This meme was actually flagged by Facebook for misinformation, the first time I’ve seen them do that to TO98% in awhile. Fortunately, I don’t have to worry about Locals flagging me for fact checking it here, like I do on FB!

▪️Djokovic did say this, but it wasn’t in reference to Simone Biles at all. Here’s the context from a Reuters story 6 days ago:

🔹 “Steffi Graf is the only tennis player to have won all four Grand Slams and an Olympic gold in the same year before. But the 34-year-old Serbian is three-fifths of the way there, needing a Tokyo gold and then the U.S. Open trophy to match the German's 1988 feat.”

🔹”Talk of the "Golden Slam" has dominated every press conference Djokovic has attended since he won the third major of the year at Wimbledon this month. But the steely-eyed Serbian seems to thrive under pressure.”

🔹"Pressure is a privilege," Djokovic said when asked about the attention on him after reaching the singles quarter-finals and also winning a mixed doubles match on Wednesday.

▪️The quote was in reference to himself and his Olympic pressure, not Biles. Granted, his meltdown was embarrassing, but this was a deliberate, dishonest framing of the quote.

Just incredible. After posting a meme blaming Charlie Kirk for his own murder, they post another a few hours later applauding Democrats for their civility.

Also, if you look at the Occupy Democrats timeline, their posts “denouncing political violence” were variations on “no one should be shot…BUT here’s a quote from Kirk showing he’s a terrible person.” Or sometimes they’d leave the first part out altogether and just attack him. There are no posts denouncing violence without qualifiers trying to gin up their base.

It’s really incredible they’re trying this approach after 4 years of posting “Ridin’ with Biden” memes.

It’s funny to see the left use the same conspiratorial rhetoric as the right did a year ago regarding the jobs numbers being downwardly revised. So many on the right, who knew nothing of how the jobs numbers are calculated or why they revise them, were convinced the downward revisions were a conspiracy to help Biden win.

If people want to have a debate about the birth death model or the survey methods, ok, but that’s not what’s happening here. Most people are under the delusion that the BLS report is the govt reporting every job created and lost, and are thus easily swayed it’s rigged when it suits their political ends.
