They by no means be taught.
5 years in the past, late-night “satirists” like John Oliver and Seth Meyers did all they may to downplay the rampant destruction tied to the BLM protests.
Right here’s how NBC’s “Late Night time with Seth Meyers” lined up the relentless Portland riots following George Floyd’s March 2020 demise.
“Our authorities used graffiti to justify sending secret police to an American metropolis to abduct protesters in unmarked vans with out telling them who they’re, the place they’re going or why they’re being arrested … What they’re truly doing is even worse. They’re snatching peaceable protesters off the road. They’re kidnapping folks and never even telling them what they’re being charged with.”
“Final Week Tonight” host John Oliver echoed Meyers speaking factors again in 2020. The HBO comedian went additional, attacking Fox Information for primarily getting the story proper.
Sound acquainted? The speaking factors haven’t modified since 2020. We’re listening to the identical progressive rhetoric tied to the current L.A. riots over ICE brokers conducting lawful raids.
It’s taking place once more, and it shouldn’t be stunning at this level. Late-night liberals twist the reality like a pretzel to suit their hard-Left narratives. This is identical motley crew that lied about President Joe Biden’s psychological decline for four-plus years.
Pretending riots aren’t riots is a cakewalk for them.
Earlier this week, Stephen Colbert downplayed the riots by way of a comedy “sketch” mocking President Trump for a minor hit upon the Air Pressure One stairs.
Now, Jimmy Kimmel is deceptive his viewers, once more, by telling them the riots aren’t taking place. His proof?
Look outdoors his posh studio. No riots.
Actually.
Kimmel says in Hollywood issues are principally peaceable — & endorses the rebellion:
“I’m very indignant, I’ve to say. I can’t consider what’s occurring. I knew it was going to be unhealthy, I didn’t comprehend it was going to be this unhealthy. Individuals who have lived right here their entire lives, individuals who… pic.twitter.com/S5YWphJopd

“I’m very indignant, I’ve to say. I can’t consider what’s occurring. I knew it was going to be unhealthy, I didn’t comprehend it was going to be this unhealthy. Individuals who have lived right here their entire lives, individuals who have been on this metropolis longer than I’ve, the overwhelming majority of whom have by no means executed something mistaken, are being kidnapped, which is the proper phrase to make use of, by brokers in masks, hiding their identities, grabbing folks off the road and at work, sending folks to detention facilities.
“And to protest that, which isn’t solely our proper as Individuals, it’s our accountability, Los Angelenos gathered to show &, with only a few exceptions, peacefully show to voice their opposition to this disgusting & pointless abuse of energy instigated by our mentally in poor health president, who’s dead-set on exacerbating this, who truly needs battle, who’s deliberately inflaming & mendacity to make it seem to be there’s a struggle occurring. He needs there to be a struggle occurring right here & he doesn’t care who will get damage in it.
“There’s no riot outdoors. We now have extra so-called ‘unrest’ right here when one in all our groups wins a championship.”
He’s not indignant on the looters who ransacked companies … or the thugs who tried to kill law enforcement officials by hurling massive bricks at them … or any of the opposite lawless, violent actions taken by the “peaceable protesters.”
Nothing reveals it’s actually about federal immigration coverage like a looted Apple Retailer
Make no mistake:
The true function is anarchy and the destabilization of American society

Nor did he shed one in all his many tears over the victims of unlawful immigrant crime lately.
It’s noteworthy that there aren’t any jokes in his rant. He’s a comic, no less than on paper.
To be honest, propagandists put yuks approach down on the precedence record.
