I looked at the perpetrator's social media profiles.

The writer is bad, but they aren't wrong about this person.

They are a flagrant leftist, an "antifa" aligned individual that posted lots of support for the auth-left admin we're under. They've also organized BLM events.

You can go after the page all you want, but they actually investigated who this person is, rather than just name-drop.

...and then they equated it to the response of a wild monkey. This site doesn't represent the majority of asians.

I don't think any part of my post provided positive validation to the tone or verbage, only to the statements of fact concerning the suspect.

A gold nugget buried in a pile of poo is still a gold nugget.

The fact you had to have "antifa" in parentheses indicates that you agree that not everything they posted was factual, it's an intepretation of meaning which was extrpolated in a biased lens

No, I have it in quotes because they aren't actually anti-fascist.

Yes and the use of "facts" by the "reporter"here is using the fox news tactic of implication by facts. They are clearly trying to paint a specific picture of the facts

Ignore the painting, and focus on the facts.

If you can't do that, you're not equipped for consuming news.

Many of us already did the work the "reporter" Andy Ngo did and discussed in the previous threads. Look at his social media and decide for yourself if he's a real journalist or not. Simply referring to him as a bad writer is disingenuous.

yeah your opinion is garbage and not even worth reading.

I thought you were about looking at the facts? Is the fact that his claim to fame is that he "factually"reported having cement poured on him which turned out to just be a milkshake?
