You realize that you can apply that standard to just about every video of someone being brutalized by a mob.
You are blaming the victim with no evidence, because you hope it’s true that he committed some sort of crime before the video started, and the mob was just a bunch of good samaritans trying to hold him for the cops.
But we have zero evidence of ahything like that. It looks to me like some protestors tried to block the road, he tried to go around/through them (without hurting anyone, apparently), then he got trapped by a barricade and the mob descended on him.
He might have made a poor judgement call, but so does a woman who chooses to walk through a bad neighborhood in a miniskirt. But if she gefs raped, it’s pretty obnoxious to blame the victim for her choice in fashion, even while acknowledging that it wasn’t a smart thing to do. The blame falls squarely on the rapist.
