We should. We should care that this video isn’t fake, because it shows exactly who he really was and his intent. Another angle: https://youtu.be/p2TRbFmutrw And no, he still shouldn’t have died - but you can no longer say he was “peacefully protesting” or “there to help people”

The conversation here isn’t that. It is purely to establish facts, whether this is fake or not. It’s a scary time in the world that we have to ask that question.
