  1. Because Democrats were really banking on the white evangelical vote?
  2. I will happily bet him $5k that he's not bonafide antifa (are they even still a thing?). But he's already hedging.
  3. Already moving goalposts. You said antifa. Most here have already said that he's almost certainly not going to fit into one box, none of these alt edgelord community members do. He's probably going to be a hodgepodge of conflicting batshit grievances.
  4. Jemele Hill and an obese woman. Gee, I wonder where MAGA is going to take the conversation.
  5. So weird how you still have no clue how your side operates. Yesterday, it was all "string the shooter up and make them suffer" from your elected thought leaders; now it's "pray for his lost soul." Why do you suppose that it? What do you think changed?
  6. Listen, MAGA is an enigma wrapped in a riddle of conflicting evidence that somehow all makes sense.
  7. Eh, nothing wrong with that. Just saying he was hoping it wasn't a Utahn. I get that. He's the same dude who told everyone (*cough* MAGA *cough*) to be wary of the Russian and Chinese propaganda that they were reading yesterday.
  8. I get talking the dead up (especially ones who shrouds themselves in thick Jesus armor) and remembering and exaggerating the best parts about them. I get being very upset that many people are being extremely harsh and critical of someone who was just murdered and leaves behind a young family. But how do they expect people to NOT respond negatively to complete horseshit like that?
  9. Were his classes all virtual because of COVID? Maybe that's why he dropped out! Without [check notes] Utah's draconian COVID mandates, he would have stayed in school, tactfully dodged indoctrination, and become an upstanding conservative citizen. I found their new angle! Half kidding.
  10. So, gut feeling, does this seem like someone who was politically obsessed and killed Kirk because Kirk told truths in the public square, and he had to be stopped? Or just another perpetually online, shit for brains kid radicalized by alt, edgelord, online communities with conflicting or nonsensical politics and grievances (or apolitical/nihilistic)? In the same vein as a very long line of other shooters.
  11. Good for her, sincerely. Whatever keeps youths away from these shittastic dark web nihilistic loser cesspool spirals. Though the lines are a little blurry in this case.
  12. I can't envision a scenario where I watch American television news ever again live coverage of emergencies or something. Text-only and/or international.
  13. Maybe, maybe not. But, to your point, certainly way too soon to declare it. Even if he is proven to be a full-fledged Groyper--and not just Groyper-curious--it's not like they're a tightly-knit ideology with common goals. Just because some apparently hated Kirk for being pro-Israel, who the fuck knows what this dude's deal is.
  14. Just some good ol' fashioned immigrant dehumanizing, what's the problem?
  15. Anybody have this video from a non-horrid source who I don't want to give clicks to?
  16. Strangely, people are a little on edge from hearing or reading friends, family, and associates--who aren't familiar with our political leanings because we're not psychopaths who talk about them irl--talk about this being the turning point and wanting retribution and war against an entire "left" ideology, not just extremists, for 3 straight days.
  17. Honest question, not trying to be a dick: why do you think people in Trump's orbit--certainly including Kirk--seem to blow such loud dog whistles for white supremacists and white replacement theorists?
  18. He's a dangerous lunatic that's going to get people killed and then attempt to justify it, but I'll accept asshole.
  19. I wouldn't use that as confirmation either since the obvious bias, and I've seen this reported nowhere else. But, at best, he seems to be Groyper adjacent.
  20. Joe Biden, truly the Darth Vader of our times. Unbelievable.
  21. The President, after finding out the shooter wasn't going to push the narrative that he obviously desperately wanted, sending out a message of unity about how we ALL need to look in the mirror and do better would have been great! Even knowing he was only doing it because his balloon popped would have been a great message for an upset populace. Or just, like, not tell the world that it's all one side's fault, so the other side is justified in their actions.
  22. Meh, I'm okay with the media taking time to make sure they have their ducks in row about a world they are completely unfamiliar with (strangely because we sure do get a lot of shooters who come from that world).
  23. Fair. The scoreboard part of this shit absolutely sucks. It's gross and a sad mirror of our society. But, make no mistake, had the scoreboard gone the other way today, it would have gone a lot further than "mocking".
  24. You don't find it news that today the POTUS hand-waved away some political violence so long as it's to stop our country's "enemies"? Odd.
