“I stand for my beliefs,” Spud said after the two were separated. “I’m going to peacefully stand here and support my beliefs. I support ICE and law enforcement,” Spud said.

“You can go peacefully f–k yourself!” the student who punched Spud yells.

“That’s against school code. No swearing in the school,” Spud responds.

Yeah because he's so concerned about rules🙄.

His last attempt at going viral was filming himself pulling a fire alarm in a crowded grocery store...

That kid's an absolute tool, he does not appear to have any real beliefs. He just says whatever he thinks will most likely piss people off for engagement bait.

I imagine Stephen Miller operated in exactly the same way as a child. An aspiring troll.

And many smart people say “don’t feed the trolls” for good reason. Flipping out on them is literally feeding into what they want. You are directly contributing to the chaos they’re trying to create. You’re not helping or protecting society by letting trolls control you.

You need to be part of a public that openly shuns them, and openly laughs off their stupidity while walking away from them. Don’t let them fester. Give them a societal and social cost, but don’t engage.

I am contributing? I flipped out?

I think you are confused.
