Yeah they also might have found Bigfoot and the Loch Ness monster in the reactor but they could be hiding that too.

my point is that I’m not all about knowing “the other side” covers shit up and then assuming “my side” is telling the truth.

they all lie. about literally everything.

It’s actually asserting without evidence to back up the claim

Do you need evidence when people make claims that fit your world view or do you just accept them because they feel good?

I have evidence the US has lied to the public. I’m asking you if you need it.

This comment chain is evidence of diminished intelligence or a deliberate effort to twist things.

I’m not gonna engage with your bad faith arguing.

Gulf of Tonkin. It’s a lie. The US covered it up. Yadda yadda. it tracks with what the og post was about. All nations do this. have a good day.
