This Rittenhouse case, if he's convicted, dismantles much of the GOP propaganda Op on the run-up/1-6

Remember with this Rittenhouse case, if he's convicted, it dismantles much of the GOP propaganda Op on the run-up to January 6. They ordered DHS (!) to *support* that murderer, excuse his actions.

Expect f**kery. His conviction brings the inevitable just that much quicker.

"Once the GOP knew Biden was running, they had to prepare for a violent coup. "The Boogaloo," some traitors called it.

All the imagery and propaganda was leading to the attempted murder of Congress. That's what Rittenhouse was key to. Preparing people for violent overthrow.

Flynn. Jones. Stone. Bannon. Shapiro. Carlson. Every propagandist was conditioning Americans to accept a violent end to democracy after 2020, trying to justify it.

Rittenhouse was key to it. Whatever happens in this trial, every seditious traitor must face the law."

1. He ain't getting convicted. The judge is making sure of it.

Basically he’s scared of the Rittenhouse supporters.

7. All signs agree, he won't be convicted. And this is the reason why.

It sets the precedent to dismantle the built-up propaganda op created by Trump.

Goebbels couldn't have left better instructions.
~Joseph Goebbels was a National Socialist politician and propagandist.
His famous words, " The masses need something that will give them a thrill of horror.
Think of the press as a great keyboard on which the government can play, the rank and file are usually much more primitive than we imagine.
Propaganda must therefore always be essentially simple and repetitious.
"We shall reach our goal, when we have the power to laugh as we destroy, as we smash, whatever was sacred to us as tradition, as education, and as human affection."

3. They entrusted the operational aspect of their scheme to an amateur underage wannabe?

That doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

8. It wasn't just Rittenhouse but the entire slow-mo rise of every one like him.

Since Trump took office.

Think of it as conditioning Americans to 'believe' this kind of violence is normal. That its purpose is valid.

If Rittenhouse is convicted, that conditioning is suddenly paused, & the propaganda that supported it is questioned, & they all are expected to be convicted.

A conviction now sets precedent.

We do not want to play into any of their traps.
The question asked in Dr Strangelove was what good is a doomsday device if no one knows you have one?
Let them decide who they want to piss off; we can stay united until then. Then the fights on.

So how did that conversation go?

- 'Bad news, Biden is running'

-- 'We're done for'

- 'Not so fast. If the election doesn't go our way we can overthrow the government'

-- 'Yeah but the people won't accept that out of the blue.'

-We've been building the propaganda for years, all we need is someone to go into the street and start the violence. This is the most critical part, it cannot fail or everything is lost. Who can we send?'

-- 'Hmm... how about that teenage kid from Illinois? He seems the perfect choice for a no fail mission.'

- 'Brilliant Pinky, this time we will take over the world'

12. Certainly, if Kyle R was the one example. But he's just one of many since Trump opened the door....

..to such extremist violence.
It is about the conditioning or normalizing mixed with the propaganda saying they have a point for their violence, don'they?

A conviction sets precedent that actually NONE of them had a right nor a just reason.

He's the poster child for the legitimacy of nazism, white supremacy.

That DHS (!) was ordered to support him. Where he is called out by name -twice- as "key".

If he's the poster child they left a lot to chance.
