So many things I want to say, but won't because it'll probably get me banned....

So...

Thoughts and prayers!

[–] Seleni@lemmy.world 63 points 2 days ago (1 children)

They say you should only say good things about the dead.

Charlie Kirk is dead. Good.

Spewing horrific quantities of shit better left inside, traumatizing and radicalizing all young people that witness it?

I'm not calling for violence, but I would be so very pleased if we have nazi hunters again.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 33 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I think it's time to stop being so nice about it. People like him encourage cruelty and violence. I think it's time to stop treating them with empathy until they learn his to be civil human beings again.

[–] CaptPretentious@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I am. It's a reality of humanity. Most of us would like peace myself included. But to have peace, you have to be able to defend it. You can't be passive. It's kind of the idea of why you would have military, people ready and willing to fight to preserve the peace from those that end peace.

My great-grandfather wasn't exactly sad when he helped take down the Nazis. And I'm not going to be particularly sad when taking down a neo-Nazi. Sorry, they like to be called maga now.

We should honor him by not letting gun violence emotionally hijack the conversation.

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 14 points 2 days ago

The most respectful thing we can do is honor his beliefs:

"I think it's worth it. I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights." - Charlie Kirk

""I think empathy is a made up New Age term that has done a lot of damage" - Charlie Kirk

"Guns save lives" - Charlie Kirk

My coworker showed me the video. Then proceeded to tell me that he's been watching Kirk since last year and that it was probably a "transgender" that shot him. My coworker is Mexican. Also several other coworkers stated that they enjoy the things that he used to say.

[–] Vupware@lemmy.zip 39 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yea this made the closet conservatives come out from under the woodwork. Instagram was awash with people posting his family photos that are otherwise outwardly apolitical.

Should I post pictures of Nazis with animals?

Saw the video and ya... he won't be walking that one off. Medical science has come a long way but that's testing the limits.

I can't find video since everything is flooded with news people talking about it and won't show the actual footage. Got a link?

Edit: found one on mastodon. It's extremely NSFL. Do not watch if even remotely squeamish. I fucking hate that motherfucker and it was still pretty tough to watch. Very lights-out.

I feel like it’s cruel but this should be posterized and waved around his funeral. Maybe the people dressed in black will understand the concept of empathy then, violence really does seem to be the only language a fascist understands.

[–] bender223@lemmy.today 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

These ass hats tried to make empathy a bad word to give license for them to be evil. But they will lash out and cry when other ppl don't show them empathy. Fuck 'em.

I’m all for gun ownership but you can do better than just accepting mass numbers of deaths.

Make gun education a serious part of gun ownership. Guns shouldn’t be easily accessible to anyone regardless of training.

[–] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 19 points 2 days ago (5 children)

Also American society needs serious unfucking at all levels. Conservatives are bonkers but the "gun deaths are due to mental health issues" argument has merit; healthy and well-adjusted people don't grab the closest murder weapon and kill random people. Guns are a scapegoat so that politicians can avoid addressing the real issues.

Is it odd that I am kinda stuck on the fact he was not shot in the head? Like all those years of people making his head huge and face small when they missed out on the guys neck.

Aged better than Charlie Kirk.

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago

Possibly through the spinal cord. I've watched it a few times and its hard to tell. This whole thing has made me emotionless when these horrible people get their karma. I still feel for people that are clearly victims but find it impossible to see someone like him as a victim.

Get wrecked white supremacist fascist, advocate for gun violence and against empathy means you shouldn't be surprised when someone takes you up on that bet.

"I told you once that I was searching for the nature of evil. I think I’ve come close to defining it: a lack of empathy. It’s the one characteristic that connects all the defendants. A genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow man. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy." - G M Gilbert
