Namely, Schroeder on Monday — the final court hearing before the trial begins — ruled the people who 17-year-old Rittenhouse gunned down in a street can’t be referred to as “victims.”
However, Schroeder will allow the two deceased men to be “referred to as rioters, looters or arsonists or other pejorative terms,”
but not victims.
Right why would the judge double down on bias?

Well, mainly because they *weren't* victims. Kyle was assaulted and acted completely lawfully in defending his own life per the US constitution.
"Rioters, looters or arsonists" are not pejorative terms, they are simply descriptive terms given the facts and evidence of that night. It is completely relevant to the details of the case, given that kyle was there to help the overburdened police deal with rioting, looting, and arson.
