I thought this is basically true? Like I don't know if it was because some woman wasn't "photogenic enough" but basically yeah she was a civil rights activist, the arrest was intentional and the incident was planned, is that not true?
So many silent white liberals came out of the woodwork for Elijah McClain for this sad reason. Of course everyone should have and it’s a particularly egregious case, but championing “he played the violin for shelter animals!!” as a reason for him being more deserving of safety is the kind of means testing you get from people who tailor their life experiences for college essay content.
Also something additional to keep in mind with Rittenhouse is that there was video of him assaulting some random teenage girl before he went on his shooting spree. Of course his past was never held against him.

notice the context in which this was posted.
I know, I thought your post was to point out a wild take on the civil rights movement
It is. A redditor is equating rittenhouse and the civil rights movement, and the first response is to criticise the civil rights movement.
