What gets me is that they ran the clip without really checking into its authenticity to ensure ... SWBTATTReg Feb 2019 #2

The OP for the original flame fest said "It's all over Face Book." So obviously it must be true... Hekate Feb 2019 #19

Absolutely true and a truly sad thing in that people fall for such things so easily. Nothing ... SWBTATTReg Feb 2019 #22

I've seen it there twice. But if people like me don't counter it, then who will? n/t pnwmom Feb 2019 #45

My heartfelt thanks for being there to do it. Hekate Feb 2019 #50

Apparently a group called the "Justice Democrats". I had not heard of them. Will avoid in future. manor321 Feb 2019 #3

No, they are legitimately worried that oldsters DemocracyMouse Feb 2019 #59

So supposed friends of Democrats post a post so doctored GulfCoast66 Feb 2019 #75

I don't think they give their legitimate concerns any support by posting doctored videos pnwmom Feb 2019 #77

The doctored video worked on you. wasupaloopa Feb 2019 #90

Senator Feinstein is not almighty God. Pobeka Feb 2019 #102

Wrong on all counts. Feinstein has been fighting for the environment for decades. yardwork Feb 2019 #108

We'll be hearing from them more and more.... VarryOn Feb 2019 #10

Look at FACTS, not propaganda. elleng Feb 2019 #12

Sorry, I'm still uncertain about whether you are in support... LAS14 Feb 2019 #17

Nathan Phillips? hughee99 Feb 2019 #23

Did he do that? ismnotwasm Feb 2019 #24

I saw the first video and then the full video, and that seems to be what happened. hughee99 Feb 2019 #25

It wasn't that misleading, don't get too hung up on the right wing victimhood display Downtown Hound Feb 2019 #61

So you watched the first video, then you watched the full video hughee99 Feb 2019 #94

I saw a bunch of religious bigots who happened to be black and Jewish Downtown Hound Feb 2019 #96

In the originally released version, you had a bunch of white kids harassing hughee99 Feb 2019 #98

In this "selectively edited" video as you call it Downtown Hound Feb 2019 #99

See, the easy part from my standpoint is that I do not hughee99 Feb 2019 #103

Chose to ignore any other reason these kids might have an issue with them Downtown Hound Feb 2019 #105

My point was that context matters. The first video took all of it out. hughee99 Feb 2019 #107

Pretty much Downtown Hound Feb 2019 #109

Just to clarify, the reason I don't care about your opinion isn't because it doesn't matter, it's hughee99 Feb 2019 #112

I am curious the name Sunshine Veritas is used for the group kimbutgar Feb 2019 #26

The group is called th Sunshine Movement. Sunshine Veritas is a rip on the O'keefe style editing. nt chowder66 Feb 2019 #52

Republicans, of course. ooky Feb 2019 #27

What's their agenda? jalan48 Feb 2019 #35

They posted this on twitter. I'm looking through it now and will check their FB page where Autumn Feb 2019 #37

Thanks. I'm just curious about the "agenda" thing. jalan48 Feb 2019 #39

Their agenda seems to be climate centered from looking through the twitter feeds. Autumn Feb 2019 #40

Looking around, twitter and different places I'm shocked at how the reaction to the kids, GND Autumn Feb 2019 #70

The most important question is how are we are going to deal with climate change? jalan48 Feb 2019 #72

The fossil fuel industry will fight anything that threatens them. They have fought science for years Autumn Feb 2019 #80

Yes. That's why I'm happy to see these young folks out protesting and asking for action. jalan48 Feb 2019 #81

It's well past time. Where is the urgency? Climate change is going to be a catastrophe of historic Autumn Feb 2019 #83

I know right. And one of the first things Feinstein said when the kid asked about her support jalan48 Feb 2019 #84

That was a WTF moment. The girl who brought up the bloated military budget captured my heart. See Autumn Feb 2019 #85

I've been following Greta in the news. Her actions are barely being noticed here in the US. It is jalan48 Feb 2019 #87

It needs to be cut. Our politicians, D's and R's overwhelmingly voted to give the military 82 Autumn Feb 2019 #89

It's the elephant in the room that never gets debated in any meaningful way. jalan48 Feb 2019 #93

It almost seems so. Autumn Feb 2019 #95

The video was indeed doctored. lapucelle Feb 2019 #43

It was edited. But nothing was there that wasn't said, nothing was added to it. nt Autumn Feb 2019 #53

It was manipulated. Pieces were cut out and then spliced together. It's propaganda. lapucelle Feb 2019 #60

Edited yes. But nothing was added or falsified and the full video was available on their page. Autumn Feb 2019 #62

Manipulative editing is a propaganda technique. lapucelle Feb 2019 #64

I'm not defending it. I'm just posting what I see, like you are doing. Autumn Feb 2019 #66

I didn't say you were defending it, lapucelle Feb 2019 #67

Yes, but only those who are morally bankrupt edit to distort honest dialogue. lapucelle Feb 2019 #106

Ask those doctored the video, those who posted it, and those who promoted it. N/T lapucelle Feb 2019 #44

You are the one saying "their agenda" not me. jalan48 Feb 2019 #48

Here's the definition of the word: lapucelle Feb 2019 #57

That's just a definition. You thought it was important enough to use it in the headline of jalan48 Feb 2019 #58

I think their agenda is their list or outline of things to be considered or done lapucelle Feb 2019 #63

They want her to resign and their candidate be put in her place. haele Feb 2019 #71

I don't think they believe they can get Feinstein to leave office, she's very powerful and was just jalan48 Feb 2019 #74

There's a good reason Fuzzpope Feb 2019 #36
