I can only assume the headline and PM quote were meant to be ironic. The juxtaposition of a headline saying the protesters acted in an extremely violent way plastered over a video showing a violent police officer knocking an elderly, non-violent protester out is the perfect joke to highlight how ridiculous the government truly is.
Either that, or they’re actually trying to be serious. Mainstream media expressly exists to tow an approved narrative regardless of the facts on the ground, and you’re just meant to soak it up until you believe it. Reality be damned. Don’t believe your lying eyes.
