A popular video circulating among right wing twitter users claims to show someone the left supports acting in a manner the general public might not approve of. However, we have uncovered several falsehoods and problematic themes within the video: 1. The video is deceptively edited. Although the video is a single cut of a 5 minute long incident, the people who released the clip deliberately choose to not include footage of the person in the incident several days before the incident occurred when they were doing things unrelated to the incident. Without this additional context, it’s difficult to really know what happened to lead up to this particular incident that appears to show someone who the left supports acting inappropriately. For all we know, the person in the video may have had good reasons to do the horrifying things shown in the video.
