OCEANIA HAS NEVER BEEN AT WAR WITH MINNEAPOLIS: George Floyd riots rewritten as “2020 fires.”

“The 2020 fires.”

I wonder how long it took them to come up with that. After all, describing the multiple-day terrorization of a city by mobs, the burning down, vandalization, and utter destruction of local businesses. The violence and terror.

It’s hard to find a nice way to describe a building being gutted by fire without SOME reference to the events which, literally, sparked it.

But they did. They found a way.

It was “the 2020 fires.” As if Mrs. O’Leary’s cow just happened to bump over a kerosene lamp and “poof,” up went Minneapolis.

Clever.

It’s a fiery but mostly peaceful memory holing.
