    He’s getting exactly what he wanted by having an article written about it and having it shared across social media. But wow, it feels so good that he got mocked in the process…

      Right? Instead of publicizing his bullshit, we should be ignoring him whilst simultaneously hoping he runs into the wrong end of a lawnmower.

            I hate to break it to you but Kyle Rittenhouse is Kim Jong Un’s illegitimate son. It’s true, it says so right in this comment.

              And if you need further proof, here’s a link that says the same thing as confirmation: link

        In no way do I condone his actions, so let’s start with that. Coulda, shoulda, whatever, is not what his trial was about.

        Given the video evidence presented, he shot in self-defense. Given Washington state’s law regarding self-defense, he shot in self-defense. Not going to replay it all, you can see for yourself.

        All in all, it was a clusterfuck of biblical proportions. “Should have never happened.”, isn’t a legal doctrine. “He went looking for trouble and found it.”, isn’t a thing.

        As to why we’re still talking about this little maggot? Fuck if I know. I’d be the first to punch him in his fat face. I would happily spend the weekend in jail and lose on a battery charge.

    Better amplify him by writing and article about him and linking to his Twitter.

    Wouldn’t want to just ignore him and let him fade into obscurity.

        Because supporting him pisses of leftists. If everyone just ignored this dweeb instead of engaging with every stupid thing he does they’d stop giving him attention.

    I’m of the opinion that this community is being ruined by you posting too many things that aren’t news.

      Just filter the unwanted user out of the posts you see. The app I use for Lemmy includes this feature. I use it to clean up my feed from gallowboob-type ubiquitous posters, as well as any headline that includes the words “slam,” “slams,” or “slammed.” I can also eliminate any headline ending in a question mark, as the answer is an automatic “no,” so the question is not worthy of my attention.

      I’m not generally a critic of what you post, but this time I would have to say that you are, in fact, giving him unnecessary attention. He’s a dumbass kid who is no longer useful to the GOP.

        Wait, I thought they (GOP fascists) were making him their next protégé? (Legit question)

        Or have they already dumped this little turd?

          I don’t see a lot of them backing up the stupid shit he’s been saying. It seems like they’ve left him twisting in the wind.

            They’re only interested in giving him enough rope to be strangled by so they can make him a martyr again

        I just love hearing about the stupid stuff conservatives do though lol

        I also do think there’s an argument where you shouldn’t ignore people who might become dangerous later in life.

            Agreed. This story is essentially “Guy who was relevant years ago says ‘Ur Gay’ to someone on Internet”. Which while disagreeable isn’t something I’d expect people rushing to the presses about.

      It’s pride month. The Advocate thought it was newsworthy. Ignoring homophobia won’t make it go away.
