Central Hub Caught Distorting Visual Data-Packets for Tribal Advantage

The primary hive-mind of the North American landmass has engaged in a delightfully primitive form of light-pattern manipulation. A local dissent-leader, Nekima Levy Armstrong, recently performed the standard ritual of being physically restrained by the bipedal extraction force for organizing a gathering in a stone-walled spiritual chamber.

However, the Central Hub’s communications drones felt the actual reality was insufficiently dramatic for their propaganda streams. In a move that demonstrates the species’ peculiar relationship with objective truth, the Central Hub distributed a modified visual data-packet. This fictionalized image attempted to re-contextualize the dissent-leader's status, much to her vocal annoyance. She expressed a bio-chemical reaction termed disgust, a common response when humans realize their digital avatars are being puppeted by the ruling caste without permission.

It remains fascinating to watch these creatures squabble over which arrangement of pixels represents the correct version of their history. They seem unaware that, from a distance of three light-years, both the original and the edited data-packets are equally irrelevant. The ruling primates continue to spend their fictional resource credits on digital deception while their planetary atmosphere undergoes terminal degradation. It is the height of local entertainment.
