Black folk will tell you: The 1st thing cops say after an incident is always a lie.🤷🏿♂️
They lie because there's upside in it for them, and no downside.
No matter how many times they get caught lying, newspapers will print their next lie as the gospel truth.🤡
And people stop caring before truth hits

ICE lied about the person it shot, claiming he was a "criminal," but NBC finds that he had no criminal history whatsoever. Not even traffic tickets in 12 years! It also lied about the extent of the injuries to its agents....

this is a great and important effort! even with PLC moving out of Bluesky PBC it is important to have more replicas, especially with regional diversity and the ability to "step in" and accept ops if needed. strong endorse work in this direction.
Finally publishing this about PLC! On a day with big PLC news!!
I think the news recasts this piece into more "why that's important", and less doom hopefully!
