Genuinely, WWJD is an interesting thought exercise here.
Without really digging for it, my first guess would be "repent and sin no more." I imagine less turning oneself in to the cops, and more directly asking forgiveness of the ones you wronged. There wouldn't really be a "setting it right" for such an act though.
That's where I can't imagine where things would really go. The feebs would definitely involve themselves anyway, even on the razor slim chance the aggrieved did not.
As much as we very much disagreed (to put it gently) with this hateful brainwashing crusade and are maybe glad to be rid of a prominent source of it, it is still not the way of Christ to be another's executioner.
I'll be honest, I'm struggling here. On one hand Kirk was causing a lot of harm through pursuading the worst sides of people under the guise of "logic." His individual capacity for further harm has been neutralized ("martyr" narrative aside), and that feels like a positive.
But in the end, I don't want to celebrate murder. I wish it never came to this and people had enough sense to have just ignored him entirely. The fact that so many people find this ideology appealing and we've gotten this deep demonstrates a moral decay of our civilization, and in the end he was slain by the monster he and his ilk helped to unleash on us all.
Heh sorry for the rant as a reply. Just thinking out loud I guess.
