Is this how conservatives use fake pictures to hurt students against gun violence?

Talk bout fake news, it is apparent that Conservatives are using a fake picture to hurt Emma Gonsolez and the students that are apposed to gun violence. They took a picture of the student ripping up a target and transformed it digitally to a picture looking like the same student was ripping up the Constitution and then spread it on the internet.Sometimes I am ashamed of the people in this country. In case you think that this is fake, I gave you two links. Google it and you can get another half dozen, although I could not find a conservative outlet running the story. Maybe you can.
 

And Liberals don't spread fake news?
 
People lie. Welcome to the internet.
 

Her ripping the Constitution is actually a fairly accurate representation of what she and others were verbally doing. These kids decided to enter the political arena and are fair game.

For lies? You are OK with that?
 
It's a meme. Welcome to the internet.

Moreover, this is the position the Left and the media has put children in as they use them to push their agenda. Don't like it? Blame them for making children their little jack booted foot soldiers.

"jack booted?" I made a similar reference months ago and someone called "Godwin" on me.......post #9 good on you!
 

It was made as a joke, a tasteless one but a joke nonetheless.

Now leftist news sites seem to be turning it into a strawman.

DId you think that GIF of Trump attacking the CNN logo was Trump really attacking the CNN logo?

No, I'm just saying that Liberals are just as bad with fake news. I'm not a conservative anyway, I'm an independent, more Libertarian.
 


Those students are not just protesting violence committed with guns.They are protesting for elected officials to **** all over the 2nd amendment. So visually that photoshop picture represents her and other anti-2nd amendment protesters are doing.

This is obviously a parody/satire. You’re all mad because it’s believable, isn’t it? That’s the best type of satire. It’s a comedic reflection of reality.

conservatives do just as much look at the bs that hannity did with Seth Richards. Don’t act like conservatives are angels.
 
Lets step off the soap box. When anti rights groups can call semi automatic rifles "machine guns" and not get corrected by supposed legitimate media outlets or run those outlets run segments when so called experts use terms like "full semi auto" nothing said about Fake News. You choose to get upset with a satire site making a meme as too far?


The images together are great a: "what you think your doing verse what you really are." it could easily be a powerful piece pop art

I didn't. When the hell did I say conservatives were angels?! I'm not even a conservative, I'm a libertarian
 
The left are the self-proclaimed intellectuals that don't grasp simple forms of symbolism, go figure.

Their entire worldview is based on fake news, its evident by their inability to ever defend their positions with fact, logic and reasoning. It's all "nuh uh", "fake news" and stupid deflections

I've noticed quite consistently that abstract representations (in word or picture) are triggers.
