  1. Another fun fact is that the headline is still there, despite the contents of the article being retracted.
  2. If I’m being honest, Thursday and Friday have made me much more depressed about the future of this country than Wednesday did.
  3. What planet do you live on and when did they get internet access?
  4. The bottom line is that the violence will continue as long as the level of personal outrage is dependent on the political views of the victim.
  5. Guess we need to issue an Executive Order banning "very hard Republicans." There's clear evidence now that they raise murderers.
  6. Already posted in this thread, but it's online nerd shit. https://www.theverge.com/politics/777313/charlie-kirks-alleged-killer-scratched-bullets-with-a-helldivers-combo-and-a-furry-sex-meme
  7. Man, you're really hung up on that one word while completely ignoring the greater context of what it could mean.
  8. I too wish that real life Charlie Kirk was the same person as eulogy Charlie Kirk.
  9. Fucking yes! That's what makes all of this so fucking frustrating. Both sides are like 95% the same. We are all just trying to do our best to raise our kids, make some money, and have some fun. We've both got normies and weirdos and online freaks and political dorks. But for some reason, we keep electing and platforming the people (including, unfortunately, Charlie Kirk) who draw attention to our differences. The President of the United States said today that he "couldn't care less" about violence from those on the right. The country will not survive with this attitude. If we as a country do not want this man to die in vain, then we can start electing unifiers instead of dividers. We can recognize that it is unhealthy to immediately assume every horrible act is committed by someone that embodies all of the characteristics we personally hate. We can acknowledge that the world is so much nicer when you aren't fucking filled with carefully algorithm'd rage pumped into your brain 24/7. I'm not holding my breath, but I'd sure like to see it.
  10. Hey, maybe this will teach the world to not assume next time that the perpetrator is the literal personification of your political enemy ... lol jk
  11. edited - likely not the same guy
  12. Might just be anecdotal but the Trayvon Martin killing was the first time I really noticed the seemingly normal people offline posting some really horrendous shit online. Corresponds pretty closely with the rise of social media.
  13. Gossip might be the only thing this man has ever truly loved. I actually don’t think it’s any more complicated than that, in this instance.
  14. President of the United States and there’s still nothing this man loves more than having a little bit of juicy gossip.
  15. Yeah, a lot of people who I knew were likely Republican voters but I suspected stayed away from a lot of the trollish online discourse were clearly very big fans of Charlie. Eye opening.
  16. It seems obvious to me that Kash Patel and crew are royally fucking this thing up so far, but I recognize I carry a political bias into that opinion. Do others with varying political beliefs see it the same way?
  17. LOL at Burns thinking things like "fucking up your job massively with the entire country watching" matter anymore.
  18. It's been said before, but she is a clearly mentally unwell individual who might have found the only profession on the planet that keeps her out of a psychiatric ward.
  19. Yep, the behaviors I've seen over the last 24 hours worry me almost as much as the act itself. This country is cooked.
  20. It’s expected of Crowder, but shame on the real news outlets that amplified it.
  21. It is obvious that one party has been much more successful over the last decade at influencing young minds, as is evidenced by the reaction to the events of the last 24 hours. It isn’t the party typically associated with tolerance.
  22. Surely this applies to all political violence and now just this singular incident, right? RIGHT?!
