re: #258 CuriousLurker

A lizard privately brought this story to my attention a couple of days ago because it didn’t pass the smell test. I agreed that it didn’t. Lo and behold the next day Geller was screeching about it on Whirled Nuts Daily: “Hundreds of shots’ by men chanting ‘Allahu Akbar’.”

Of course, the story was nothing but the usual RWNJ assholes & bigots trying to gin up fear out of a big fat nothing-burger of a story. I suggest everyone keep their skeptic’s hat firmly in place until after the November elections.

I saw a couple of my “friends” (the few that are part-time-RWNJs so I haven’t unfollowed or deleted yet) on Facebook post the story with a lot of nonsense about “Why is the media covering this up?” The next day a friend of mine that works at Snopes posted the “Relax wingnuts” debunking post.

It was so obviously bullshit (including the fact that no one in the picture that was passed around with it looked to be “Middle Eastern Looking”.) Does no one have a bullshit detector anymore? This goes beyond the usual Weapons-Grade Confirmation Bias™.
