A thing that annoys me about Jonestown is that people pretend that 900 peope willingly drank poisoned kool-aid/flavor-aid and thus it was all suicide.

"Drink the kool-aid heh heh!"

Um, no?

More than half of the deaths at Jonestown were murder.

To be specifiic, murder by gunshot and being injected with poison in the back.

Those who were Injected in areas they could have injected themselves in were labled "suicide", and even then, more than half the deaths were murder.

Children who died from poison were labeled as murdered for obvious reasons.

Ah, but according to survivors, people were being forced to drink the kool-aid at gunpoint!

So even the "suicides" were most likely majority murder.

Why does this bother me, then?

Why does it bother me that people pretend that 900 people willing suicided via poisoned sweet drink?

Well, other than it being very incorrect.....

It REEKS of cover up!

The truth is, numerous famous people and media outlets PRAISED Jim Jones prior to the massacre.

Even the Carters and the Reagans sang praise for Jim Jones!

The media pushed the idea that they were all suicidal so that it seems like a tragic accident caused by delusions.

The famous people and media want to pretend it was suicide so that they don't have to adress the fact that they praised someone who became a mass murdering dictator!

And the peasants fell for the cover up, because to this day, people push and believe the "mass suicide" story.

"Muh kool-aid hurr durr."

Ugh!

Anyway, what do y'all think?
