This occurred to me while watching their bullshit press conference.
The press conference would look exactly the same if Karmelo's brother had been actually murdered by a racist white police officer.
I knew they were trying to paint themselves as the victims, but the extent to which they are trying this shit is still honestly mindboggling, and utterly enraging.
The mom crying. The "community advocate" or whatever - the psychotic child-beater - crying racism and bigotry. Also, keep Kyle Rittenhouse's name out of your fucking mouth, you retard. He's been through enough, the circumstances were different, and he actually spent time in jail despite being innocent. I know you have the IQ of a lemon, but these things are not the same, so just shut up.
I swear, this whole family is psychotic, and they further surrounded themselves with additional psychotics.
You. Are. Not. The Victims.
The kid your boy murdered, and his family...they're the victims.
If this fuckstain actually gets off (unlikely, but possible)...I don't even know.
You nailed it. Cargo cult PR.
It doesn't matter the circumstances. It doesn't matter which side of the incident your guy was on. You roll out the same actors, you put on the same performance, and the same people buy tickets.
They're acting like he's the victim because for decades, acting like the victim has worked. And the people watching can't tell the difference because they don't think. They only consume media and this has all the trappings of the last show.
