    Were those the ads where they pretended they had video from raids where people were burning down their warehouses because of all the truth they tell but the videos were just poorly scripted and acted?

      I wish I could just live in the real world. Still weirded out about that footage that came out of the Syrian civil war of people rehearsing running then falling to the ground dead.

      Was it the “moderates” trying to get better coverage or was it Assad trying to convince us that the civilians dying weren’t? Or hell was it just some movie being made and someone selectively edited and relabeled it to make it support a narrative? It’s like inception layers of misinformation and I am revolted by it.
