Because if you ignore most details, you can go, "SEE THERE WERE FEDS IN THE CROWD ANTIFA ENTRAPMENT ANTIFA ENTRAPMENT" and pretend that you're still a good person, and get even madder at "the left" and "the deep state". See how right wing media reports this? A bombshell that there were plainclothes agents in the crowd during the riot - all technically true statements. You just don't mention that they showed up *in response to the active mob violence", and let your fans soak up that it was definitely a setup, based on the carefully curated truths and weasel words you give them.
