Lemmy, what conservative fearmongering do you find laughably incorrect?
-
The recent protesting in Los Angeles. It was actually small, organized, and nonviolent.
It was a little bigger than the protests that happen nearly every year but the conservative media portrayed it as the entire city being in full riot mode.
I've been seeing the same thing with New York on yt. Single channel posting straight up "Immigrants Looting New York", "New York Destroyed By Gangs" type of bullshit using what looks exactly like AI imagery for the thumbnails.
Hell, I don't even need to see the video title or channel responsible to know it has to be bullshit if they're willing to use AI generated images in the thumbnail.

An oldie but goodie, how the tea party fucks always ranted about FEMA death camps. It was beyond absurd.
Yah, I mean a disaster agency running death camps was always farfetched. OTOH we have clear precedent of the US gov running death camps vis-a-vis the Native American reservations, Japanese-American concentration camps, the shit they did in the Philippines....Ironically, it actually isn't super crazy to think that the US would put you in a death camp if they decided you were the 'wrong' minority (waves hands at current events). They were just wrong about ever being even remotely targeted for that.
