Not only is it incredible verbal gymnastics to avoid saying the word "violent", it's not even proper use of the word "intensifies". The way it's written states the demonstration got even more peaceful.

Professional journalism at it's finest. Enemy of the people.

Implying that it was peaceful until the cops intensified the situation.

subtext: toxic masculinity is to blame.

^ I score the article 4 of 5 stars in the propaganda scale of disinformation.

The media is the primary enemy. Cancel them.

I get gassy when I get fucked in the ass, which is quite often.

There's an academic, Helen Platrose (sp?), I think, who was interviewed and she said that academics are post-modern and don't believe words have inherent meanings but that all language is malleable. Much like gender theory believes that gender is "assigned" at birth, they believe the definition of words are "assigned" and don't reflect an actual existing reality.

The reason why I bring that up is because, whoever proofed that ABC News Tweet, clearly doesn't believe words have meaning but PEACEFUL DOES NOT FLIPPIN' MEAN SETTING FIRES AND DAMAGING A COURT HOUSE!!!

Webster’s Dictionary: the words protesters and peaceful take on a different meaning in 2020.

It’s all dictionaries. I’m learning that printed dictionaries are important. I looked up “violence” in the Cambridge dictionary earlier, and “words,”/however they explained that was the first one to show up. Online records of language allow them to change the language so easily..

Ah.

Intense Peace.

Intensely peaceful arson, assault, and property damage.

Masks prevent COVID.

Mail-in ballots are fraud-free.

It is almost laughable that they are still trying to push this "peaceful" narrative, and how is it not obvious to everyone now (even the stupidest of leftists) that the all of MSM acts as a single entity, broadcasting a unified narrative that isn't intended to inform so much as to proselytize viewers.

Gee ABC News, wouldn't an intensely peaceful protest usually exclude things like arson and assault?
