No, they just need a soundbite for Fox News. Stunning how easy it is.

"Yeah, heard that story. Some libtard planted that Nazi flag."

Fox won't come out and state it was planted, they just plant the idea in their viewer's minds and away we go.

I see the same sort of unquestioning belief on lemmy every day. But oh my fuck are liberals harder to brainwash than conservatives. If you see some boolshit on here, at least someone questions it in the comments. Goose steppers fall in line, no questions, and no questions allowed.
