Criminal Intent [View all]
I don't think enough attention is being given by the news media or even most social media people, to the fact that the US government is overtly lying, trying to frame innocent people with complete fabrications, like photoshopped "MS-13" tattoos that don't exist or arrests that never happened.
I mean Mango Mussolini trafficking in that fake photo should be a much bigger deal. Much bigger. Like that should genuinely be the only thing we are talking about big. It is a bald face lie that is easily disproved. That we have been conditioned to be so dismissive of his lies that we seem to have given up holding him accountable for anything he says or does and that is a very dangerous place to be.
This ridiculous framing of immigrants as, essentially, all being criminals is toxic and incredibly poor reflection on our country. We are in serious trouble and we need to start acting like it (not saying we are not but more a general statement of news media and even social media, as a whole).
