The truth is...
No cameras were allowed in the #Pennsylvania State House when the Declaration of Independence was signed, so there are no pics or videos of the event.

-------
#truthbetold = A statement that is logically or literally true (or mostly true), but seems to imply something that isn't true or is just plain weird. (for rhetoric, logic or propaganda studies... or just for fun)
I do these #TruthBeTold toots to demonstrate how the phrasing of words can be literally true, but imply something that is not true. It’s important to understand how this works to help improve critical reasoning skills and to be able to spot statements that are misleading.
(I also sometimes just do them for fun )
@Pat That's a way to Patsplain. ;)
Did you learn anything from my Patsplaining, or did you already understand the original toot?
... and I'm doing these Patsplaining toots about them because nobody ever responds to the #TruthBeTold toots, so I assume people just don't understand them. (Maybe you folks do understand but just don't give a shit. But I'll keep explaining them anyway in case some folks don't understand.)
