(If you are out of the loop, that's okay! Kyle Rittenhouse is a chud kid who is on trial for murdering two protesters and injuring another in Kenosha, Wisconsin in the aftermath of protests over a police shooting that paralyzed Jacob Blake, a black man. There is a lot of news about the case circling around right now because the trial is ongoing.)

BIG CW for racism, violence, and other chud things
This kid has way more charisma than Zimmerman. And Zimmerman didn't have this kind of cult following. I think we're going to see a lot of Rittenhouse in the coming years.
This basically legalizes right wing vigilantism
It doesn't just legalize it: it rewards it.
Imagine if the Bernard Goetz case had ended like this, with videos and an acquittal. Truly a nightmare.
