Well good for her! All she did was point out that Charlie Kirk said hateful things and she wasn’t sad he was gone, which is about as tame as an opinion piece gets. That firing had ‘butthurt white people’ all over it.

Would she want to actually return, though?

Imagine being the union rep making the phonecall...

"Good news/Bad news...we got your job at The Washington Post back..."

I'm glad he's dead, and the world is a brighter place for his lack. I only wish he'd been conscious a while to feel the doom weighing upon him.

That's the level of vitriol I would love to have read. Right-wingers got off easy.

I'm gonna be real here, journalists shouldn't be fired over opinion pieces, but also fuck opinion pieces. They had their purpose back in the day, but opinion just means clickbait anymore.

I'm surprised there's a union with any power left at the Washington Post.

After Kirk was shot and killed on 10 September 2025, Attiah took to social media and wrote: “Refusing to tear my clothes and smear ashes on my face in performative mourning for a white man that espoused violence is ... not the same as violence.” She also posted: “Part of what keeps America so violent is the insistence that people perform care, empty goodness and absolution for white men who espouse hatred and violence.”

“This decision confirms what we’ve said from the start: I was doing my job as an opinion journalist, and doing that job is not misconduct,”

Charlie Kirk's murder was a net positive for humanity and that's on Charlie.

It is astounding that the members of the Child Rapist Party can openly celebrate the attacks and murders of Democrats, and then successfully vilify people like Attiah who simply refuse to mourn the death of a vile human like Charile Kirk.

So which boogeyman is she? Socialist? Communist? ANTIFA?
