Jussie Smollett "attack"

[Dan Druff]

This entire incident makes a very strong case that most criminals are simply not very smart or good at what they do.

If you're going to stage a hate crime against yourself, you couldn't do much of a worse job than this.

Most criminals? You mean the ones that are caught?

This uhhhh person set back liberal causes a month.

I was all over the kids in the MAGA hats. I felt it became viral before media. Then media covered it because it was so strong of imagery even if misleading because it had already shot all over social media. I never heard about this Smollet shit until I started hearing rightwing friends talk about the media etc. LOL. Not sure why that is.. It did expose a lot of dumb hollywood types for being dumb.

It is all dumb tribal shit TBH. All these people getting worked up over this from either side are quite biased even though almost none of them realizse it.

Well, of course people speaking loudest about this are biased. That's the case about most political/social issues.

But this really is a win for Trump and his supporters.

The media and idiot Hollywood types keep making themselves look stupid when they rant about "Trump's America" and all of its bigotry, and then it turns out the catalysts for their rants end up either being a hoax or something totally misleading.

If "Trump's America" is so bad, surely they could make actual incidents like this viral, right?

Jussie didn't realize it at the time, but he was doing Trump a huge favor by his actions. He knew the media was so eager for anti-Trump rhetoric that he felt he'd kill two birds with one stone, both making Trump/MAGA guys look bad AND making himself into a martyr and increasing his name recognition.

Instead, he fucked up his career and just made it look like that all the hype about increased bigotry under Trump is a big hoax.

Great job.
