Notice how they're trying to smear the victim, not bring the perpetrator to justice

They're doing it because murdering wine moms is the MAGA wet dream

You’re 100% right.

This whole smear thing serves the same purpose as ‘if you don’t want to get shot, just comply with legal orders’. Normalize the messaging and then the assumption is that they were doing things they shouldn’t have been.

We won’t believe it for this one, but after it keeps happening, people start accepting it as inescapable.

It’s gross, but unfortunately it’s effective.
