      I disagree with the first part, lol. What were the odds he would’ve done a 180 and started preaching love, wisdom, cooperation and virtue? That he would at any point become something besides a blight on the world? Or that he would simply shut his mouth? This is a net positive, not unlike the killing of a mass rapist being a net positive, and the only ones who could suffer momentarily are his children (but maybe in time they’ll understand the same way the kids of this fictional rapist would/should also understand).

        It’s a play on words of something Charlie Kirk themselves actually said.

        They quite famously justified gun violence as “unfortunate but necessary”.

        CK can rest in piss and get worms in his bones. The man offered the world not one iota of value. The world’s better for his passing and was made continuously worse through his existence.

          The only problem is that he will be made a martyr by the American diabolical cult that upholds villainy and immorality as virtue, and the world will continue accelerating into shit. Meh. 😔

            I mean you have two options.

            Allow them to continue or whatever the fuck this is going to be.

            He was doing real damage every day he was alive.

              I’m in two minds about it, and I certainly agree with you regarding the damage he was doing, but I’m afraid of what the powers that be will do with this “sacrifice” and how further down the path of nonsense they will take those with double digit IQs…

                Yeah but you can’t make decisions based on what you are afraid will happen, which is rooted in uncertainty.

                We can be quite certain if the real negative consequences this life has, and continued to have, and which was growing in the scale of their ability to cause violence.

                  I can say with certainty his death will be used as casus belli against those who still fight against immoral American mainstream “culture”, though. What is done is done and I’m happy there’s one fewer voice of hatred and inhumanity out there but the enemies of humanity might do more with his death than his life, that’s all I’m saying. 😔

                    Just appreciate the counter argument that your other option was to allow him to continue to spew hate and violence against anyone who didn’t submit to his white supremacy.

                    The right time to engage in the kind of political violence that can stop these movements was decades ago. The second best time is right now. You will not stop fascism with rhetoricc, or a change in laws. It’s never, ever happened.

                    I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. “So do I,” said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.

                    Do you think your grandparents or great grandparents were appreciative of the fact that they, their siblings and their friends had to go sacrifice their lives to stop fascism in Europe? No. But they were not given that choice. It was either fight or be crushed.

                    And that is the choice were left to by the slovens on both sides who allowed this creeping ideology to take root.

        I say it’s actually better than the rapist, because Charlie Kirk’s influence was far wider, and his words could and did lead to a far larger and more widespread volume of suffering.
