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.

Well, I don't wish ill on anybody. But when it does happen to some people, schadenfreude can be enjoyable.

Rest in piss Charlie.

    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."

    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."
