Twitter Schools Matthew Modine on His Absurd Kyle Rittenhouse Slam

Matthew Modine is an actor Full Metal JacketFame takes his art very seriously. He told an interviewer for Collider last year why he’s so careful about his performances.

“When you stand on a stage, when you’re projected onto a motion picture screen, the things that you do and the things that you say will have an impact on those people’s lives,” Modine said.

His Twitter account is not as serious for him.

The Stranger ThingsStar shared questions related to Kyle Rittenhouse’s case via the social media site. At the Kenosha Riots’ height, Rittenhouse shot three people. He killed two and injured one. The teen’s claims of self defense were judged credible by the jury, which acquitted Rittenhouse of all charges on Friday.

Even though Rittenhouse had been convicted, Rittenhouse was not charged. The Left continued to call Rittenhouse a white supremacist savage, despite the fact that the case facts were in Rittenhouse’s favor. The truth has suffered the worst media coverage, with MSNBC’s anchors doing most of the damage.

That may explain Modine’s stance on the high-profile trial. Take this tweet as an example of how Modine got his talking points via fake news outlets.

He received a quick response to the tweet, mostly from those eager to inform him about all of the errors made.

Modine isn’t the only celebrity to attack Rittenhouse without the full set of facts at their disposal. Stars like John Cusack, Dave Bautista, Vincent D’Onofrio, Rosanna Arquette, George Takei and Katy Stoll similarly slammed on social media.
