I wonder how many of our maga friends were convinced the car explosion in NY today was a terrorist attack due to the right wing ecosphere they get their info from?

Just read an article from CBC the Canadian government hasn't ruled out terrorism.  I wish the news and government apparatus on our side was not always in a rush for a snap answer.  For all we know this could have been a planned attack.  I would wait for forensic evidence, background on the driver etc. before I made a conclusion.  I'm not convinced one way or the other yet.

This article? https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/hamilton/rainbow-bridge-explosion-niagara-1.7036398

The driver was a 56 year old nearby resident of New York who was driving a $300,000 Bentley on his way home from a casino after the Kiss concert he originally wanted to see was cancelled. Fox spent all day scaring their viewers that it was an act of terrorism by someone who snuck into our country. 

Not that article, the dateline on the one I read was a few hours before this one and didn't have any details about the driver or the car.  And also stated that senior Canadian government officials hadn't yet ruled out terrorism.  It was the first non us news article I could find once I read about this incident on this thread.  Had I not been reading AMT I would have been blissfully unaware of any cars being engulfed in flames today.

So then you can certainly see the stark difference between how the CBC and mainstream media in the U.S handled it verses the right wing ecosphere. A few hours before this article was when Fox and their maga cohorts were in the middle of their fever dreams of an open border terrorist incident. That's the point. 

Faux gets people killed their warped viewers swallow every drop of misinformation! The young boy who got stabbed to death by that white monster of a man was one of those viewers!

30 Screen Shots of Republicans Who Spread Lies About a "Terrorist Attack"

Receipts? As usual, we got them.

A 56 year old man from western NY crashed his car today at high speed near the Rainbow Bridge border checkpoint from the US into Canada. He was reportedly supposed to be at a Kiss concert that was cancelled, so he decided to go to a Niagara Falls casino in Canada with his wife in their $300,000 Bentley. Unfortunately for them, they both died in a fiery crash.

Since Fox News and right-wing Republicans have been anxiously waiting for a terrorist attack related to border security to blame on Biden, the disinformation machine kicked into high gear. A lone Fox News reporter, Alexis McAdams, claimed that she had a source that told her the vehicle was "full of explosives" and that it was a "terrorist attack."

This was the moment right wing politicians, media hosts, and influencers have been waiting three years for. Finally, an act of terrorism connected to the border that they could weaponize for political purposes. 

While these deranged lies were being posted into the toxic right wing social media echo system and on Fox, I was busy screen shotting them for posterity. It was all the usual suspects.

Enjoy!

Rotten brains.

That was a great laugh, particularly Larana Bobert and her trying to sound all smart with the “laws of ‘basic sovereignty’.” Perhaps she could enumerate those “laws of basic sovereignty” for us?

What a cult.

she should stick to what she knows about. like guns, theater, and handys.

Yes of course that is crystal clear. It's why I prefer the way that cbc or bbc presents the news in a fairly even handed manner and doesn't jump to conclusions right away one way or another.  I agree that the Fox and right wing eco system is too extreme, I just question that US left leaning sources sometimes jump to be the opposite of that no matter what the cost.  It's also a problem of the 24 hr news cycle world.  Everyone wan't to be the first to get the scoop and sometimes that leaves the real story behind.  

Like I said I didn't even know there was an explosion until I read your post, so I googled and looked at the first non US news source that I find trustworthy and looked there.

How has 30% of the country lost all ability to think rationally? 

Underfunding rural and poor inner city schools for years.

and they're getting internet.

thanks brondin

Great with internet now they can really get educated by doing their own research. Poor schooling plus optimized internet access equals real intelligence.

I agree, the internet is important for many things. However, It sure seems to be the ONLY friend some people have.
What a pathetic and sad existence… 

I agree with you Linda. I think we would be much better off without the internet.  We would certainly have an easier time getting tickets to shows at reasonable prices.

Screw that GPS is the greatest thing ever remember those family trips with my mom trying to read the map to my dad 😂😂😂

My mom and dad knew how to read a map!  We actually have an atlas in our car that we use for road trips!  In a city however we use the GPS.  Pretty sure we could have GPS without the internet though.

But... they didn't didn't, though? They spent much of the day saying they don't know if it was terrorism or not until they had more information....just like the CBC did.

You said yourself you didn't  know it even happened until seeing it posted here so it's odd that you complaining about coverage you did not even consume.

Your first post was that you wondered how many MAGAs or whatever thought this was terrorism due to the right wing ecosystem.  I looked at an unbiased source at the time I read your comment where one of the western governments that police the border hadn't ruled out terrorism.  To me it is not unreasonable that someone could think an explosion at a border crossing was terrorism or some type of coordinated attack.  Once more facts were known obviously that was an unreasonable conclusion, but at the time that I read your post it was not yet ruled out.

Not being ruled out is not the same thing as blatantly telling people this was an act of terrorism and blaming Joe Biden's open border policy right? 

Responsible media outlets in the United States spent the day telling viewers they did not know exactly what happened yet, while the right wing ecosphere, as demonstrated if you scroll up a few posts, was breathlessly telling their viewers and followers we were basically at war.

So, yeah, it seems very reasonable to wonder how many magas thought it was an act of terrorism based on the shady outlets of which they get their "news."

to me it is worse that many of those right wing sources were not only reporting that it was terrorism, but actively hoping that it was. presumably to own the libs yet again.
