Hilarious thread by a guy who noticed that body cams undermined the leftist narrative about cops so he searches for a way to oppose them without saying that it's because they destroy the left's narrative
You get the vague hand-waving that uses prog coded phrases - "they said it was about *transparency* [prog good word] but it was *actually* about *reducing liability* [prog boo word because it implies cutting off the ghetto lottery]" - in reality the cops realized that *increasing transparency did decrease liability*
Of course, the cops were giving far too much credit to progs for being sane - recall that there's a video of a cop shooting a black woman *who was in the process of trying to stab another black woman* and the prog response was to say that knife fights are a part of their culture
Video evidence of actual happenings makes progessives quite angry because even though they'll continue to believe the party line they'll feel uncomfortable because the cognitive dissonance is more powerful when they know that others knows they don't care about truth

It's an interesting 🧵 b/c you can see the full progressive verbal fog on display - he's coming out against better and more evidence - he can't just say "it makes it harder for us to control the narrative" and *he might not even know that's why it bothers him* - he just recoils
This kind of thing goes throughout the thread - no, he doesn't consider that possibility because he wants to enforce the Narrative - not to think through the consequences

Hilarious example of this was FBI belatedly providing the high definition video of the Kenosha riot to the Rittenhouse defense team
Likely that was the work of some individual who made a "mistake" because he had some residual sense of justice...

The OP is much more on the veil-production side - he's working to produce thought-terminating cliches for progs to use when they want to dismiss body cam evidence from a case
Success is if progs repeat those to dismiss a Narrative-undermining video

This is very true but there was a big cost to it - that case and that video are out there like navigation hazard for questioning progressives
Every day some number of people happen upon that footage and ask questions for the first time and pull a thread

One of their most common failure modes is "believing their own bullshit" - in this case that body cams would prove the progressive narrative about "criminal justice" because they thought it was accurate

It is actually vital that progressives *not* be seen as individuals
They operate as a team and they have very clear ways of identifying each other so they can coordinate without direct communication
It is absolutely necessary to hack this
