    There'll be two responses from them on that 1. They were misheard. and/or 2. The were just kidding.

    I don't advocate shooting conservatives because that is highly inefficient. Conservatives despise "woke" regulations protecting their water and air, so they have removed those regulations. We can now legally exterminate millions of them without ever breaking a single law. I do advocate for that. Our enemy will kill us all if we don't stop them by force.

    And Facebook has empowered these people.

    I've seen cases they say simillar things like this on Facebook but encode it a bit, and Facebook never removes it.

    Happy we might get new social media laws here in Australia to finally be able to opt out of empowering these assholes

    But you damn well better not besmirch a dead Charlie Kirk.

    Hypocrites. Assholes. Literal morons.

    I lived in SE Idaho during the Obama years and I lost track of how many times adults openly talked about shooting or hanging the President. My daughters reported that children on the bus would also fantasize and openly talk about killing the President. This is not even surprising for me, which is sad.

    This is something Democrats and the DNC need to understand: Republicans are willing to kill for their beliefs.

    Until the DNC stops believing that Republicans will be "reasonable", Democrats will fail our country. It's only a matter of time until Trump has his version of the night of the long knives.

    People today are too far gone from the reality of our situation to understand this. Democracy is only meant to prevent killing one another en masse, as a means to say who would probably win in a war. That’s the very basis of its design.

    Think about it. Think of human history. And why is the cutoff exactly >50%? Strength means victory- if not a pyrrhic one.

    If you aren’t even willing to vote for your beliefs, you certainly aren’t willing to pickup a rifle. The other side still will.

    There’s an absolute metric ton of domestic and foreign born propaganda out there trying to convince US citizens to pick up a rifle instead of voting.

    yes. We need to get rid of the ability for media companies to influence our voters, and rich interests to buy our politicians. Until then we are cooked, and the rest of the world is cooked in direct proportion to how much America can mess with them to satisfy some rich persons special interest.

    Its hard to chart a path to get to a better result though. Clowns will say just voting will do it, but voting in a captured system will get you an outcome thats permitted by the rich, not one that will fundamentally change the game. Its like cows voting that they not be slaughtered. No one wants a revolution, but how do we get there without one? sit ins? voting in primaries? sternly worded letters? protests in protest zones? I dont have any answers either, but I feel like we have to think more creatively than just adopting what worked in the 60s or using revolution. We arent in the 60s anymore. Protests like those arent tolerated anymore, and the Dems are as bad as the repubs on repressing dissent.
