Funny events in anti-woke world

Its definitely worth keeping that quote in mind as one of history's little ironies. But I'd caution the left and the center to gloat about this. Its not really funny if you've seen the footage, and the poor taste can be weaponized against the left and center. Most of all its also possible Maga can use this to justify cracking down on the opposition, or distract from the unsurprising ''reveal'' that the coup doing rapist and owner of that sex island were really tight with each other.

Nothing of value was lost. The cruel and bitter irony though.

Good for Charlie. It's becoming rarer and rarer to see political peeps actually practice what they preach.

I wouldn’t have come close to guessing it was Utah.

So who's less respectable? The people on the left cheering this on or the vultures on the right who insists that this murder means we should all just let Trump get away with his crimes?

Its the vultures of course. Even the deaths among their own rank are exploited to push through their vile agenda.

Yeah, because they weren't going to let him get away with it anyway, right?!

Oh well, back to cheering.

I don't think him getting killed is good in any sense. Ultimately he was just a dumb kid who got a kick out of harassing dumber kid. Him being dead will advance nothing while most likely spurring other dumb kid to try to "get even".

But, yeah, when you preach that its worth it to get a few death every year just so people can own gun, yikes, you really can't complain if that's how you go. Plus, iirc, he was one of the one who pushed the Epstein stuff until Trump said it was no big deal, at which people he also said it wasn't worth discussing anymore. Putting politic before people life is bound to breed an atmosphere where stuff like that happens.

I just can't imagine how bad the GOP will push the counter push for this, I wouldn't be surprised if they claim that all teh dem are trying to kill them and they need to kill them all before they kill them.

Conspiracy rabbit holes going berserk right now. Grabbing snacks.

I can almost hear the footsteps of a certain forumite storming up to condemn all of us for celebrating the death of a human being. This person will not have demonstrated the same decorum for the death of George Floyd.

He wasn't just a dumb kid, he was a fascist hate preacher that made millions off of spreading racism and bigotry.

It doesn't matter. I said it as a throwaway to illustrate just how slapdash you'd been with numbers. But then you challenged it, so I had to explain the basic maths.



...so just an appeal to incredulity, then. They literally did have 3,600 severe, acute covid cases reported from 63 hospitals. That happened.



This entire paragraph is devoid of substance. Its just a recycled list of claims, about things that have already been addressed. You said "immunity doesn't wane for normal people". There is zero substantiation for that.



For goodness sake. Because the benefit against the cost is relatively minimal, so its not seen as necessary.

Phoenix, consider this. Thousands of vaccines aren't recommended for the general public. Almost all. Do you think that's because they're dangerous? Or don't work? No, obviously not: its because they're not seen as necessary.

0.0005% is the greater risk to that group of (mild) myocarditis from that vaccine as compared to the risk from the virus. Yes, that's stupidly negligible. Its outweighed many times over by severe covid.

Just to be clear, this is very similar to the logic the GOP uses for immigration

Eg There are supposedly 11 million undocumented immigrants in the US. If just ONE of them commits a crime, all 11 millions need to be removed the US

All other logic about the rest of the 11 million goes completely out the windows. All 11 million are to be punished for one person's crime

Phoenixmgs never cares about the comparison of myocarditis rates from vaccine to Covid. He will never compare that because all he cares about is comparing rates of vaccine to not having the vaccine. It does not matter if Covid is way more dangerous, all logic goes out the windows. Everyone needs to be punished because ALL medicines have side effects and shouldn't be used. And it gets even stupider when Phoenix suggests 'medicines' that have WAY more dangerous side effects that vaccines

Its like RFK targeting Tylenol in pregnancy. His assumption is that you take a medicine, and there will never be a chance of a side effect. The problem is that he blames Tylenol for Austism. They might remove Tylenol from all stores, and it not change the rates of Autism. They've done it with other cases before, and not one of them dropped the rates of Autism. They won't unban it. They will just pick a new imaginary target. Logic is out the window

It will never not be wild to me that in cases like this, you can literally watch this guy bleed out live on camera, seconds after the news breaks.

I honestly don't know enough about Charlie Kirk one way or the other to comment on him specifically, but he probably didn't deserve to have this clip floating around on the internet from now until the end of time.

The death of fascist propagandists should always be cause for celebration.
Now do Walsh and shapiro next.

Hey now, that sounds a lot like empathy what you're doing right here, Charlie would not approve.

Granted, he does specifically call out the "word" empathy... So without having the full clip I can't really tell if he was against empathy as a concept or just against the word...
Google search results aren't being helpful at the moment, for me.

I would not suggest anyone act like Charlie Kirk. Especially Charlie Kirk

You guys do you. It ain't gonna fix anything or undo the damage Kirk did. I personally am going to try to be everything Kirk wasn't

"Kid"? He was 31. He knew damn well what he was doing.

 

[BrawlMan]

No. He was a grown ass man, known for manipulation and wanting all transpeople to die, and thought less of other races, as well. Known for manipulation tactics for the sake of the grift and a quick buck.

Do not give this fucker any sympathy, because he deserves none.
