Probably too soon but idc, Charlie Kirk dying is a huge loss for republicans. Turning point us was extremely instrumental in helping Trump getting elected. He probably was one if not the biggest factor
He already somehow got the youth to vote for Trump and I don’t think his death will sway them left if anything it will radicalize them more imo

I like how people should be empathetic and yet all I see are these "empathetic" right wingers hate scrolling and continuing to fan the flames of violence that led to this.

You would think they'd be mourning over their friend, rather than chase the next grift but lo and behold, it's business as usual.
Alex Jones' reaction was talking about how great of a shot it was and brainstorming what kind of gun it was, and then looping footage of the blood gushing out the side of Kirk's neck while saying the Democrats killed him. This was ostensibly a colleague and friend, and his reaction was to just loop his friend getting fukking merked in front of his kids while talking business as usual.

It's so wild to me... reminds me of the days after 9/11 when everyone got real comfortable watching people jump to their deaths.

I will never not be creeped out by people who can watch shyt like this over and over. I saw the close video once and I cursed myself for the rest of the night because I couldn't unsee it even though I couldn't give two shyts about that man taking another breath.

There's motherfukkers that KNEW and LIKED the dude and they're able to sit down and loop the shyt so they can work out if he was wearing a vest or if it was a trained marksman. Psychopathic WEIRDOS.

The dispossession of the working class, 30 million who have been laid off because of deindustrialization, has engendered rage, despair, dislocation, alienation and fostered magical thinking. It has fed conspiracy theories, a lust for vengeance and a celebration of violence as a purgative for social and cultural decay.
Christian fascists — like Kirk and Trump — have astutely preyed on this despair. They stoked the embers. Kirk’s killing will set it alight.

Dissidents, artists, gays, intellectuals, the poor, the vulnerable, people of color, those who are undocumented or who do not mindlessly repeat the cant of a perverted Christian nationalism, will be condemned as human contaminants to be excised from the body politic. They will become, as in all diseased societies, sacrificial victims in the vain attempt to achieve moral renewal and recapture a lost glory and prosperity.

When children’s YouTuber Ms. Rachel said “Jesus says to love God and to love your neighbor as yourself,” Kirk retorted that “Satan has quoted scripture plenty” and added “by the way Ms. Rachel, you might wanna crack open that Bible of yours, in a lesser referenced part of the same part of scripture is in Leviticus 18, is that thou shall Lay with another man and be stoned to death.”

He demanded we roll back the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and disparaged civil rights leaders such as Martin Luther King. He was demeaning towards Black people, “If I’m dealing with somebody in customer service who’s a moronic Black woman..is she there because of affirmative action?” He said “prowling Blacks” are targeting white people “for fun.” He blamed Black Lives Matter for “destroying the fabric of our society."
