    This is just a lone wolf. Hell, there isn’t even remotely a pattern of violence aimed at Confederate pundits. There is not even stochastic terrorism aimed at Confederates.

    Who the fuck do these sister-fuckers even want vengeance on? We don’t even know who the shooter is yet and there are no prominent figures on the left who are doing the stochastic terrorism thing (unlike much of the right).

    For all we know, it’s Charlie’s jilted gay lover that shot him.

    So, if the shooter turns out to be some Nazi shitbag, these right wingers are going to war with them right? Of course not, because they don’t actually care about what happened to Kirk, and have no problem with violence happening (as evidenced by all the goddamn violence they are always doing). They just want to take advantage of an opportunity to do more violence against what they perceive as the other team. They’re sociopaths with no moral framework other than self-enrichment, self-aggrandizement, and ends justifying means.

      Best case scenario for planet Earth is if they find definitive proof that Kirk’s assassination was jointly ordered by Putin and Netanyahu.

    To be fair they respond to most things the left does with calls for violence. They want to commit violence over trans existence.

    Oh! Oh! You mean just like when Trump tweeted a picture of Chicago exploding and said “Chicago is about to learn why it is called the Department of War”?

    They’ve been getting more and more violent for 9 years, so I really don’t see how this is a change. They literally tried to overthrow the government.

    This the same far-right that couldn’t wear a face mask when 1,226,351 of us were dying of Covid? I am terrified, I tell you, terrified.

    WAR WAS HERE WHEN REPUBLICANS WERE PUTTING PEOPLE IN CAGES, SETTING BARBWIRE IN THE RIVERS, BURNING PROGRESSIVE BALLOT BOXES, FREEZING MEDICAID FUNDING.

    Did they forget all the right wing terrorism they’ve already been doing like attempting to kill Pelosi and nearly killing her husband among other things

      See: “unworthy victims” as discussed by Edward Herman and Noam Chomsky.

    these are the people who call for violence over corporate logos, M&Ms, and razor blades. they’re always calling for violence, and we’re always giving them the mic.

    I don’t get it, if he’s such a good guy, why are they sad that he’s in heaven with Jeebus? Don’t they believe that’s where the good people go?

      It doesn’t matter, they’re pushing this narrative in bad faith as an excuse to use violence against the people who they were planning to abuse anyway.

      It’s just my own conspiracy, with no evidence to back it up, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Kirk death was ordered by his own party.

    …these fucking people.

    Just shut up and go away already. Just move to Russia since you like the taste of dictator balls so much.
