      Hate to break it to you, but it’s actually illegal to kill people and he got away with doing it twice. I’m not happy about it, but he’s not going to be touched for this comment, I promise you.

      He should be serving consecutive live sentences, but instead he was given a platform to speak on and became a poster child for conservative values.

      The American “justice” system is a joke and a farce.

        I mean, he makes the rounds in the right wing grift-o-sphere somewhat regularly, has huge name recognition, and likely a very positive q score among maga types.

        He probably doesn’t need any leftist outrage to win a primary in the right district.

          Is a positive q score how likely they are to believe in delusional conspiracy theories that are obvious rebrands of Nazi propaganda? Or am I thinking of a different q?

    The public should not care what Kyle Rittenhouse thinks and we should not amplify a stupid thing he said.

    But setting aside the fact that a descendant of colonizers has the caucasity to tell the descendants of the colonized that they should “leave” the land they rightfully pointed out was stolen from them…

    Oh, that’s good.

        Nope. Hating the bigotry of people who have skin color or another trait in common with yourself does not equal hating yourself. Caucasity is not a trait inherent to all white people.

        Contrary to the fantasies of bigots, white people are not one big team united against everyone else.

          It’s not really a word. Also it clearly implies something is inherent to “Caucasians” - I can’t be bothered to do any clever wordplay on the other supposed racial categories, but I suspect any equivalent puns might be considered a little problematic, what what?

            It’s not really a word

            Since it’s used to convey meaning using letters and people understand that meaning, it by any definition that matters IS a word.

            Also it clearly implies something is inherent to “Caucasians”

            No. “Particularly Caucasians” ≠ “all Caucasians”.

            I can’t be bothered to do any clever wordplay on the other supposed racial categories

            Good, because that would likely be punching down, unlike pointing out how audacious some white people are with their privilege.

            but I suspect any equivalent puns might be considered a little problematic, what what?

            No, they wouldn’t be equivalent. Pointing out white privilege and criticizing those that wield it as both a sword and a shield is not the same as making fun of less privileged people or even white people who are aware of and don’t exploit their privilege.

    Infamous stupid hick says hateful, willfully ignorant rage bait. Middle school was too much for this fucking mental invalid. He may never see prison for what he’s done, but he’s trapped in that idiot mind and will never know greater awareness, just like he deserves.

        No, my thoughts come from a person who has no power to deliver proper punishment. From what I’ve read, it seems he’s viewed as a petulant, perpetually angry prick. People like that are never happy, even when they get what they want, they just look for something else to hate. He’s too uneducated and self centered to ever have proper introspection and growth. He’s fucking stuck like that. Barring actual justice, at least he’s trapped in that small mind.

          Mine too comes from a place and person who does not have the power to deliver proper punishment, as an individual. Collectively, we do have a voice. We just have to use it correctly. Not just for this, for all things we view as evil. By speaking as one.

              Specific? Not much. We’re too late on this one. What we can do is stop bickering and slap fighting in a corner and come together to help ensure people like this are held accountable more often. It’s a road we need to walk, not a single instance or single situation that will help solve the larger systemic issues.

      That murdering piece of shit should be in prison or dead.

      The “justice” system only encourages vigilantism by its failure.
