Community Notes destroyed this FBI post on MLKJ Day

This might be the single best MLKJ Day post I've ever seen in my life.

Wait for it...

FBI @FBI · Follow

This #MLKDay, the #FBI honors one of the most prominent leaders of the Civil Rights movement and reaffirms its commitment to Dr. King’s legacy of fairness and equal justice for all.

Readers added context The FBI engaged in surveillance of King, attempted to discredit him, and used manipulation tactics to influence him to stop organizing. King’s family believe the FBI was responsible for his death.

Bro, the FBI thought they could get away with a fluffy little Martin Luther King Day post without suffering the consequences.

NOT TODAY! In case you didn't know this:

The FBI campaign against King began with wiretaps, but quickly ballooned. When wiretaps revealed that King was having extramarital affairs, the FBI shifted their focus to uncover all evidence of his infidelity by bugging and taping him in his hotel rooms and by paying informants to spy on him. Eventually, the FBI penned and sent King an anonymous letter, along with some of their tapes, suggesting that he should kill himself.

Man, I'd hate to be the FBI employee who put this tweet out.

Like, how do you not know?!?

Did Community Notes point out it was the Democrat party who controlled the executive branch when the surveillance was happening?

We may have witnessed the final MLK holiday. Anyone who has been to college recently, or anyone who had to suffer through corporate DEI training knows that you must now judge people by the color of their skin and nothing else.

MLK will soon be erased from the history books and labeled a racial heretic.

Every MLK Day is also cognitive dissonance day.

Same with Thomas Jefferson.

Are you saying it was cool for the FIB to wiretap him?

I’m saying people have cognitive dissonance on the humanity of great men.

Yeah, yeah, yeah…MLKjr was a womanizer. He plagiarized. And that is truly reprehensible.

Jefferson owned slaves and impregnated one of them. Also reprehensible.

Some people get all triggered when leftists trash Jefferson. The triggered people point out how fundamental to America was this flawed man. True dat.

But those same triggered folks, asking us consider the context of slave-ownership, pig-pile on MLKjr’s sins. Sure, he didn’t found America. But he generally worked toward - and succeeded in - making this nation greater…which is more than can be said for the cognitively-dissonant.
