It’s crazy how when a lie takes hold, it just stays forever.

Another is relayed to January 6th protests. A friend today, a conservative DeSantis supporter, told me that he knew that on January 6th, the protestors killed several police officers.

This is, as we know now, absolutely false. It was based on a rumor, and once the reporting caught up, it turned out to be false.

Similarly I’m sure there will be Canadians who know that there were these mass unmarked child graves at schools. But again: totally false.
