I'm so confused. Shouldn't he feel safe with security and being a "good guy" with a gun to protect himself?
Ooh here's another one who's right to be scared, and whose death I would struggle to shed a tear over.
We're not supposed to celebrate death or violence.
In unrelated matters, I just want to say that I'm really enjoying Lemmy's m/music community today, y'all should check them out!
Edit: ITT: a lot of people who haven't checked out https://lemmy.world/c/music?dataType=Post&sort=New
Hey man, nice shot!
Such a banger song.
I will always celebrate the death of terrorists that target civilians. Stochastic terrorism is still terrorism.
We're not supposed to celebrate death or violence
It depends on what instance you're on. We don't have ads and corporate masters here. As long as you don't encourage someone to go do something like that I think you'll be fine. Depends on the instance admins tho.
"I'm all for violence and hate, just not towards me. I want to spread hate and fear, as I'm a soldier for my beliefs. But not when there's a slightest chance of risk for my own safety involved. I only want to harm others while being safe myself."
It seems that they have definitely started to show themselves so much more that TACO is in office now.
I suppose people are starting to notice.
"But I thought only Republicans had guns. I only want to target defenseless minorities. I'm not willing to die for this cause!"
I would laugh so hard if the person responsible turned out to be a republican... again.
It would be extra great if the shooter was a pardoned Jan. 6 insurrectionist.
It would be nice extra great if he never got caught, and all MAGAs would all have to worry that there's a sniper out there waiting to kill them at any moment.
I've thought about this a lot since Luigi. The power of these alt reality movements is derived from their mouthpieces. Without their army of apologists, every ridiculous lie sounds as stupid as it is and always was.
Being a professional shill/propagandist for these people should be one of the most dangerous jobs in the world, and I'm surprised that's not the case. So, smart move on Ben. He should hang up the towel, and find a real job.
Ben Shapiro killed Charlie Kirk. After all, Ben Shapiro was the rising star replacement for Rush Limbaugh until Charlie Kirk came along and passed him up, and became the big MAGA Media darling.
Now Shapiro is back on top. He stands to benefit the most by Kirk's death. Obviously, Shapiro did it.
Hey maybe there's a guy with a hit list going around killing people. Or was that the Minnesota shooter that was out to kill a bunch of democrats?
It proves that guns will make them shut up.
Come on, exercise your free speech.
No no, Ben, god chose you, he'll just gently blow any bullets out of the way, right? Because god exists? And prayer works? He created the universe and shit?
I want to punch this weasel-faced rat just on principle, but especially because of his overt religiosity, and therefore dangerous insanity.
Why isn't religion a mental illness?
Coward
Come on Ben, go stand up on a stage somewhere in public, go speak your mind since you love doing that. Don't be a fucking coward, go put yourself out there and keep spewing your hateful drivel.
I'm European and it is the fist time I realize these are 2 different persons. I always mixed them up to now.
It should be a lot easier going forward
One has a river of blood on his neck. The other keeps his in Palestine
Good. Now they're learning the part of the book where Frankenstein fears what he created.
Shapiro should keep going out and talking, he just needs to bring his wife with him. That way, if something happens, she can just soak up all the blood with her desiccated vagina.
Snowflake
One major difference between the Kirk shooting and that of the Minnesota legislators is that when Hortman was murdered, the rest of the Democrats still showed up to work.
Why? Because what Shapiro et al do isn't something they truly believe in, it's all a grift to make money. As soon as selling hate becomes too dangerous, they'll just pivot to selling crypto or some shit.
I've been saying they should feel fear. Look what makes them fearful.
Guns really do keep bad people away! 😮
The funny thing is that they're both such generic rightwing grifters that I can't keep those two separate in my head. When I first heard about Kirk getting capped my first thought was "Was this a anti-semetic attack?" quickly followed by "Wait, am I thinking of the right guy?" (spoiler alert, I wasn't)
I guess since conservative podcasters have flooded the market, there’s more to choose from. Let’s all hold hands and pray to St. Luigi.
Did he gish gallop into the sunset?
lol what a pussy
Aww.
The fascist group hug rally got cancelled because of gun violence??
Lol pussy
It’s ok when we get shot, but oh no when it’s one of them…
Shame, i know there were a lot of people looking forward to his event being cut short too!
Aww, they could've capped two bigots in one day. Shame.
Hahaha coward chickenshit. All they need is a good guy with a gun, right? 😂
Pussy
Awww, why?
Weak bitch
