Posting screenshots of his tweets is disrespectful to his memory.
/s
You can ditch the /s, this is unironically true.
Edit:
I meant it like Kirk himself disrespected his memory by posting those tweets.
I now realize that the /s was needed!
not really. That is what he spent his life working on.
What do you mean?

Quoting a person’s actual words they intentionally published to the whole world is disrespectful?
One of those guys is a living legend.
And one of them is a dead fascist!
The best kind.
recently upgraded to one of the good ones
Funny how many posts I see of this guy being an utter cesspool but when I go on conservative media, I see literally ZERO examples of him saying anything they feel is worth praising. It’s almost as if everything out of his mouth was vitriolic garbage and they know it.
Almost as if one side posts only good things and the other only bad things
And, going by the comment you replied to, even the conservatives know that there aren’t any good things to post.
They think even this post is a good post.
This was kinda fine and imho contains a somewhat benevolent interpretation of christianity and conservatism: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJmcqjP8mhk
But yeah, there aren’t many of these.
The voters one on side operate purely on feelings and tribalism alone, not logic or reason
Someone should shoot this assho … oh, my bad.
No. He does not deserve to be mourned but that does not mean he deserved to be murdered.
Hey man, no need for such a full throated criticism of the departed…
Being an asshole is enough to deserve being murdered now?
It was less of a murder and more of a lesson on the 2nd Amendment in my opinion. But basically yes, if by “asshole” you mean being a hateful fucking nazi.
He was a weasely misanthropic little shit who gleefully poisoned the discourse in the name of theocratic white supremacy and helped usher in an administration that’s done nothing but hurt it’s constituents and alienate us from the global community.
Simply calling him an asshole undersells how vile of a person he was and the incredible damage he has caused.
That may be the case but whatever theocratic white-supremacist trump-supporter he was, I think advocating for the murder of a person because he advocated for the murder of a person (or at least implied that) doesn’t make one any better than him, if that makes sense.
People are talking about him having spread hatred (which he did) and are at the very same time spreading hatred about him. Quite ironic in a way…
Enlightened centrist horse shit.
“Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them.” - Karl Popper
“I do not imply that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion”. - Karl Popper, clarifying that statement you cited
One shouldn’t kill a communist that is simply voicing their opinion, one should however kill a second Stalin.
Welcome to Soviet America where you can get eliminated for simply having wrong beliefs.
I mean, it’s more about letting anyone have a gun. Your shooters are always mentally unwell, or actual children.
You should argue gun control with Kirk, the sign said to prove him wrong.
These MAGA scum are a direct threat to the US constitution. They are so weak willed that they follow people like this and actually enjoy being manipulated by them. The person that killed the asshole wasn’t even one of “us”, he was another MAGA that was mad because he thought this asshole wasn’t being a big enough threat to the Constitution.
MAGA is so hateful and crazy that they are killing themselves.
MAGA is a death cult in every meaning of the term, so much so that my perception of the vast diversity of different meanings of “death cult” keeps expanding quite against my desire to explore further expressions of it.
I see nothing wrong with shooting racist nazi fucks like that.
The issue is that if you think it’s justified to kill people on the basis of views that you (radically) disagree with, then that same justification could be used by them to justify killing you, right?
(Also, I think calling him a nazi doesn’t do the victims of actual nazis justice, the latter of whom certainly did more than verbally expressing a radical ideology; but this just on the side)
Dude was overtly racist, called for violence against ethnic groups, supported a literal genocide, among other things. He was doing the same shit the Nazis did in the beginning.
I hope Kirk knew that he was dying.
Likewise, but unfortunately I’m pretty sure based on the video that the sudden overpressure, then pressure loss, of blood, caused him to immediately black out and probably have no conscious experience after blaming gun violence on trans people and gangs.
as someone who has experienced sudden loss of blood pressure to the brain, you go grey then black very quickly. i was pumping my thighs to keep going (because i knew what was happening) and got an extra ten seconds of grey, don’t remember anything after that. so… maybe he did?
Everytime I read that last part I can help revel in the irony.
Except that I would greatly prefer that he were acutely aware of what happened, why, and who was responsible. If only he had lived until Saturday-ish
He knew, but not for long. I’m just sad her never knew it was a right-winger that did it
He should’ve lived longer. By a few hours.
sure, and FDR was responsible for millions of deaths too by entering ww2. If only he had rolled over for the Japanese and Nazis the world would have been a better place amirighf? /s
I’ve got nothing to say about the other guy, I’m just going to celebrate that Zelenskyy and Ukraine are still going strong!
This was on the aftermath of Zelenski visiting the US and they started arguing in front of the cameras. JD Vance accused Zelenski of not being grateful and of “haven’t saying thanks once”. Rubio couldn’t sink deeper into the couch and background.
Yeah, this is clearly parroting some party line. Doesn’t make it great though.
The only one who could sink deeper is Vance
Nobody mentions this, but he says thank you like RIGHT AWAY, well before couch fucker asks that question.
I’m starting to suspect that this Kirk fella wasn’t a nice guy.
What! How dare you … straight to the reeducation camps with you
He was the kind of delusional shit-fucker who thought there’s a heaven and that he was going there. If he happens to be right about the former then he’s definitely wrong about the latter.
Every time i see that i just think “hahahah someone didn’t get the unwarranted reacharound they were expecting”
Complete fucking narc meltdown
¯\(ツ)/¯ womp womp womp
and here’s my mom thinking we’re borderline celebrating his death because he’s Christian
You could try sending her these things
Maybe with a “oh, is this what Christians believe?”
I agree! It’s perfect! She needs to hear sas!
He was a pretty garbage Christian.
He was an attack dog, like almost all right wing internet pundits. This is what he was paid by the billionaires to do. If his taskmasters told him the new orders were to attack Zelenskyy, then by god that was what he did. I seriously doubt he ever had an original thought. Well, his racism was extra extra, I think that part he did for free.
1 thing connecting all these pundits, funded by an oligarch of russia to spread message of culture wars. the GOP and by extension the old guard DNc depends on culture wars to remain relevant.
You don’t need to include Russia, directing people to the .001% of foreign propaganda when our own billionaires control every news outlet and most social media we see serves to muddy the waters.
Yes, its funny that both Putin, Trump, and Warren Buffet want the same thing; a divided proletariat, fearful that minorities and foreigners want to take the scraps we’re left with.
