Isn't this the kid that fired into a crowd? Why are we listening to anything he says again?

Why report, what a crying murderer thinks?

caucasity

I learned a new word today.

Though I am mystified that the author wrote an entire article describing Rittenhouse's caucasity without using the term white supremacist once. You don't get caucasity without white supremacism.

That’s not really true unless it has evolved since it first appeared. It used to just mean saying/doing something from the place of ignorance or privilege of being white or even just some weird shit like what midwesterners get up to when they dream up new “casseroles.” It was a fun word for use on reaction social media and memes. I hope it hasn’t come to describing white supremacy, an unfortunate trend for too many things these days.

And what did you think that was rooted in?

Being ignorant of some issue a non-white person might have doesn't make you a white supremacist.

[–] masquenox@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

doesn’t make you a white supremacist.

The fact that you feel personally attacked as soon as somebody used the term white supremacism says... what? You can take a shot at answering that... or I could answer it for you if it makes it easier. I assure you it will be perfectly painless.

Being ignorant of some issue a non-white person might

And what kind of people has been enforcing this ignorance all this time? Maybe the same kind of people you'll find in Rittenhouse's YT rec-list?

[–] Nelots@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

I didn't feel attacked though, at least not until right now where you're clearly accusing me of being a white supremacist?? Where do you get off doing that to somebody you've never even spoken to before?

When I say something stupid and have it pointed out to me that it's coming from a perspective of privilege, I realize my fault and try to do better. Believe it or not, nobody is perfect, and me not knowing literally every way I might have it better than somebody else doesn't suddenly make me believe white people are the superior race.

You can take a shot at answering that... or I could answer it for you if it makes it easier.

But thanks for the offer, you self righteous asshole. Fuck off.

this guy is such a pussy it's unbelievable

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago

He's echoing sentiments white nationalists have espoused for centuries.

Pretty sure Christopher Columbus is on record telling a native to "Love it or Leave it"

STOP. GIVING. HIM. ATTENTION.

A murderer that got away with it

Not Daniel Perry, though. The other one.

I'll just drop this here:

Kyle Rittenhouse’s Former Handler Reveals That He’s a Middle School Dropout Who Is ‘Angry With the World’

This dude isn't just your run of the mill conservative idiot, he's exceptionally stupid.

[–] JerkyChew@lemmy.one -1 points 2 years ago

I believe he scored so low on the USMC entrance exam that he's never allowed to pay again. Apparently it's not easy to score so low

Let's not give this absolute nobody media space please...

This is the most click bait article I accidentally clicked on. I need to factory reset my phone after coming in contact with that website.
