It’s easy to spot “independent” fact checkers complete partisanship if you just read enough of them. The one that solidified it for me was a “fact check” about the statement that one of the people shot by Kyle Rittenhouse was a sex offender

The fact check (I forget if it was politico or snopes, one of those), basically took multiple paragraphs to say “well yes, he was convicted of a past crime of sexual assault of a minor” in a really roundabout way and then a full paragraph talking about past good deeds the person had done and then another paragraph saying that he didn’t deserve to die for being a sex offender

That was complete obvious bias. 1.) the statement was never about his past good deeds, no one gives a shit. It was whether or not he was a convicted sex offender and 2.) the statement was never about whether he deserved to die for being a sex offender, only whether he was one or not

The bias for the dead liberal was so fucking obvious in the fact check I wouldn’t be surprised if the staff that wrote it would have offered him a handjob if he were still alive to try to see if they could swing his sexual interests away from children

Stan has entered the lexicon as a term for an overly-obsessed fan of someone or something and is used colloquially to express fandom of all kinds. The origin of the term stan is often credited to the 2000 song "Stan," about an obsessed fan, by American rapper Eminem.

I am not some fan of Rittenhouse. To my knowledge from hearing a little about his case, he had a couple people gearing up to beat the shit out of him or something. Apparently you would rather he lie down like a bitch crying and let it happen. I don’t fault him for defending himself. I personally wouldn’t tote an AK or whatever he had to do that, my glock would do just fine, but that I also don’t carry anywhere, ever really. Never even shot the damn thing. So Rittenhouse and I are not that alike, other than the fact I will also go down fighting

I’m assuming the issue people have with the situation is that he was engaging in vigilantism. Same sort of situation as Zimmerman, I suppose. There was also a case I heard about, although I don’t recall the name, of a man who would take walks late at night with his dog, armed, through the worst parts of town. He saw some young adults tagging a wall with spray paint, called them out and told them to stop. They tried to jump him, so he shot one. Was acquitted in self defense. So he kept taking his walks. Ended up shooting I think 2 other delinquents who attacked him, got off on self defense again. But now the judge could tell, this was someone engaging in vigilantism, acting like a cop when he was not a cop. He was tried for it and convicted if I recall. So it is a real crime. Maybe that will happen to Rittenhouse too

One thing I don’t deny is that fact that carrying a gun emboldens people to put themselves in dangerous situations. The famous quote is, “when you are carrying a hammer, everything looks like a nail”
