The way the Left-wing/mainstream media covered the Rittenhouse case was absolutely about politics and not facts. That even people who have been voting blue for their whole lives are seeing that now speaks VOLUMES.
We kinda sorta totally love this thread from Colin Wright:
The Left-wing media narrative on the Rittenhouse case is extreme, malicious, and untethered to reality. It is well beyond insane. It would be laughable if it weren't so utterly frightening.

And it is utterly frightening. Add to the mix the number of people buying into their reporting? Bad stuff.
I've been pretty red-pilled on things lately, but this trial is revealing just how extreme and dangerous the Left-wing media's race-baiting ideology is, and how far they're willing to bend reality to fit a narrative even when their claims are provably absurd on their face.

But race-baiting is what our friends on the Left do best.
Absolutely spot on here. Rittenhouse shouldn’t have even gone to trial but the media wanted their story, they wanted their ‘evil right-wing white-supremacist kills people’ story and they weren’t about to let any facts or reality get in the way.
Yup.
I've voted blue my whole life, including last election (Tulsi Gabbard), but there is simply no way I can bring myself to continue that trend after what I've been witnessing. The Right is far from my ideal, but if voting R is the best way to combat this sickness, then so be it.

I don't have allegiance to any party. I'll happily vote blue again in the future should they manage to root out this particular malignant ideological tumor.
But until they do, or until the Right somehow manages to exceed the Left's current psychosis, I am voting Republican.

Welcome!
Not to mention our cookies are far better. Just sayin’.

Love this!
I am looking at social media posts from friends with whom I’ve been discussing these issues for a year that indicate they’ve not only made no progress but may have regressed substantially. I’m no longer frightened by it, just listless and demoralized.

I should be surprised anymore, but this has been truly shocking for me to witness.
— Colin Wright (@SwipeWright) November 20, 2021
Sadly, when you cover the crazy every day as we do here at Twitchy, none of it is truly shocking anymore.
What would be truly shocking is if it suddenly stopped.
But we’re not holding our breath on that one.
