you should remove the “intentionally”
It all depends on whether or not the terror aspect works. If it keeps getting covered as “journalist randomly catches rubber bullet” and they keep calling the peaceful protests “riots,” it means nothing.
If the truth continues to be covered and spoken about openly, it does mean something, and there is still hope of the truth winning out in the end.
This is excellent art.
Do we know the name of the cowardly cop who shot her in the back yet?
Not sure, but the IDF didn’t waste any time in recruiting them: https://chaser.com.au/world/la-cop-drafted-to-idf-after-shooting-journalist/
Yes I’m Aware It’s Satire
Almost missed the small print there!
“They’re a natural,” said a representative for the IDF, “they’ll fit right in, as long as they stop using those rubber bullets.”
Goodies and Baddies are determined by who are the Winners
If the Nazis had won, our history books would be full of content of how they had to beat the evil followers of democracy
Moral relativism is brain and soul poison.
pretty much everyone is a ‘baddy’ but some are vastly worse than others
Kind of, a bit greyer there, first depends if it remains sustainable, though I’d like to point out the US at least. While some states do want to push for a cover up. It’s fair to say that overall american history still notes the atrocities that say the US forced on the Native Americans. or say Asian Americans in WW2 etc… Of course that’s also because the US kept a free press so far. With enough corporate or government control of the press, it’s very likely “patriotic history” will replace objective history.
The victors don’t write the history books. Historians write the history books. And much of our narrative is defined by those sources, at least historically.
History written by the Victor tends to be accepted easily
Historians write the history books.
Unless the victors silence them.
But some victors won’t allow for an unbiased account…
There’s always external witnesses to record things from a different perspective
I don’t know man, killing millions of jews makes you the baddies. America has been the baddies off and on as well, no one is a monolith. Slavery, Trail of Tears, etc.
They might still be the baddies, but they control the history, just look at the USSR… well and Russia to this day
Ask the Chinese about Tiananmen Square.
