    I don’t hate the guy. It’s obvious he has some mental issues. Probably did this to try and get some press. Sure worked at first. Then people looked further into the story. That’s what everybody should strive to do. Look further into it. Don’t take everything at face value or you just look dumb when you make hot takes and the truth comes out a week later.

    The only thing I find funny about this is the tribal mentality we are currently seeing of the far left. A lot don’t even wanna address this. No way a black man could ever fake a hate crime. Like that tweet I posted the other day. Being a victim is the thing these days. Fake outrage and playing victim. It’s dangerous shit.

    It’s also a reflection on society today. People will do anything for attention. Anything. It’s sick. We have a real issue in this country with that shit. Social media is a fucking problem. Victimhood is a fucking problem. Nobody is honest these days. Shits fake. It’s games.

    there is "tribal" mentality for both sides. (see: Pizza Gate, and just about every post maris makes).

    Just wondering, I quickly read his wiki page (because outside of this thread I have no idea who this guy is), but it appears he did not go to college and only has a high school education.

    So while I know that going to college does not mean you are smarter, it definitely feels like this is someone who thinks they are significantly smarter than he really is.

    I wonder if all of the ugly women I see wearing revealing clothes and taking selfies in the gym went to college. There could be a link.

    I wonder if people who make poor attempts at snarky comments on a message board went to college. There could be a link.

    Odd how you don't make these comments in the threads highlighting the rights tribal mentality.

    Hate crimes are up 17% since Trump was elected.

    Let's not let Jussie being a fucking IDIOT and setting us back make that fact go unnoticed.

    Also, to the folks so ready to impugn Jussie (rightfully so) for his false police report, are you willing to do the same for all the white people making false reports on the EPIC proportions of brown people they're calling the police on?

    Probably not.

    White people are just gonna use this to call future hate crimes hoaxes...

    sorry, my comment was more of a self deprecating comment.

    Calling the cops and saying "there's a black guy with little white kid, check him out" is the same thing as this?

    That's what most of these nosy white women calling the cops are doing.

    I don't think all of them find it funny, let alone a few of them. MarAzul is the one who chose the tag for the title (btw, is there an option for nothing?).

    Oh and do you have proof that all of those "hate crimes" that are up 17 percent aren't black guys drawing swastikas on shit?


    Yep they're all fake now except that recent Sikh guy getting attacked or abused or whatever it was.

    Filing a false police report is just that.

    I'm not parsing shit.

    You call the police for no reason, you should get in trouble.

    So yeah.
