It’s Not My Fault, By Via Getty
One year later, the legendary lectern thief from the Capitol riots (dubbed “Via Getty” by Twitter) breaks his silence.
Hello, my name is Via Getty. Or that is what you call me now. I am fine with it. I like attention. I love attention. Literally any at all.
I just wanted to let you know it’s more complicated than it seems. Please don’t judge me by that one photo. I was having a great time, but it’s not what it looks like. It’s a far more complicated story.
Please listen to me. I need to be heard. My name is Via Getty. Listen to my words.
Once upon a time — actually, forget that, too long of a story, and I’m already on trial for sedition. (Did I attempt to incite an insurrection? Yes. Overthrow the United States government? Yes. Literally, attempt to overthrow representative democracy and institute a feral mob as Robespierre-esque government instead alongside a Nazi militia? Honestly, yes.)
