Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Oswald never fired a gun that day. He tested negative for GSR.

No, but the CIA reincarnated Lenin using Juche necromancy and placed him on the grassy knoll

You don't have to recite basic history to me.

None of the witnesses who saw the shooter definitively ID’d Oswald or placed blame on him. Most of his coworkers’ testimonies suggest that they only saw him go upstairs alone during the motorcade, or leaving after JFK is shot. It seems a bit silly to have this complex conspiracy and not coerce or stage a single testimony that says with 100% conviction “yup I saw Mr. Oswald on top aiming his sniper rifle right down at the president” if your goal is to frame an innocent man

Your reasoning seems pretty backwards, “there’s no evidence he did it, so he probably did” is what your comment reads like.

The reasoning that “the CIA carried out a complex assassination plot and failed to place witnesses to implicate a patsy” is dumber

[–] RedDawn@hexbear.net 1 points 3 months ago

No it’s not. All of the evidence points to that being the case. Is it possible you’re just not familiar with the facts of the case?
