Sounds like one of those things they can defend as “technically the truth” which will slowly have the context around it eroded until it looks entirely positive.

Yeah all the bullshit they’ve been up to is just trying to slowly chip away at the truth on this subject. Death by 1000 cuts and all that. It’s why they’re so batshit crazy about “CRT”.
