This is getting downvoted btw. Some of y’all just don’t have shame. This country is better when we can civilly disagree and convey our disapproval for ideology we found problematic via VOTING, lobbying and political advocacy. We aren’t a 3rd world country
Hey so political violence is bad regardless of the political affiliation of the perpetrator, and we shouldn’t be justifying or normalizing the killings of those we don’t agree with. Okay thanks

I don’t promote poltical violence I just think it’s dumb to martyr a racist who wanted to bail out a different poltical assassin, delete the civil rights act, and for women to lose individuality

I don’t disagree. His views were harmful and outdated. His views shouldn’t be celebrated, neither should he. But he should also still be alive. His death should not actively be being justified on social media. Nothing he did or said should have got him killed, just condemned as the piece of shit he was.

Not everyone is saying he should be dead but they mostly just don’t care that he’s dead cause of the harm he brought. That’s what you don’t get you are so focused on his death you can’t comprehend the harm he has left. Because of him and people like him, even tho it was a neo Nazi that killed him people are wanting to kill people on the left for literally doing shit they have done themselves for years

The right has joked and mocked the deaths of murders of others for years now but now that a racist is dead and people laugh it’s the biggest issue to you people. Republicans in congress were threatening to kill trans people out of no where but are now silent when the shooter was a straight white cis man

“You people”, dude I’m a democrat. Just not an extremist. Quite frankly the reaction from the left has been disgusting. Yes there’s the portion that just doesn’t feel bad. And I get that. I don’t necessarily feel bad, he was not a good person for our society. The portion that’s problematic is the people who laughed at it, who justified it. We can’t have that

And Boebert and MTG are fucking nut jobs but we shouldn’t extrapolate that to the entire right bc them and their far right block aren’t an accurate representation of the entire right. Sadly I’m now having to make that same argument ab the left. Not everyone on the left is justifying or celebrating this

I’m not even right wing either, I don’t identify with political parties, but what the hell man this is a terrible precedent to set for the future in terms of freedom of speech/expression. Even if Kirk is no MLK, he is going to be treated like a martyr, and I am almost certain there will be some form of movement.

Yeah my “you people” applies, you are a middle ground “both sides are bad” type. There are literal Neo Nazis running around but ya let’s act like weirdos making distasteful memes about a dead racists are the problem. You can’t act like you have a moral highground when you are outspoken about protecting the dignity of a racist when the hospital he was at was surrounded by racists chanting war cry “white men fight back”

Yes okay so we have here. The rights partisan media- generalized the left or people the left supports as terrorists, satanists, criminals, devoid of god or morality, etc. The lefts partisan media- generalizes the right as all fascists, all nazis, so on and so forth. The real problem is divisive rhetoric and purposeful polarization by our partisan media

Yeha it was but you should stay in touch with how Nazis work. They trademarked stealing other cultures imagery and art and perverting it into mouthpieces for their hate. It’s also common for them to commit acts of violence and pin it on an out group to incite further violence. Again I encourage you look further into Nick Fuentes and his group. They are literally Neo Nazis with a mic and booth

The media that says “dowe both have to come out alive?” when asked what someone would do if they were stuck in an elevator with a member of the GOP, or the one that glorifies assassinations, calls anyone remotely with an alternative view on anything political a racist, doxes people to lose their jobs, applies “nazi” to anyone with any right-wing viewpoint and repeats that they should be killed? Yeah that media

Here’s the thing point to a major leader on the left glorifying the assassination. They don’t they either thoughts and prayers or speak about gun violence. Meanwhile the right looooves violence, they were itching to exterminate trans people over this but can’t cause they had nothing to do with it. They were making up lies on the fly to try and pin it on trans people but they were all faked

“They”. They don’t exist. That’s an abstract group of people that you cannot quantify. You don’t have the specifics, and that’s the problem. You put it on anyone. These are obviously high profile people who have been outraged and put it out immaturely on others. If “they” were all eager to do so they would’ve done worse by now.

That’s not radicalization works, there’s has to be some twisted logic behind the actions they take or they lose all support. It’s how the Nazis came to power in Germany they made bullshit reasons to hate Jewish people, just like how republicans are trying to push trans hatred. If it was a trans shooter that killed Kirk hate crimes would spike so fast, I’m chiense hate crimes during Covid fast.

Yeah… that’s what I said. They were trying to pin it on trans people so they could promote violence. But after the shooter was revealed to be some white guy they still tried to blame trans people.
