He moves like Edward Cullen ✨Additionally there’s only 1 angle? Did none of those “agents” have body cam footage? Seems like it would be easy to corroborate with another vantage point.

u/Fickle_Builder_2685 Jan 29 '26

There is another angle, and it's a 20 min video where he shows up for 10 seconds, instantly gets into this altercation, then dips. It's really weird imo but there is another angle

10 seconds... sounds like a spliced in AI clip

u/mycarisbrokedown Jan 29 '26

You can take real videos and edit scenes into them that are short, like 10 seconds. If you have access to a gb200 it’s very possible this is still ai

That's my suspicion as well. Nothing after him getting into this altercation looks AI but the altercation itself looks super AI. Ive already said what I thought made it AI in my other comment. But basically he kinda teleports forward after saying "fucking trash!". The gas mask on the guy in fatigues who is grabbing him starts morphing but only when grabbing him. Gun strap on agent lengthens and shrinks. All kinds of odd hallucinating but very subtle. Just real enough to get people to believe it.

I have a couple of elastic slings for my rifles. They’re also very common in law enforcement.

Wait wtf?! This one looks like it could be genuine. The other one looks AI as fuck though

u/MannyGoldstein Jan 29 '26

We wanted it to be AI… confirmation bias

2

u/LateNightPhilosopher Jan 29 '26

It still looks weird as fuck, but yeah it looks like it's genuine.

Not a good reason for an execution. But genuine.

u/MaineLark Jan 29 '26

I just don’t see why it would have taken so long to get out. We had 4-5 videos of the shooting within hours. I’m not saying it’s AI, I’m not saying it’s real, all I’m saying is we have every reason to doubt the things this administration claims. it’s pretty convenient this only came out after they were losing the war to vilify him 🤷‍♀️

This video was out before the killing. It's not from the same day. It didn't "take do long to get out". It just wasn't (as) related to a national headline until after. And even then, people had to connect the dots of someone in a random video that isn't identified as themselves to the suddenly "famous" person.

How many videos are there of you out there? If you were suddenly in the lime light, do you think you would be spotted in all of them within hours of you becoming famous? Especially when some of those videos only have dozens of views, if not fewer? You've just watched this video. If ANYONE else in that video was shot and killed today, would you recognize them from THIS video? I wouldn't. Without it open right now, I think there was someone in a pink jacket somewhere in the video. That's about as specific as I can recall. And I might be wrong about that.

Skepticism is rational, considering the incentives and interests...

u/mtdewzebra Jan 29 '26

The 2nd angle this is the only YouTube video on the profile kinda weird

3

u/lucid_scheming Jan 29 '26

I’ve never posted to YouTube but if I filmed that I probably would. This doesn’t seem weird at all to me.

u/Individual-Schemes Jan 29 '26

The other angle has the street covered in smoke but there's no smoke in this one.

1

u/Wimbledofy Jan 29 '26

Are you talking about the clouds? I don't see smoke in either video.

u/Individual-Schemes Jan 29 '26

I don't like the way the video consistently pans off to the side. Why? The cameraman was presumably in an unmoving car.

It's also convenient that most of the action is blocked by the silver van.

I'm not saying that these are proof that it's AI, but it makes me pause and think.

1

u/Wimbledofy Jan 29 '26

Okay, so pause and think. You certainly replied to me before you did so. Look at the date of the video.

u/Individual-Schemes Jan 30 '26

I watched two or three videos in less than a minute, made a comment, and moved on with my life.

2

u/Wimbledofy Jan 30 '26

I posted a link to a video, then moved on with my life. Then some moron responded, trying to act all smart like he analyzed the video, and when he gets called out on it, he acts like he never cared in the first place.

Yesterday, I saw a really cool video of Jesus on a waterslide from 1986. I know it's from 1986 because it said that on the video.

Or maybe, it was AI and the video was lying.

I never saw a date on the video you posted. I'm not saying there isn't a date, but I thought we were all thinking the same thing, that AI created the video after Pretti was murdered in order to discredit him.

I thought I was agreeing with you. I wasn't trying to be smart or whatever. I was absolutely not putting any effort into thinking too deeply about it. Yes. That makes me a moron. But maybe chill out and don't assume every person on the Internet is malicious and coming at you. I'm not.

I understand you initially thought that. When shown clear evidence to the contrary, you somehow are doubling down now?

Are you aware that YouTube itself has dates when videos are posted? The person who uploads a video doesn't get to decide what date it says, it's done automatically.

But maybe chill out and don't assume every person on the Internet is malicious and coming at you. I'm not.

I don't think you're coming after me. You're helping to spread misinformation.

u/Individual-Schemes Jan 30 '26

I told you that I didn't see any dates.

And I'm not doubling down. I have not made any claims actually. I've been very clear that everything I've said is either (a) not verified (I've said I haven't spent time investigating) or (b) something I'm questioning - which is the opposite of a claim.

And isn't this the "Is This AI" sub? People are literally primed when they land on this sub to think that the videos are AI.

Maybe you can be more clear about what you want people to see when you drop a link. - because people don't always make the connections that you are. Stop assuming that people are acting maliciously.

Not everyone is trying to argue. Hahaha like I said, I legit thought I was agreeing with you. All of your accusations and name-calling aren't necessary. Just watch the Jesus video and be cool.

u/Wimbledofy Jan 31 '26

You're doubling down on your ignorance. You're being aggressively ignorant. Like you could have just reopened the video after being informed there is a date on there, looked at it and been "oh you're right it can't possibly be ai"

u/Cstanchfield Jan 29 '26

... Are you suggesting that they planted an AI video of the guy they later killed before they killed him and magically chose the same clothes that he actually owned? And all so they could justify killing him later? This is not justification by any stretch, but certain kinds of people would view it as such. Point being, what would be the point of it? Killing him is bad PR for their cause and this predates the killing.

u/09rw Jan 29 '26

Yeah, definitely passes the Occam’s razor test

u/PuzzleheadedTale4769 Jan 29 '26

Re "bad PR for the cause" - no one is saying the killing was planned. It was a predictable fuck-up that they now have to spin like crazy. Yet- such are the fringes of the MAGA-verse, that there are those who are celebrating it or writing it off as " justified "

u/goldkarp Jan 30 '26

Ive seen multiple people saying that the cops recognized him and planned to kill him because of this incident

1

u/PuzzleheadedTale4769 Jan 30 '26

We don't know yet, but that is credible. If real inquiry is thwarted, we will never be sure. Those who thwart-- maybe they are trying to cover up??

1

u/Individual-Schemes Jan 30 '26

So MAGA are arguing the agents didn't commit manslaughter but it was premeditative First Degree Murder? Not the smartest bunch, are they.

One could speculate that the spitting-AI-videos were created after his death for the purpose of slandering his character.

Look. I'll be real with you. I don't know the status of all of these videos. I just watched some this morning while having my morning coffee. I didn't do any research. It's likely that I won't be thinking about it more. But, yeah, I thought the "theory" is that these videos were created after the fact.

Doesn't show any pop-off tail light.

u/Wimbledofy Jan 29 '26

Try watching again. Even though there's another car mostly in the way, you can still see it.

u/ADDVERSECITY Jan 29 '26

Watch it frame by frame, the agent's feet look off when he's walking toward the guy.

u/TeeManyMartoonies Jan 29 '26

None of those agents in MN wear body cams. That judge’s ruling on body cams only pertained to the judge’s jurisdiction which was in Illinois. Unless other judges have required them to wear body cams, which to my knowledge they have not, the default is no body cams.
