K. Rittenhouse Marks Thanksgiving Promoting Violent Vid Game Starring Himself "media ruined his life


Kyle Rittenhouse on Thursday — Thanksgiving — shared a video on Twitter promoting a video game in which a character based on himself shoots turkeys that symbolize the so-called “fake news” media.

Rittenhouse appears in the spot for “Kyle Rittenhouse’s Turkey Shoot” with the game’s developer, Mint Chip.

In the promo, Rittenhouse claims the media has ruined his life. He claimed self-defense and was found not guilty after he shot two unarmed racial justice protesters to death in Kenosha, Wisconsin, in 2020.

“When I saw how these fake news turkeys operated, I had to start coding immediately,” the developer says in the clip. “Gamers will get to play as Kyle Rittenhouse using a highly specialized laser gun to strike down any turkey that spreads lies, propaganda, or liberal bias.”

“We’re not clucking around,” the programmer concludes.

“Cluck yeah,” says Rittenhouse.

... this young man is so very "media shy." Poor baby... He does nothing to attract media attention... and yet it ruined his life? Interesting how most of the people who say the media ruins them can't stay away from the media. On a deeper level, Kyle is running away from something. He's "acting out" some childhood problem(s).

He has ridden double murder, and an infamous acquittal, to fame and fortune. He's going to hold the stage until someone drags him off.

no protection and is on his own? We know he can beat up girls, but he wouldn't stand much of a chance against anyone else. It'd be a shame if he was convicted of another crime and ended up in prison.

Gargoyles were designed to be ugly. But they represented good spirits, not evil ones, whose ugliness frightened evil spirits away. We really need a good spirit to frighten Rottenhouse away, or failing that, dump boiling oil on him.

What happened to wanting to be a nurse/medic?

If I was karma I'd slap him in the center of the biggest group of the smelliest most virulent open wound infections I could find.

No mask. No gloves. Just a pen knife and the oldest first aid manual on the planet with the most pertinent pages missing and no way out.

What a waste of oxygen he is.

Since he's a nazi, it will probably have something to do with meth.

Rittenhouse is a murdering dolt. There is no way he could come up with this.

(And this from the same people who blame tv and video games for the endless slaughter in American life.)
