A lie, as the saying goes, gets halfway around the world before the truth gets its boots on. Even then, it’s too late: many, if not most, who chose to believe the lie without question will adamantly refuse to accept the truth. The damage has been done.

Often quite literally.

When the American media deliberately doctored George Zimmerman’s 911 call to frame him as a “racist”, and deliberately refrained from publishing photos of Zimmerman bloody from the beating inflicted by a hulking Trayvon Martin before Zimmerman shot in self-defence, it contributed to the firestorm of confected racial grievance that ultimately saw cities across America burn in the most destructive riots in the nation’s history.

Similarly, when Canadian media hysterically shrieked the extraordinary claim of “mass graves” at former residential schools, it set off a wave of anti-church violence. Screeching “cultural genocide”, left-wing mobs burned churches and tore down statues.

There’s only one problem.

There are no mass graves. Not a single one. The entire violent cultural revolution was lit by a blatant lie.

Even today, after extensive excavations have failed to find a single mass grave, the left refuses to let go of the lie.

The fact that no human remains have yet been uncovered from the sites has cast doubt on the idea that there were, in fact, mass graves. Nonetheless, more excavations have been called for to prove definitively whether the horrific allegations are true, according to the New York Post.

The complete lack of human remains should pretty much end once and for all the lurid claims of “mass graves”. But zealous, self-righteous activists are nothing if not immune to a lack of evidence.

The failure to find even one mass grave is only proof that they need to keep looking.

In May 2021, leaders of the Tk’emlups te Secwepemc First Nation reported over 200 gravesites at a former residential school near Kamloops, British Columbia.

It was a lie.

The discovery of underground anomalies was made via ground-penetrating radar, as well as “oral history and folklore.” No hard evidence has been released to back up the claims, nor has a dig taken place to uncover the alleged human remains.

Because they know they won’t find anything.

On August 19, Chief Derek Nepinak of the Minegoziibe Anishinabe First Nation revealed that “no conclusive evidence of human remains” had been found under Our Lady of Seven Sorrows Catholic Church, which is the site of a former residential school in Pine Creek, Manitoba.

So, will they admit that it’s all just a load of old moose shit?

Of course not.

Nepinak added, however, that the discovery “should take nothing away from the difficult truths experienced by our families who attended the residential school.”

Any heretic who dares point out the obvious — that there are no mass graves — is immediately sent to the pyre.

Those who question the mass graves narrative have often faced ostracization from their academic or political communities. In May, for example, former Manitoba attorney general James McCrae resigned from his position on a government panel after his claims that “verifiable evidence” of the claim “has been scarce, or non-existent” sparked anger.

Remember, this is all from the same establishment piously lecturing you about “dangerous misinformation”.
