I am thinking they'd have banned the poster based on the fact that it wasn't proven that anyone was coming since nobody had come yet.

I might have mentioned this elsewhere but here i go again. The youtube channel "The Hill" produced a a show called "The Rising". The hosts were trying to bypass mainstream media and call out what are the facts behind the story. They were recently dropped. So they have gone independent. Here is what their show is now. ( showing this because of false and misleading memes like in the OP )

Good catch! There's a wonderful fable about the application of politics on perception and science. It goes something like this.

A Russian Jew named Jacob was finally allowed to emigrate to Israel. At the Moscow airport a customs inspector found a statue of Lenin in his luggage. "What is this?"​

​

Jacob replied, "Wrong question, comrade.” You should have asked “Who is this?”​

​

“This is Comrade Lenin. He laid the foundations of Socialism and created the future prosperity of the Russian people. I am taking it with me as a memory of our dear hero.”​

​

The Russian customs official sent him on his way.​

​

At Tel Aviv airport the Israeli customs official also asked, "What is this?"​

​

"Wrong question, sir. You should be asking “Who is this?” “This, my friend, is Lenin, the bastard who caused me, a Jew, to leave Russia. I take this statue as a reminder to curse him every day."​

​

The Israeli official sent him on his way.​

​

When Jacob settled in his new home, Jacob placed the statue on the mantle. The following evening he invited friends and relatives to dinner. Spotting the statue, one of his cousins asked, "Who is this?” Jacob replied, "Wrong question. You should have asked 'What is this?’​

​

“This is five kilograms of solid gold that I managed to bring home with me without having to pay any customs duty or tax."​

​

The Moral: Politics is when you can tell the same shit in different ways to fool different people, and still come out smelling like a rose.​

Then, there's someone real who didn't come out smelling like a rose

It's all about the packaging that makes a point sellable.

I think I missed the idea behind your post, nothing personal. I have some other ideas that might be closer to what you had in mind.
