I’m not sorry. Seeing someone who spread so much hate and bigotry and weaponized disinformation get his clock cleaned was absolutely fine by me.

I have empathy for lots of people even if we don’t always agree, but not for people like Charlie Kirk.

    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.

        It could also be the moment of awakening, too.one thing I can guarantee, is that they’ve been thinking about ethics for the last 33 hrs non-stop.
