Imagine not realizing project veritas is a HORRIBLE source. They have littering been caught red-handed doctoring videos

The fact you're criticising the publisher and not the raw video footage just proves there's more to it to me.

Do you know what a Gish Gallop is? Do you know why they work? no? lets move on then. The creditability of the author MATTERS especially when the author has been known to edit videos to make it look like the subject said something they didn't. Im not spending 2 hours of my life to timestamp every single malicious edit. Do you remember that "Who Is America?" show?

Source?

Imagine casually dismissing a megacorp exec literally confessing to wanting to interfere in your country's election.

1. At the very least source your claims.

2. Point out which parts of the linked post are doctored or in any way false.

Veritas is a known alt right group that manufactures misinformation.

Which part (if any) of the linked post is manufactured or disinformation?
