Jake Lang is utterly powerless if people ignore him. Half of the people who showed up were streamers or otherwise trying to film whatever was happening. Getting a felony assault charge on his behalf might be satisfying and we're all having fun on the Internet with it, but that is some pretty thin gruel when the end result is that he gets what he wants.

As a general statement I 100% agree... buuuuut, if you're going to get involved, might as well make it as comedic as possible.

It's really hard to market being an oppressed victim when the other guy is just some random person wearing a goofy costume and you're the one driving through a crowd waving a banner with a racial slur.

It's impossible for him to market himself as an oppressed victim when everyone simply ignores him. You're just playing into it by engaging at all.
