Is anyone surprised that Kyle’s far-right political handlers ensured this particular detail didn’t make it into his book? (See photo) [https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GKEtAA-aoAAWkuS?format=jpg&name=large - Rittenhouse being rejected by the marines for not even meeting the minimum “spell your name using only letters” score]

Regarding his online high school diploma, we had to force him to complete the four years of credits in just ten months, which he did using the “Google machine.”

We invested significant effort to craft the image you witnessed during the trial. We outfitted him in new suits, arranged for his haircut every weekend during the trial, and dedicated over 200 hours to prepare him for direct and cross-examination. We employed the world’s leading jury consultant and conducted extensive research through three mock trials to identify the ideal jurors and the most effective approach for his testimony.

Transforming a middle school dropout who was “angry at the world” with a history of violence and an unhealthy obsession with guns and killing into a respectable young man with a desire for higher education and a promising future was no easy feat.

It was a meticulously crafted facade, which we sincerely hoped he would grow into. Instead, he squandered a full scholarship to study any subject at any university in the country to become a divisive douchebag and antagonize black Americans on college campuses. Kyle failed to learn a single thing. He remains the same uneducated, arrogant, and antagonistic individual, incapable of telling the truth.

Now, he genuinely believes he is the show pony we created and has surrounded himself with sycophants who fuel his inflated ego because they prioritize their political agenda and Christian Nationalist worldview over his well-being.

Despite my efforts to guide him toward a better path in life, the allure of notoriety triumphed over the prospect of putting in the hard work of pursuing an education. Kyle is ill-equipped to offer advice to young people. I regret my role in shaping him into whatever he has become. If I had known what I know now about Kyle’s history, I wouldn’t have been involved.

Tuition, books, fees, rent for an apartment, monthly living stipend. Literally everything was to be paid for by a very wealthy individual that wanted to see Kyle do something productive with his second chance.

Tossed it away.

Lmao he bought the bullshit.

You have to have open contempt for your supporters and shit on them while telling them if they were a real man they’d give you money.

Honestly I dunno if I’d say he “tossed it away” by becoming a grifter. That seems to me like just taking the path of least resistance to a paycheck.

Is this a joke or just like a non robust CTE screening

I keep seeing people saying that him failing the ASVAB wasn’t the cause of the permanent rejection. Supposedly he kept sending videos of himself field stripping and assembling an ar-15 to his recruiters and they interpreted it as a threat

I’d wager it’s either something like that or he was branded as a right-wing extremist which they’ve been wary of openly recruiting since the Iraq War. They do everything possible to get someone signing a contract and the ASVAB is like one day of studying things he should have learned by age 12.

Is that the one where the psychologist makes you look at a big book of penises and then brings in their colleagues and keeps showing you more penises while they all take notes and ask “does this one look like a penis? And this one? This one is a photo of my dog. Really? That one too?”?

It’s never not funny watching the right-wing machine try and assimilate someone from MAGA country only to watch them shit on the floor, roll around in it, and proceed to run and jump all over the furniture.

You could know enough about his history when he fucking murdered people for the sake of larping. Fuck this guy and his regret. The only people dumber than Rittenhouse in this situation are the people who tried to help him.

lmao that they think it was their brilliant help that got him off, and not the fact that he’s the judge’s pet dog being tried by a Winston Payne-level prosecutor and facing a chud jury who would never have convicted no matter what.

They literally believe that straight white men are under threat. It’s sad, funny, and scary all at the same time.
