When Paul Pelosi was attacked, the MAGAts jeered and made up stupid lies about the attacker being his gay lover. An 80+ year old man attacked in his own home by a right wing nutter and they thought it was funny.
Now they are crying like little babies because TinyFace got shot and sane people are pointing out that he was quite okay with people being shot to protect the second amendment.
Things that are violent:
-
Imprisoning and deporting innocent immigrants
-
State-sanctioned murder of black people via police
-
Legislating away the human rights of trans people
-
Forcing women to give birth against their will
The real illiberal, fundamentalist, totalitarian terrorists are on the right. I didn't shed a tear for Kirk and I wouldn't for PP or JK, either.
As and I cannot believe I am applauding what JK said in the tweet. JK is a horrible person through and through.
You donβt need to agree with what she said considering all of it is the maximum level of hypocrisy.
Nobody is a terrorist for killing Nazis. Charlie Kirk did this for thirteen years and even though he contributed to an incalculable amount of death, he was only stopped by a bullet.
Similarly, it's important to remember that despite millions of people pleading with JK, she is still single-handedly responsible for anti-trans and sexist laws in the UK. There are people who will die because she hasn't been stopped. JK's words are from a person who can and has contributed to genocide without ever getting their hands dirty. She knows that the state that tolerates fascism will always protect her.
I can't believe adults have watched the genocide in Gaza for two years and still think everyone has the privilege of decency in self-defense.
It wasn't even someone fucking oppositional to Kirk, it was another Nazi. Everything here is just so hollow dude ffs.
For JKR's next trick, I'd see to see her analysis on how those statements relate to her own behavior. Let me add my own item to the list:
If you act in direct contradiction to your own stated beliefs, you're a hypocrite.
It's weird. This is the first time I found myself agreeing with jkr, and I had to read it a few times to make sure I wasn't missing something.
They asked the UN for a minute of silence. WFT???
Okay Joana, tell us how to change your beliefs about trans women.
So this asshole gets literally what he deserves as he said school shootings where just a fact of life and he got killed in a school shooting it's just poetic justice. But two democrates get assassinated and they could care less. They are already blaming the left even though they don't know who shot Kirk, I mean Trumps attempted "assignation" was done by a republican.
They want to "take action" against "praising, rationalizing, or making light of the killing of" their people, but actively go out of their way to encourage praising, rationalizing, or making light of the killing of their opponents. There are several words and an entire psychological spectrum of study related to that sort of rationale.
Threten all you want, King Orange Paedo. You've just given me even less of a desire to visit your kingdom ever again than I had since you left your shit stains all over it.
Nope never going there again. Not spending any money there, a country where 77 million wanted this?? No way. The place is dead to me forever.
[Insert vista of America with tumbleweed blowing past]
I really wish pp would go out and find a real job already.
Joanne Rowling literally believes transgender people should be persecuted.
By her own fucking definition, she is a terrorist.
I hope the black mold leeches into her eyeballs.
What was that pp said about using anglo-saxon words ? and this lovely bullshit:
we need to put Canada first,β he said, pointing to what he called the Liberalsβ βwoke criminal justice agendaβ and βwoke agenda on spending.β
And reshitting a known vocal anti trans cunt while defending a known anti everything that isn't straight and white mouthpiece...
Pathetic.
And intended to incite.
Oh no, the guy who said he doesn't mind people getting shot, gets shot.
I'm just waiting for a video playing what he's said about gun control and political violence with the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme playing to the news coverage of the shooting after.
I don't condone this, but I'm not saying it isn't funny either.
Freedom of speech means freedom to rejoice when nazis die.
I'm not advocating murder but I'll laugh my fucking ass off when it happens to a piece of shit like Charlie Kirk.
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Edit: carotid Kirk*
The free speech tard minds at work here.
When one of theirs gets shot, we celebrate it, but when one of ours gets shot, we'll threaten anyone who isn't in mourning
At this point, I'm going to do whatever I want with no regard to what sorts of lists they are making or who they are tracking. I truly don't care. Show up at my house in the middle of the night and kidnap me. Go ahead. I'm so tired of this fucking place.
Charlie Kirk was a racist, fascist cunt rag, and now his shirt looks like one. Rot in piss bitch boy.
Charlie Kirk 1993-2025 Lived like a bitch, died like a bitch. Gurgle gurgle.
Illiberal?
STFU trash terf.
What exactly are they going to do about it? Be bigger assholes?
1000% tariffs! 1500% tariffs! 900% tariffs!
They need to import American style culture war so badly. They need us to be as polarized as the Americans so so so badly.
Literally every bullet point describes Republicans.
Lol, considering what I've said online about Vance or Trump I suppose I was never getting in the USA anymore regardless. No big loss.
I think people should be weary that while you might not voluntarily go to fascism. Fascism is coming to you.
Pierre was essentially licking his lips and pointing the finger at the other side before Kirk's body even hit the ground. And a group of people certainly seems to be falling for it like usual.
Lol they were calling it their Reichstag fire moment without a hint of irony.
The second in the list, isn't that what this two idiots are?
All of them, actually. Their entire political agenda is to deny the freedoms of selected groups of people.
"I want to underscore that foreigners who glorify violence and hatred are not welcome visitors to our country,β Landau said in a post on social media platform X."
So I guess we'll be deporting all the zionists then...right?
Are they going to start sanctioning individuals all over the world? They did it with the judge in the Bolsonaro case, and it caused problems in Brazil generally. I suppose if they do it to large numbers of people outside of the US, it would end up forcing countries to stop cooperating generally with the US.
Side note, by her own definitions, JKR is illiberal. She is a fundamentalist. She is a totalitarian. And she definitely believes that some of her "political" opponents, trans people, should be punished with violence and death. What a telling post.
And PP sucks as usual.
Pfff i've got multiple family members who died fighting fascists. I'm not gonna be their bitch now. My ancestors would urinate upon me
Guess we citizens will have to praise twice as hard.
Threaten me with what? You have more fascists to stop before I would consider visiting.
US can lick my arse
US can get fucked at this point. They became the thing they swore to destroy -> communist, totalitarian, fundamentalist and no longer "land of the free", but oppressed.
Lmao, the Communist United States. My guy, that's where fascism comes from. That's where they make it. It's always been a genocidal and extractivist state and capitalism emerged through its existence. Ffs their nazis are killed by other nazis because there's just that fucking many.
I guess I'm really gonna get it in the neck, then.
