Kyle Rittenhouse is heckled off stage with his service dog by BLM protesters during University of Memphis speech

[Sympthsical]

27. They expected what happened

Toilet Paper USA counted on the vigorous protest that occurred. They can now hold it up as, "See? Free speech is being shut down by the radical Left on campus!" It's suits their narrative, and they picked precisely the kind of person who would generate it. Find someone to be anti-BLM who would be so offensive, the protest pretty much organizes itself.

What would have better served would have been ignoring Rittenhouse entirely. Who was going to show up to this thing otherwise? Two dozen or so students at best? Now they've got controversy, press, and a narrative. Rittenhouse gets the publicity.

It's a mutually beneficial arrangement. The Right gets to play persecuted, and the Left can say, "Ha, we shut him down!"

Everyone wins.

Or no one wins. I can't decide, honestly.
