Are you shocked that a conservative site used a photo from 2015 to falsely claim that Black Lives Matter blocked Hurricane Harvey rescue efforts?

Listen, when you have to lie time after time to make your political point, perhaps it's because your politics suck.

@eli1601 It does not actually lean far left. But more importantly, they link to the cached version of the original.

@QuixoticSoul Calling it a conservative site is a stretch. In other words, fake news.

@eli1601 Our land of the free? They're definitely a conservative site. But they have "this is satire" disclaimers. The more interesting part is where this spreads around and other blogs, sites, and people present it as genuine news.

Which is, of course, the point - and part of how the fake news machine operates.
