    Why are people still carrying water to disprove a narrative that has exhaustively been shown to not be true? I guess in the age of misinformation an omnipresent hammer of redundancy is preferable but it’s not like the purveyors of these lies are ever going to come out and say “ok. You got us!” These articles seem to be written for an invisible middle of people who aren’t racist and somehow still managed to miss the news for the last year? It reminds me of pandering to “moderate Republicans” Dems do–it doesn’t yield results to spend your time exhaustively combatting a lie that is clearly a lie. Call it out and move on unless it will yield some result?
