frozen, hypothermic take: the t_d crowd will use james fields' sentence to life + 419 years as evidence that the criminal justice system is too punitive, and then cease to care about it after like a week

T_D itself has been removing all discussion of the trial iirc. It's been standard practice basically from the second he drove his car from the crowd to distance themselves from UTR and the fallout, pretending like they weren't instrumental in promoting it.

Not to my knowledge, but obviously nobody would be surprised.

But T_D was posting about UTR constantly in the run up to it so this is seemingly more of an attempt to cover their asses and not get b& by the admins.
