That's as unpleasant and uncalled-for as racist terms for blacks used by whites. DavidDvorkin Feb 2023 #1

Who had access to the Google document? Why would this person turn to a group that is known to produce COVID disinformation, has right-wing extremists, and the like? I'm sorry, something smells very fishy with this story. I find this really hard for me to believe.

Heard was not a member of the BSU. So how did they get access to that Google document? Something doesn't add up. Also, I am pretty sure that they wouldn't just give that to anybody not part of that group. There is a lot of missing information, and I looked at other articles, and I didn't see much difference. So I have to be really skeptical about this story.
