I propose that many Leftists don't really care if Jussie Smollett faked his attack, and they justify his actions by claiming such attacks happen daily but only a celebrity will get noticed.
This would require an utter lack of moral standards, but it's one possible explanation for the Left's behavior.
Agree/disagree?
The Regressive Left is doing what it always does - minimally criticizing the guy, pivoting, and then attacking the Right.
They've also done this after jihadist attacks, riots and the shutting down of freedom of expression.
It's their schtick.

Oh please.
The Right does it every bit as much.
The evidence of that is all over this chat forum.
Actually, the Right tends to have more decency.
The left doesn't really condemn communists and socialists, nor do they condemn antifa.
Yet. . . . When we have an obviously far fight poster around here? One that flings racist, anti-Semitic and bigoted language? MOST posters do not like to associate with that sort of shit.
No one cared for McRacist, nor did they think much of Tank, and I don't think a whole lot of folks take Odious very seriously either.
These folks wear their white supremacy/white nationalism on their sleeve.
OTH, the left is starting to go full retard over this socialism, open borders, etc. shit. Seriously. It is starting sound ridiculous. And the liberals tolerate and support them?!?
It's like they don't realize this is UNITED STATES MESSAGE BOARD, not THE FIRST INTERNATIONALE MESSAGE BOARD.
