(2012) in short they show people protest videos and tell each that the protest is about something different. Depending on their ‘inherent biases’ they answer questions about said protest differently. Ergo a video cannot “speak for itself”

>>bethek+Gl
Is this why the same protest videos can be recycled multiple times for multiple different purposes

This is also why the era of pervasive videotaping of everything hasn’t ended disputes over basic facts of what happened.

Yes, and now we have billionaires arguing in public about such basic facts:

The in-progress community notes are a shit show too.

I saw the video and saw someone trying to avoid the ICE agent, but also being EXTREMELY reckless about driving a huge SUV close to people with guns. Everyone is at fault here imo.

The ICE agents WANTED to use guns, they just put themselves in a position where a seemingly trivial action by the driver could be twisted to be perceived as enough of a threat to justify pulling a gun out and shooting them multiple times in the head. Murderers with a badge.

If you believe all that, which I assume the woman in the car did, why did she push the gas pedal? If the ICE agents wanted to shoot someone as you say, doesn't that logically also imply that the woman in the car wanted to be shot at? The logic goes both ways.

Of course, consequences matter, hopefully the ICE agent is prosecuted, fired, and jailed.
