Sarah McBride be like, "But I chose to vote yes because I believe there must be no mistake that I condemn violence in this moment, and that is what the heart of this resolution is about. We could debate language, but at its core, it was a statement about political violence.”
Voting yes isn’t a stand against political violence. It’s about deifying a very bad man with extremely harmful rhetoric. Why not make a national day of mourning for all the kids killed in shootings?
That right, because Dems don’t really care about them either. They just want to be re-elected and make their friends some money.
Sarah is just as bad as everyone else if she can’t even protect her own rights. I guess her status in life will protect her? Yeah, totally ignore those slain Democrats that no one talks about, Sarah.
Pathetic. Have some fucking courage, ya coward.
Every Dem is a POS.
Release the Trump/Epstein files
This dude is not MLK, capitulating will only make the demands stupider.
they think appeasement will save the some of the Dems from retribution, they are doing it because thier donors are pressuring them to do it.
Yes let’s do that … by stop talking about him, forget him entirely and focus all our attention on the fascists still around.
Fuckin rights, I’m way over hearing about that little cunt
This is pretty much what I did until a few weeks ago.
Totally forgot about the guy. His existence in my life peaked with the website that let you guess if his face was the correct size or not.
for a while he was a background right wing talking head that appears on reddit posts from time to time along with the other grifters.
Yep me too. Just another loud NPC in the village square, spouting about side quests that would negatively affect my build if I started them.
Utter waste of protein. His carbon is being put to far better use now.
The right are doing their damnedest to whitewash his image and turn him into some virtuous victim. If everyone else stops talking about him, then the right will have won the narrative war.
Are we still talking about him? Isn’t it about time we just moved on from that?
I even blocked keywords on lemmy from showing up but this one slipped through. Holy shit I’m so over hearing about that little tool
one of our most influential enem[ies]
Reactionaries have been working overtime to exaggerate and inflate Kirk’s importance and influence. It’s weird so many on the left are helping them with that project.
are the DNC afraid of reprisal form the right? or thier own seats? or the fact that most of them have megadonors which is likely pressuring them to support charlie kirk or else no funding for thier campaigns.
They’re overreacting because they can’t allow this to become normal otherwise they’re at risk of having it done to them. It’s fine when it’s children because they’re not children. It’s fine when it’s black people because they’re not black. But it’s definitely not fine when it’s white men with money who spew hatred and try to take away your rights because that describes them perfectly.
Hot take, but let’s kill less kids and more rich white men.
The problem is that republicans across the country are holding vigils, mass funerals, trying to rename highways, putting up memorials on every state campus, holding days of national remembrance, and Im sure more. Ive been massively vocal about the joy of his death since the first minute I e heard about it as well as trying to fight back against his “he was just a debator” image being spread around. I do not want to continue to talk about him, but the more the right loses their minds over him the more I need to fight back against his false persona.
i am constantly telling people he was a white supremacist fascist and a mere difference of opinion this was not. they simply don’t care. they don’t see it as justifiable regardless. we’re fucking cooked lol. it’s over, man. nobody believes in taking out nazis anymore. nobody sees the real imminent danger and threat of fascism.
Time to flood the zone with martyrs I suppose. They should be made afriad to hold their “vigils”.
He is being used as the Horst Wessel. It’s in the Nazi playbook.
Turning Point USA has over 800 chapters on college campuses. He wasn’t exactly a nobody.
They’re really gushing over him.
Yeah, really weird, they shoot themselves in the foot at the worst possible time.
Who?
Shit was a like a GWAR concert.
Not enough spray for a gwar concert, kirk looked like if the blood spay thing malfunctions and just leaked all at once.
GWAR must be working on the props as we speak!
including trans Rep. McBride
well yeah she’s a democrat lol they are fascists when it comes down to it. they will always be on the side of fascism.
Ah yes, the famously fascist policies of… inclusivity and bodily autonomy.
here let me break it down for you because i think you’re dumb:
when you scratch a liberal a fascist bleeds > meaning when you attack fascism at its core you will have liberal defenders calling for decorum and peace
what the fuck would you label her support as?
You just rephrased the same sentence three ways and tried to use that as evidence for itself. You might not understand logic, but the rest of us do, and aren’t amused.
what i’m saying is extremely easy to follow. it isn’t my fault you’re fucking dumb.
Try being nicer.
In my experience, it’s the people who go around calling other people dumb who turn out to be the idiots in the end.
how convenient for you
