      … Wow.

      You’re right.

      … It literally worked minutes ago, I was able to watch it on X, before I posted it, I checked that it worked.

      Fuck.

          As best I can tell they are different videos, from different cameras, or at least cut to different lengths, different annotation, etc.

          Or… well… they ‘were’ different videos?

          Man, getting memory-holed in real time is really fucking something.

          EDIT:

          Yeah, yep, in the vxinstagram video, you can see the camera (wo)man who took the video that I watched, the X url video.

          At around the one minute mark in the vxinstagram url vudeo, she can be seen on the right, with a phone, dressed in a gray jacket, tan… I’m unsure of the correct name for the headwrap.

          Different smartphone videos, from different people.

          EDIT 2:

          The… the X video has had a … signficantly clearer video and audio of the moment the Marine’s forearm snaps.

          The onlookers were generally all further away than that camera was, and … they were close to being accurate, saying it was his hand.

          They likely heard the snap, but probably didn’t clearly see the uh, forearm deform, along with that snap.

        All sane americans need to do something soon.

        There is zero signs they will do anything effective. They will look on while their democracy is taken away, and USA devolves into a 1 party authoritarian dictatorship.

        There are good Americans, but apparently they are unable to act.
