Let’s Try a Thought Experiment

Imagine a Kwanzaa parade going on.

A man in an SUV drives through the parade, killing several, injuring dozens.

Moreover, the man has the following characteristics:

  • He’s white
  • He’s a Trump supporter
  • He’s anti-BLM and vocal about it
  • He’s associated with white supremacists

How do you think the media would treat such an event?

They would be literally foaming at the mouth. We’d have non-stop coverage of this. It wouldn’t go away for weeks. It’d be front page news every day. It’d be practically the only thing talked about on cable news.

Now, let’s return to reality.

Xmas fair killer rapped about hating Trump, supported BLM, antisemitic: will be memory-holed soon | Spin, strangeness, and charm (wordpress.com)

So one Darrell E. Brooks apparently drove his SUV into a Waukesha, WI Christmas fair crowd,killing five and wounding many others.

The MSM agitprop “journalists” would have had a field day if he were a “white supremacist” or merely a Trump supporter. Alas for them:

  • He’s actually black
  • Rapped under the moniker “Mathboi Fly” with Trump-bashing lyrics
  • Vocal BLM supporter
  • Parroted black supremacist claptrap, including the idea that white Jews are imposters and black people are the real Jews (which he attributes with approval to none other than Adolf H. [y”sh])

But this story has already practically disappeared, and has been minimized from the very beginning.

Media bias 101. If it doesn’t support the narrative, or can’t be twisted to support the narrative, it must be dismissed.

Let’s Be Clear: This Is an Idiotic Meme

A meme sums up 90% of the left's Kyle Rittenhouse lies - Bookworm Room

Quoting liberally:

1. The implication that Kyle committed a crime by crossing state lines. In America, we citizens can freely cross state lines. There is no penalty in America for doing so. It’s part of our constitutional system. When I left California for the Southeast, I did not have to report myself to the local police station. And of course, the whole “crossed state lines” mantra is ludicrous coming from the party that disavows national borders.

2. The “illegally” acquired gun. The reason the judge dropped the gun charge against Rittenhouse is that the rifle was neither illegally-acquired nor was Rittenhouse underage. The rules are different for long guns, and the measuring tape established that, when Rittenhouse entered Wisconsin (a mere 20 minutes from his home), and his friend loaned him the rifle, neither broke the law.

3. The “assault rife.” There is no such thing as an “assault rifle.” The “AR” in the name comes from the 15th model that Armalite Rifle manufactured in the 1950s. It’s now the industry standard.

4. “Attended a MAGA rally.” Nothing that happened in Kenosha was comparable to a MAGA rally. No MAGA rally has ever involved burning a whole city down. People are cheerful, behave well, and clean up after themselves.

5. “Picked a fight.” Kyle did not “pick a fight.” The undisputed evidence at the trial, from the prosecution’s own witnesses and video footage, showed that Rittenhouse offered first aid, shied away from any conflict, ran as fast as he could away from Rosenbaum’s intended assault, and was also trying desperately to run away from Huber’s and Grosskreutz’s assaults.

6. Racism! And of course, the implication that this is about race is wrong, too. Not only is Kyle White, so are/were the people he shot.

Read the whole thing.

How Can You Be Upset About Something When You Have the Basic Facts So Completely Wrong?

JMU follows the lead of The Independent.

Since Deleted JMU Instagram Video: Rittenhouse Charged with 'Taking Away Two Beautiful Black Lives' (townhall.com)

Remember:

  • They weren’t black
  • They were hardly beautiful. One was a child rapist and one was a serial kidnapper and abuser of women

And this was on JMU’s official Instagram account.

You can’t even argue with these people. They’re so caught up in the narrative and it is so enshrined upon their beliefs, that they truly believe that the facts support the narrative, even when they don’t.

Liberal delusions.

 

 

They’re So Wrapped up in the Narrative, They Can’t Even Remember the Facts

It is completely embarrassing for the Chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) to get this wrong.

Maloney issued a statement yesterday afternoon in which he said that it is “disgusting and disturbing that someone was able to carry a loaded assault rifle into a protest against the unjust killing of Jacob Blake, an unarmed Black man, and take the lives of two people and injure another – and face absolutely no consequences.”

Two problems:

  1. Jacob Blake was not unarmed
  2. There was no “unjust killing”, because Jacob Blake, is, in fact, not dead.

You pushed this narrative. You encouraged the riots. And you don’t even have your basic facts straight. A riot to protest the “unjust killing” of someone who is alive.

And yet, Twitter and Facebook are all over it, every time someone on the right misspells a word.

The narrative trumps everything. This has gone on long enough. We have to start making the left pay for their lies.
