I’m putting that fact in a headline because somebody needs to.

For the past 15 months, most “news” outlets have been skirting around one simple fact: Kyle Rittenhouse has never shot a black person. Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber, the men who were killed while attacking Rittenhouse, were both white. Gaige Grosskreutz, the man who was shot while pointing a gun at Rittenhouse, is white.

A lot of people still don’t know that fact, because the media they trust to give them the news has hidden it from them. It doesn’t fit the preferred narrative. It doesn’t help promote “social justice.”

Under normal circumstances, our moral, ethical, and intellectual betters in the press wouldn’t really care about three white guys getting shot by another white guy. But because it happened during a Black Lives Matter riot, somehow those three have become honorary black people. Rittenhouse is a “white supremacist” for defending his life from the white men who attacked him. Rosenbaum, Huber, and Grosskreutz are now proxies for Jacob Blake, by some process of leftist alchemy that will only mystify the uninitiated.

Here’s an example of what I’m talking about, from an alleged news outlet:
