Kyle Rittenhouse Trial

[Irreligious Atheist]

So you're reprimanding me for not being able to read your mind about what you thought about the Rittenhouse situation? I was the only person who stood up for Kyle at first. Props to Online Biker for doing the same a short time later as well. I don't know what your opinion was, and obviously I can't know if you don't post it. All I remember was I was the only person saying Kyle did nothing wrong legally, and I was called a Nazi for it. The facts be damned. Like I just said, it's about team sports. Kyle was seen as anti-BLM, so none of the facts actually mattered. Period. That's how this forum operates. It wasn't like this ten years ago. It wasn't like this during the George Zimmerman trial. At least half of the atheist posters supported Zimmerman being let off back then on the atheist forum I was on. Nowadays, I'd probably be the only one defending Zimmerman. Times have changed, my friend. It's all about team sports now. Step out of line even a bit, and you're declared a nazi. That's why people won't speak up anymore like I do. They're scared. Self censorship was your goal, and you won.

No, I'm reprimanding you for claiming something that was false as well as being stupid enough to conclude that you were the only one based on you being the only one who opined in favor of Rittenhouse.  That's shitty thinking.  And that we're here, still debating whether or not it's shitty thinking, simply goes further to solidify your reputation as an illogical nutball with shit for brains.  If you had claimed that you were the only person who opined in favor of Rittenhouse's acquittal, that would have been a different statement, and I still would have had legitimate complaints.  Concluding anything based upon who chose to participate in a thread does nothing to support your belief that you were some special flower because you have no way of knowing if those who expressed their opinions were a good representation of all of us here or not.  The squeaky wheel gets the grease.  If you only count squeaky wheels, you're gonna end up underestimating the number of wheels.   So that's another thinking error.  Honestly, fallacies and cognitive biases run in and out of your thinking like trains at Grand Central Station.  As to whether things have changed, I know that I have gotten more willing to give voice to unpopular opinions over the years, so your paranoid scenario doesn't ring true with me.  Generalizations are built on evidence.  Given that you appear to be a nutter with shitty thinking skills, I'm not willing to accept a generalization which appears based on nothing more than stories and talking points about the intimidation of the woke mob.  Lacking any actual evidence, I suspect this is just you projecting your fantasies onto reality yet again.

lol wut? Seriously?

Ok. I will rephrase what I posted before. I was the only one to put in writing my support of Rittenhouse and him acting in self defense, and I was correct, and I was called a nazi for it. Better?
