At this point I have to believe it’s like “fake news.” He’s hoping he can say it enough without ever explaining it, knowing it’s wrong, that people will just start associating it.

It’s clearly working, look at Matata’s painfully sad comparison between replacing a statue with a plaque that provides context, with actually redacting history books.

People are just happy to be ignorant about this situation because they want to fuel their outrage. That’s why you’ll never get an explanation out of them.
