even this really cleans up the back and forth and makes the draft comment more prominent than it is in the audio

Siskind has this pinned post because she prefers a Facebook audience that is more easily lied to.

Siskindโ€™s post is intentionally inflammatory in the exact way sheโ€™d accuse a right wing source of being intentionally inflammatory. this scans because she is, for all intents and purposes, right wing.

08.03.2026 23:12 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 164    ๐Ÿ” 4    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 5    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

listen, this isnโ€™t a lie, but itโ€™s really close.

when you google it, the top source is Siskindโ€™s own Facebook page.

the actual audio is just a meaningless blanket statement from which no one should draw any conclusions.

no actual news source has covered the quote, including Fox.

Birth of a Nation is a misunderstood film, IMO, depiction is not endorsement, and DW Griffith's contributions to cinematography shouldn't be overshadowed by the fact that some people decided to interpret his film as supporting controversial political agendas.

Wait, I just found some clips online.
That's... look, I'll take Griffith at his word that he wasn't trying to seem borderline-fanatically bigoted, but really man; this could have used a second draft.

Huh. The film's treatment of Lincoln is surprisingly sympathetic. I think I can see what Griffith was going for, but some of the choices he made really detract from the more nuanced ideas he wanted to put across (why do the black characters speak like that?)

someone at the farmer's market this morning was selling onigiri, which i've never actually had before, but, based on the past experience i do have, they should increase my hit points substantially

yes, when Tapper talked about how this will be framed *in the future* he was really instead talking about a secret current talking point but did not frame his question that way for reasons known only to the gods.

deleted the Jenny McCarthy post because it was some obscure satire site. i'll put the link below. honestly, there's almost nothing in this that isn't completely believable from RFK and friends.

and i'm keeping the reply i quoted because i like it.
