Let's just say that you have a poor history of telling the truth (to
be kind).
Bullshit.
Post by NoBodyThe quotation NBC relies upon uses the infamous "..." to
show that they removed context.
And *this* is why Bradley says "Nobody" makes shit up. No one accused "Nobody"
of lying about the presence of the ellipsis (a word previously unknown to her).
"Nobody" was accused, correctly, of making shit up for saying that its presence
signals the removal of context. *That* is the shit that "Nobody" made up. There
was no context removed. In fact, the use of the ellipsis by NBC was incorrect,
because they didn't remove any text from the sentence at the point where the
<restore>
NBC: "Industrial strength significantly increased...driven by the creation
of a unified Reich."
BBC: "Industrial strength and production had significantly increased driven
by the creation of a unified Reich".
NBC's use of the ellipsis is incorrect — they did not omit any words at the
point where the ellipsis occurs. Because NBC omitted the words "and production
had," they should have written it like this:
"Industrial strength...significantly increased driven by the creation of a
unified Reich."
And that *still* would not be removing any "context." It would be omitting some
superfluous words to make a shorter sentence, while still *preserving* the context.
It's not "fake news" at all. Trump did *not* know that the reference to "unified
Reich" predates the Nazis when he approved the posting of the 100+ year old
headline to his shit-mouthed social media page. He saw it, thought "Yeah, I want
to create a 'unified Reich' in America, just like Hitler," and approved it.
The word "Reich" originally meant "empire" or "realm" or "nation." Now it
exclusively refers to Hitler's Third Reich (das Dritte Reich). That's the *only*
meaning that remains.
Question: if the use of it is so innocuous, why did Trump take it down?
Hmmmmmmm? What a load of shit everything connected to Trump is.
