  1. I was downvoting it because it was a stupid comment, not because I think it’s good that he was murdered.
  2. The nuance that you’re failing to grasp is that none of us like that he was murdered but are having a hard time being sad for one of the individuals most responsible for your complaints above. It sucks that this happened generally, it sucks that this is where we are, it sucks that the people who fall for this stuff again and again are falling for it once more with the revisionist history of who he was and what he stood for, and even if someone does the sowing it’s a shame when they reap something like this. It would be morally and intellectually inconsistent for people who share your sentiments above to not recognize Kirk’s role in getting us here as we talk about what his death means.
  3. You don’t need to imagine. Literally do the opposite of the imagining that you are currently doing.
  4. We don’t know who did this and why, but the only people who think of Charlie Kirk as a Christian are Charlie Kirk supporters.
  5. Guys guys guys, a man is dead. Let’s honor his memory by setting aside petty grievances and not getting tangled up in asinine bad faith arguments over how much we can assign the blame for gun violence on black people.
  6. If they catch the shooter at a fast food restaurant I hope it’s some weird regional thing like a Taco John or Runza. Maybe Perkins.
  7. I used to bullseye womp rats in my T-16 back home, they're not much bigger than a prairie dog.
  8. Your hero protagonist literally rapes children but OK guy
  9. I keep meaning to make a double mast for that day.
  10. This comment has me wondering how ( if at all) unprecedented it would be to half mast flags on federal buildings for some unelected political commentator.
  11. Sorry, quickly read my bad
  12. He was one of the right’s best and brightest, and a moral leader for their cause. He will have a lasting impact on history and I’m saddened that he was killed.
  13. Likely just Bayesian probability in action
  14. The timing of what Kirk was saying with when he was shot makes me think that there wasn’t a lot of time spent for sound to travel and then the bullet to travel. No idea if 200 yards is short enough but it seemed like the shooter picked his moment.
  15. ok yeah that's fairly stupid, although obviously people who have no information at all and haven't seen any footage and are reacting live
  16. is there video of this?
  17. Goddammit. This sucks for a lot of reasons. I hate the idea of Charlie Kirk being a martyr.
  18. Reading books is gay ergo illegal. Quid quo pro.
  19. hey he doesn't fuck children as far as we know i mean, he probably does, but we don't know he does
  20. Just because you specifically are triggered doesn't mean it's inflammatory. Your gender and sexuality is not political - just because you specifically vote for people who are also as stupidly confused about this (or as cynically exploitative of it) )as you are should not make this political. It is political because of your own stupid politics, not because other people are triggering you by trying to have conversation. Your confidence that everyone else is to blame for your dumb feelings is a huge part of this, but you can escape to places where people will sell your attention and buy your support by telling you that it is the other people's fault for causing you to feel this way - the industrialization of this process is another huge part of the problem.
  21. Their dads and other male adult role models are insecure shitheads and they’ve been raised on the mental corn syrup of YouTube algorithms.
  22. I was hoping it was just very tired and would disappear but this guy is dead as fuck. Batshepsut. I am grossed out by the bat mummy but also am actually concerned about rabies or whatever. I assume it’d be fine if I gloved up with a mask and long sleeve shirt and then showered after but yeah I don’t want any part of this rat.
