If you don't know the truth, at least try not to lie. Nothing I've seen in the dozens of downtown live streams jives with the smearing I've witnessed on places like r/pics and the news. It appears from the commentary that there is such vitriol towards the protesters that I wouldn't put it past some opposition group to fly defamatory flags that have no apparent connection to why they are protesting. A prominent trusted newspaper even ran a cartoon presenting the trucks as fascist... for protesting against a perceived government overreach. What kind of cognitive dissonance is going on there?
