No "two different realities" bullshit. One side is calling for release of the video, and the other is not.
NEWS --> Tons of fresh detail on what video of the strike shows: Rep Adam Smith says two men are sitting on capsized boat, drugs aren't visible. Rationale officials gave for killing is they *may* have been able to keep trafficking.

And what would it mean to call for "reinforcements" in this fictitious war?
Get more cocaine that would likely be bound for Europe (per Sec. Rubio) where it would be sold to willing buyers?
Including the actual facts when asking these questions makes it clear how absurd it all is.

This really lays bare how absurd the manufactured war theory is:
A shipwrecked survivor of a Hellfire missile strike on his small burning vessel is supposed to do... what, exactly, to show he is not "in the fight"?
When there is no war, applying the law of war is an exercise in absurdity.

the only information about this arrest by Kash Patel’s FBI is that the person arrested is “a man” and given the fact that we just went through weeks of right-wing conspiracy theories about the J6 pipe bomber(s), it’s worth slowing all the way down as news leaks out about this arrest

I called my recipe book Sabzi – vegetables. But the name was trademarked. And my legal ordeal began
The granting of patents and trademarks to foods and words from the global south is part of a long colonial grab. It’s time to realise we share what we cook, and what we call it

It's a campaign of terror.
Her terror (and the terror of entire communities, forced into hiding) is not incidental.
It is a product they are manufacturing, a key part of the spectacle for their intended audience.
Which is the terrorized, but also the terror consumers.

Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars.
She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

It’s never been more important to be able to figure out who your actual allies are instead of the people who can make content you’re willing to hit the like button on. Your enemies will try to present themselves as your friends and tell you your friends are your enemies.
Nick Fuentes has been working overtime to sanitize his image and present himself as a uniter of the left and right. Very clearly using language often associated with the left.
This is part of a larger effort by the anti-Zionist antisemitic far right to recruit people on the left.
