The Narrative is currently like thisI am not a medical professional, but I'm pretty sure people don't breathe through their spines, so I fail to see how pressure on the back of the neck would block breathing, unless there was an object beneath the neck that the throat's being pressed against.
Actual NPCs: His airway was being crushed!
Low IQ people who actually watched the original video rather than just parroting what they're told: His carotid/jugular was being crushed!
People who are stupid but nonetheless understand the difference between your back and your neck: Lying prone was (somehow) making him unable to breathe!
Loyal practitioners of doublethink: The cops being mean to him caused him to have a panic attack and die!
Fence sitters: I don't know what happened but I'm pretty sure it was the cops' fault, please don't rape my children
What someone believes is a function of their intelligence and how brainwashed they are, with the least intelligent/most brainwashed still holding onto the crushed airway theory. All opinions are held as true by the media depending on which audience they're talking to. Places that cater to the most useless scum of society like Vox, Vice, Twitter, etc. are still riding high on long-debunked talking points. They know they're lying, but it doesn't matter. The point isn't to be truthful, the point is to whip as many people into a violent frenzy as possible, and to do that you just need to know what level of dishonesty you can get away with.
The way he was being strangled had to do with blocking the blood flow to the brain.
Then why was he yelling "I can't breathe" before the cops even had him on the ground? Are we assuming that his lie came true by coincidence? Or could it be the much more reasonable theory that he was having trouble breathing long before the cops touched him because of something else? Say, a fuckload of drugs inside an already barely-functional body?
