     @burner @BowsacNoodle it was always legit. Even if the guy has some shadowy backer he's getting paid to do what he loves, as shown by him setting right back up with "Not Project Veritas (lol) Inc., LLC" after Project Veritas was taken over and he was kicked out.
     
     What's strange about it is that the videos never come to anything. PV was defanged by an early Breitbart video, of a speech before the NAACP
     >woman: yeah so a white guy came to me
     >woman: and I said, lmao fuck this honkey-ass motherfucker, I'm going to cheat him out of his benefits
     >NAACP: *raucous applause*
     >woman: but then I realized that was a racist thought so I helped him anyway.
     >NAACP: *muted, polite applause*
     Breitbart cut the video to show the first applause line only. Message: the NAACP just fucking hates white people. You can literally say "I'm going to screw white people" and get applauded by the NAACP.
     
     The reaction to the Breitbart video was entirely focused on the woman: she's evil, she should be fired, she's a racist. The NAACP? Who's that? Applause? I don't hear it. We're going to shove this single woman conveniently under the bus and OH WAIT- she also said the other thing. Breitbart *cut* that other thing and distorted our evaluations on who to throw under the bus. This is a deceptive video!!
     
     PV came after that with everyone primed to accept the laziest possible deboonkings of video. Guy on video says it's a Lair of Doom? Uh actually Dr. Evil says it's a theme park, bigot.
