      gosh i must be stupid i’ve never even heard of copability! the issue isn’t charlie and his behaviour. it’s the behaviour and statements of the people responding to that which is presently at question. you’re endorsing political violence and the withholding of empathy. you’re a good little disciple of Charlie.

        I’m endorsing the golden rule. Charlie Kirk endorsed violence, racism and homophobia just to name a few. This is exactly what he wanted, just not to happen to him. The shooter thought Charlie wasn’t conservative enough, by the way.

        withholding of empathy

        Do you think there are any situations where it is reasonable to withhold empathy?

        From my understanding the Kirk fellow was a demagogue who was happy to promote all sorts of vile ideas for personal enrichment.

        From my time in the US, I understand that this sort of thinking is haram, but I have enough knowledge of comparable demagogues in other countries to not buy into the “sincere belief” gibberish.
