Now that he has been acquitted, it is important to analyze the narrative about Kyle Rittenhouse traveling to Kenosha, Wisconsin, to
protect a car dealership from being vandalized. Many leftist politicians and pundits have categorized Rittenhouse as a vigilante for his actions; the same people have declared how vigilantism is criminal and should not be tolerated. Yet, these very same people change their standards when it is done under the banners of Black Lives Matter and antifa. These vigilantes receive a different narrative — portrayed as heroic and fighting back against injustice.
Whether or not one approves of Rittenhouse’s actions, he was doing what he believed to be right. However, the same standards should apply to those BLM and antifa rioters. Rittenhouse shouldn’t be demonized while many on the Left celebrate those of BLM and antifa essentially as freedom fighters. Democrats weaponize the law and public opinion against those that run counter to their ideologies. They condemn Rittenhouse as a vigilante, but they love vigilantism when they are BLM or antifa members.
Consider the rhetoric used to describe Rittenhouse by many on the Left — starting with President Joe Biden, who inexplicably labeled Rittenhouse a white supremacist. There is a long list of other politicians and pundits who have vilified him with similar nefarious adjectives. Yet, when it came to antifa and the violence they caused throughout the country, Biden refused to acknowledge they even existed, calling them “an idea, not an organization.” Furthermore, Biden has failed to say anything negative about the destruction caused by the BLM protests that have resulted in people being killed and millions of dollars of destruction. In those instances, the vigilantes are providing a
“wake-up call for our nation.” The hypocrisy is disgusting.
“I won’t traffic in fear and division. I won’t fan the flames of hate,” Biden said in June 2020. Except that is exactly what Biden did when he vilified a teenager who defended himself from being savagely beaten and potentially killed. Rittenhouse killed two people in self-defense; those harmed and killed by BLM and antifa rioters were acts of aggression. Biden, and his fellow Democrats, have no problem sowing divisiveness and hatred. They just do so when it is convenient for them.
