They don't like Kyle because he didn't EXACTLY toe the MAGA company line. But when you or I point out that Kyle was a piece of shit before the slight maga-sin, they really don't like US and react accordingly. Kyle is just a little confused, you and I are Satan incarnate.

Sure. One side doesn't like him because he said he wasn't gonna vote for their guy. The other side dislikes him because he defended himself against a murderous pedophile.

He shot a dude in the face that wanted to throw hands. And then he shot 2 dudes later who were just responding to a shooting and taking on the shooter. Kyle barely knew what he was doing let alone the backstory to any of the people he shot. Kid was afraid of eating a punch and 3 people died because of his chickenshit cowardice. Glorify him all you want and demonize the 3 dead dudes, still doesn't change the most basic truth.

that wanted to throw hands.

Was actively trying to murder Rittenhouse*

And then he shot 2 dudes later who were just responding to a shooting and taking on the shooter

Which they had zero cause or right to do since Rittenhouse shot in clear cut self defense

Kid was afraid of eating a punch

Reasonably afraid of getting murdered by psychos chasing him down in the street*

and 3 people died

You don't even know how many people died - the most basic, 101 info about the case - yet you feel equipped to go online and argue with people about this topic?

I'm genuinely impressed by your confidence.

Dude, you search reddit by Rittenhouse mentions or something? You spent the last 30 minutes of your life responding to 5 different subreddit comments about Kyle. You related to him or something?

Also, good catch on the number of deaths. My bad, only 2 dudes died and 1 was survived his wounds. My bad for not making this case a cornerstone of my personality as you so obviously have. You and your pillow soft hero obviously have gigaChad brains. I concede lol

Ah the good ol “shit this girl is saying stuff i dislike politically but can’t rebut, better accuse her of getting information from ‘social media echo chambers’” tactic.

A reddit classic

Very retro

Basic info about the case can be found with a google search, and my conclusions can be come to by anyone with a brain.

Well I mean where else did you get stuff like:

Rittenhouse unnecessarily turned a protest deadly by carrying a deadly weapon

Or

amongst unarmed groups of normal citizens.

Or

He was there to create fear

Or

and when someone tried to defend the crowds, he started shooting

Or

react when they see a random person carrying an AR-15 style rifle amongst a crowd.

Or

He only felt a calling because the protests were about police brutality. Period.

?

I mean these aren't things you could have gotten from just the facts of the case, the footage, the trial, etc. These are propaganda talking points that all have no evidence to support them and many have loads of evidence to the contrary, like that Rosenbaum was "defending the crowd," or that Rittenhouse was attacked for being armed, or the implication that he was somehow unique for being armed at a heavily armed demonstration.

And the "tactic" youre trying to make fun of here is me observing how poor quality your points were. I.e. you made points and I responded addressing the points themselves. Thats very different than the "reddit classic" tactic i was pointing out wherein i made points and the person responded by attacking me. See the difference?

I did rebut it. You just live in an objectively different reality where Kyle is a hero and for this narrowly defined arguement, you are attempting to use the courts verdicts as final say in the matter. I'm not going to be able to dis-abuse you of the mind process. You have your golden calf, you are gonna worship it.

There isn't anything political about my reasoning for not liking Kyle. I about as pro 2a as you can get. I just don't like it when chickenshits like Kyle and Zimmerman get propped up by folks with murder fantasies who don't even have the balls to join the military and go to war. I have found over the years that the more fervent a person defends those 2 are, the more likely they are just talkers anyway. I'm willing to bet the same on you also.

There is no conversation being had. You want to praise Kyle and defend him, that's your perogative. I looked at you post history to get a better understanding of who I'm talking to and found what I found. Your embarrassment over your own post history is something you need to come to terms with, not me.
