I hope this was a turning point for this country
Charlie Kirk died while doing what he loved:
Being a horrible horrible person, and a blight on humanity.
YouTube randomly gave me this:

Yes, I would like for him to be next if that's what they're saying.
It's absolutely okay to feel relief when you experience the death of an abusive person.
All the pearl clutching from people who openly support a man "Who could shoot someone on 5th ave and not lose a single vote."
I'd call them hypocrites but they're too busy praying in public to hear me.
Their messaging is also weirdly contrived. They almost never do the same for deaths of innocent people, they consider them statistics rather than people. But then a bad guy meets a bad fate, and they bring out their alts accounts to tell you “yOu gUyS aRe eViL.”
Irony is lost on some people.
Yeah. Reading conservative subreddits last night was depressing. I was convinced most of the users are bots though. All of them seem to be saying the same shit.
Sadly that is actually the level of critical analysis that CK listeners operate on. The biproduct of being religiously conditioned to trust in authority without question.

Well, I say they seem like bots not because they are mad/sad he died, or about their beliefs. But just the way that thousands of people are all expressing hatred and intent for violence against the left, in very similar ways. They sound like LLM output to me.
Maple MAGA family
What a sad day to be literate.
Right wingers: how can you celebrate a murder?
Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what makes you cheer.
He was a monster. Without the Fourth Reich to prop him up, he would be just one random evil douchebag.
The world is a marginally better place with him gone. Well until they use it as pretext for carpet bombing blue cities.
They were always going to. Fuck em.
they should bomb blue MAGA cities if they exist
Yes, we should hope that the nazis bomb those people you don't like. Sounds quite reasonable. Like someone whose name eludes me might suggest.
Should I name a few? How about Clinton, Obama, Biden or every other president from that cancer country?
They ARE nazis that bomb brown people constantly all over the world.
US imperialism, warmongering and genocide collaboration is bipartisan.
But that doesn't bother them OC, only now when it's internal.
Fuck your 'Blue states'
You all deserve what you created.
"Y'all are all about 'shoot Nazis, kill Nazis' until a Nazi dies. Then it's 'Oh but that Nazi had a family.' Fuck off."
so glad that I can evade all consequences forever by knocking up bitch
I mean, I feel bad for his kids assuming it ever dawns on them that dad was famous for being a lying sack of shit and left this world after being struck with 150 grains of irony (not sure what actual weight of projectile did him in, but old milsurp seems fitting).
Well, I don't wish ill on anybody. But when it does happen to some people, schadenfreude can be enjoyable.
Rest in piss Charlie.
I wish ill on people who do evil shit. I also wish they'd see the error of their ways and make amends. They don't tend to though. Watching Charlie get so neatly picked off like a clay pigeon in a shooting gallery as he was about to spew more horseshit was highly satisfying.
I can't tell you how many times I've watched that 4 second clip. I even fucking downloaded it.
It's getting hard to find, Google has wiped it out. I found some on Facebook. Just pop, gush, and old Charlie has reached his own personal turning point.
That doesn't surprise me at all, that's why I downloaded it. I even showed it to a right-winger last night at work. Maybe he makes the connection that these ideas are dangerous, maybe he doesn't. He just said "oh my God... What the fuck..." Another dude brought it up but never heard of him. He had already seen the video but was asking who he is, and I told him he's a propagandist for the right wing. He said "ahhh fuck em then."
Where did you download from?

Mastadon.
Edit: it was from a link someone posted on the mega thread.
I am enjoying this slo mo video.
Like someone else said, Kirk getting shot in the throat, in a school, possibly by a republican, while ranting about minorities, gang violence and trans people, is peak irony
"Because Charlie Kirk spent so much of his life advocating for gun violence, Kirk’s murder was both tragic and ironic. He was killed by the very thing he loved. It would be like if Donald Trump were child-raped to death."
- Steve Hofsetter
Yeah its wild - normally i click off of these type of videos, but i felt less than nothing for him but damn that's alot of blood
I laughed, and I fucking hate the fascists for being so vile that that was my reaction.
I got more of a cold sense of "you reap what you sow" justice. If you go around slapping people in the face don't be shocked if you get your ass kicked one day.
Hey just looked at his wikipedia page and whats funny to me is there is very little about his actual life. Its like hes a caricature and nothing more. It makes me think of animes where people are caught up with spirits and stop being human. In this case the spirit is the movement that does not care for his humanity.
He was such a hollow husk of a man that I'm surprised there was anything inside to leak out.
His Wikipedia should mention how he failed at the game of life. I've already significantly outlived him in years. And I'm not a pathetic worm propagandist. I beat Charlie Kuck at the game of life. We all did.
It's true! But I think that's what dark money does, it installs political figures who don't really have a human side.
My only empathy is for the students at the school who probably thought they were about to be victims as well, thinking maybe they were about to experience a mass shooting. Kirk spewed vile hatred non stop, said that gun deaths were needed for us to have our 2nd amendment right, so he did die from what he preached.
I feel for the students in Colorado who just hours after did become victim to a school shooting, the Democratic officials in Minnesota who the media have forgotten about after their assassination.
Does that make me a bad person? I don't really give a shit. There's one less toxic commentator/grifter out there saying demeaning shit about minorities and my trans homies, one less voice calling for their deaths. If the left had a version of Kirk that was assassinated, they'd be saying the exact fucking thing.
I worry about what the repercussions will be for the country.
I don't want anyone watching to have trauma symptoms, sadly they're going to, but even if they support him I don't want that for them.
But watching him about to open his big mouth and say more pro gun shit and then get picked off like a clay pigeon in a shooting gallery? 10/10.
I dunno, I mean his supporters deserve trauma. Id feel for the Lefty's that went to just heckle or observe hate. But I'm probably in the top 1% of the darkest (not skin tone) people on the left. Personally I wouldn't mind being there to witness it, but I've seen a lot in Iraq. One shitty guy doesn't phase me at all, so maybe my opinion on this is a little skewed.
I hate seeing a young vulnerable person who has been manipulated into believing weaponized disinformation like from Charlie, who probably with some more time in higher education and living away from their bumfuck home town would acquire a more discerning political outlook,suffer this trauma.
I dont feel bad for them. We have over sheltered the country. We dont want people see videos of what happens. We dont show them the photos. "Its too graphic". Good. See it. Look at the reality. Maybe if more peoole did that we would have less wars, less rhetoric. Its all a big game because we dont confront peoole with the dark reality.
I feel a little bad for his kids, having no dad probably sucks. Well, not nearly as much as having Kirk as a dad, but still. I feel the same way for Barron Trump and Elon's kids, not much they can do to escape attention and indoctrination. Still doesn't mean that he was a good man just for having a family, regardless of what CNN and the NYT say.
As far as I'm concerned it was the same as watching footage of a Nazi's neck exploding.
And I'll always take joy in that.
The only good fascist is a dead fascist.
Him making an incredibly racist statement only for the universe's immediate rebuttal to be "we're taking your blood back" was pretty funny.
I'm mostly just tired of the same people that might take time off to go piss on Biden's grave having the gall to demand that we be respectful of this chud.
These are people who hung effigies of Obama being lynched outside their homes.
What's to feel bad about? He said himself victims of gun violence were acceptable.
What's to feel bad about? Briefly, that people are so fucked up in general. Kirk just happened to be a lot worse than most. But he's far from alone in his awful beliefs. Look around the Internet and you will see people giddy and you will see people declaring civil war on the left. We're fucked and that's nothing to celebrate. I'm glad he's dead but it's likely that every day will be worse than the last in America until there's no America anymore.
As not one of those people. I would never expect anyone to show him respect, but to want to watch anyone die for pleasure is insane. Frankly.
charlie kirk sucked ass. but i don't see his extremely public assassination having many positive consequences
First positive influence: his psychotic ass is gone. Second: Republicans finally have a hint of fear, knowing there are actual consequences.
They bet on there being no credible resistance.
The trouble is often fear is displayed as anger. And when people are experiencing strong emotions, fear included, they behave less predictably and make more impulsive decisions.
I'm worried about the next left demonstration and hope that everyone stays safe.
Second: Republicans finally have a hint of fear, knowing there are actual consequences.
you're assuming they weren't the ones to do it to create a false-flag event to consolidate magats.
the only fear I have yet to see is from the Democrats. the Republicans are using this as an opportunity to further their agendas.
mark my words. there will be a national political registry before there's a national gun registry.
Republicans finally have a hint of fear
Yup. Consequences motherfuckers.
My friend had a great quote while we were talking about farmers suffering under Trump's policies.
"Did these fuckheads think owning the libs was going to be free?"
Whatever happens next was going to happen eventually anyway. Don't let anyone shift the blame.
