The Rittenhouse trial is a chance to think about how political narrative works. This is separate from the rights and wrongs of what happened. What we are interested in here is how the political narrative can be explained, in the same way that we might be interested in the technique of a plot in a piece of fiction. None of this means I am taking a side or a view on what happened and whether it should have happened. I am only interested in trying to parse some of the ways political narratives are now working.
