Kirk was not a good man, but he, like any other, deserved a proper trial for his evil deeds, so I don’t celebrate. I do not cry for him either, especially that he died trying to defend the very thing that killed him. This is not a victory in itself, some of you might be in real danger - you need to organize your community and defend, stand up for each other. Trump already escalated violenceas much as he could, and society is running fast to catch up
i dont celebrate his death, in a better world there wouldnt be this many shootings in the US, it should be a rarity if at all rather than something people have just sort of become numb to. The post is more meant to illustrate the irony of it his statements and his eventual demise but Im not of the opinion that people should just be shot even if i do think they are bad people.
Yeah, I get it. Rn tho am so tired of the topic, a man is dead and that’s it, everything to be said has already been said - at this point it’s more akin to distraction from the fact project 2025 people are gonna work even harder to strip you of your rights (which they already attempted)
i agree
In a just world he would have been shut down the moment he started to promote his hateful ideology.
Short of that I will celebrate horrible people no longer existing however it happens because their absence is a net benefit. Especially if they die to the thing they were promoting.
Fair, I just straight up believe this death doesn’t really matter, like what are they gonna do that they didn’t already try. And on the opposite side, Kirk was not special - all he had was connenctions, loyalty to the grift and media training - that sounds easy to replace, and maybe his successor won’t be as mediocre of a speaker. It’s just a clear visual point for the historians to mark when tension popped
If celebrating keeps morale high I don’t see much harm in it. Sure, in a just world he would have gotten a trial, and sure, it won’t change anything, but you gotta take what you can get.
Exactly. The administration already declared war on Chicago and are calling it something something Midway after a WWII battle.
There are other comparable conservative shills already, and they are all as mediocre or worse speakers.
It’s called “foreshadowing”, right?
It really backfired on him.
