They were lying sure, in a CYA sort of move. Totally despicable cowardice.
My buddy Utah Phillips put it very well:
“The state can't give you free speech, and the state can't take it away. You're born with it, like your eyes, like your ears. Freedom is something you assume, then you wait for someone to try to take it away. The degree to which you resist is the degree to which you are free...”

This is a really important issue of great public interest and the total information blackout should be chilling as fuck to any citizen.
Keep sharing info. I love the Luigi valentines. Keep reminding people. This is an example of the memory hole in action.
