Probably time for a Kyle Rittenhouse thread.

From reading the youtube comments people seem split 50/50 (probably along party lines) as to whether Kyle's crying is genuine or fake

Interestingly enough, the last time I've heard of people making accusations of fake crying was following the Sandy Hook massacre, where there was a conspiracy that due to analysis of the parents of the victims "crying" in interviews, there was the thought that they were actually "crisis actors" and not even really the parents of the victims. One notable video showed a dad of a deceased victim laughing and making jokes with the interviewer before transitioning into "crying" for the interview, so people thought he was a crisis actor

Even if we are coming from the assumption that Kyle is a sociopath with no regard for human life, it would still be more plausible than not that he would show some emotion when recounting events where he believed his own life was in danger. I've also seen different people who DID get convicted of first or second degree murder appear traumatized when relating during a confession to police as to how the victims appeared as they were dying, notably the sounds and movements they were making. Even cold-hearted killers have sometimes found that disturbing, usually because they were low IQ morons who's only impression of what a human looks like as it's dying was from tv or movies. Someone that's hunted (not that I'm a big hunter or anything) usually understands that a large animal dying is not as fast, quiet, or glamorous as the movies make it out to be, and that includes us humans

I'm rambling but anyway, not gonna comment as to whether I believe his response other than that

im a leftist (up until the party fliip) and I think his crying was real, because I am not a heartless conservative (which is since the party flip is what democrats are made up of) so yeah idk just trying to call democrat heartless conservatives after the party flip.
