I will not allow any comments here praising or glorifying Charlie Kirk’s death. If you do so, it is clear that you did not read my piece.
Heaven forbid.
Sorry Erin, I love you gal, but it’s a good thing when evil people die and I won’t be ascribing to any polite fiction that things are otherwise.
I’m still really conflicted about this situation…
Yes it’s good that his influence in this world is gone but it sucks that it had to be through his death. Also the assassination and the praise for it only fules the fire for the opposite party and goes quite hard against democracy even if it’s good that he’s gone…
Yet I can 100% understand the need to reach for a gun when your own freedom (and by proxy your entire life) is on the line.
I believe the world is better without this man.
I wish he hadn’t been shot. Empathy (and self preservation) make me think of the similar and likely situation of a trans person being murdered because of their perceived ideology.
I don’t want to live in a place where people are killed for their beliefs.
Morality is not so straightforward. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance
I’m aware of the paradox, and that it wasn’t high caliber ideas in the 2nd world war that defeated Nazis, but rather bullets.
Regardless of the sentiments going around, the US is not currently at war with itself. I would rather not get to that point if it can be helped. Call me naive, but I think civil war can still be avoided.There are armed masked thugs on the street disappearing people with no rule of law. What is that called if not a war?
Fascist tyranny, but I wouldn’t consider it war.
No one decent is.
