    If this is about Charlie Kirk, Kirk was not a journalist. He was a racist piece of shit propagandist who spread hatespeech and neo-nazi ideas. Yeah I think calling Charlie Kirk a journalist is nazi apologia because you were deliberately muddying who Charlie Kirk was. A hatespeech propagandist who frequently parroted neo-nazi talking points. And you know what they say, if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck its probably safe to assume its a duck.

      Was about a literal nazi propagandist from nazi germany. We did indeed interpret Satans comments as muddying the waters

      Great, and the next time the right is in power they’ll remember this and categorize everybody on the left as not-a-journalist but rather a propagandist working on behalf of foreign powers to undermine America by evangelizing a bankrupt ideology that destroys societies. I’m so excited for the future, you guys.

        They already do that. Your worst case scenario is their starting point.

        We’re talking - specifically- about the right in the US. The bug fuck batshit insane racist sexist homophobic fascist party of grifters and thieves who are literally causing harm and death right now. Don’t try and devil’s advocate them

        Quick question. But first, lets recap:

        • Anti-capitalism is terrorism
        • Anti-fascism is terrorism
        • Anti-americanism is terrorism
        • Anti-christianity is terrorism

        Don’t you think this is already the plan?

        I think its the plan, I just think it hasn’t been fully put into effect yet.

        Dude we are already there. They did not and do not need an excuse. Look at the way they talk about the No Kings protests, despite the protesters doing everything to show they are non-violent and are not anti-american. They are deploying the military to crush them and painting them as “paid antifa protesters.”

        They already did, and the Zionists who they aspire to regularly target enemy journalists. The damage demonizing protestors and funding police has already been fucking done. Your liberal virtue signalling will not save lives. Killing Nazis just might.

        OK. Point me to some actual journalism from Kirk.

        Edit: still waiting…

        It’s worth considering that this could happen anyways.

        It’s not like putin came to power after a period of rule by the opposition (Yeltsin set him up as president).

        I assumed it could be because someone else commented about it and as far as I saw you didnt add context for what it was about. Sorry for the assumption.

        And to clarify, I do not think we should shoot or hang people like Charlie Kirk. However I do not feel bad for his death, and I did and do celebrate it. I will celebrate the deaths of people who wish harm for me and my friends and family, even if I do not think it is the most constructive or effective means for addressing the problems.

        Edit: I am actually going to adjust my clarificarion. I have mixed feelings about whether killing Charlie Kirk was justified. Under normal conditions, no. However we do not live under normal conditions anymore, this is ramping up to a civil war and I think we need to realize in certain areas we will need to do unsavory and things we viewed as wrong in order to protect ourselves, our loved ones, and to ensure a safe, free, and tolerant society. Does that mean I think the killing of Charlie Kirk was the right decision (assuming hypothetically it was a leftist with good intentions, and not just a groyper trying to get a false flag)? I dont know. But I am happy he is dead.

        I will end this with John Brown did nothing wrong (except the Pattowatomie Massacre).
