Poilievre said Kirk was killed "because he expressed a contrary point of view."

Kirk’s last words and thoughts were not exactly racist but damn near close to it, mass shootings or gang violence. His second last thoughts where Transphobic β€œthere are two many mass shootings by Trans people to count in his country.” Yes I did use two properly there, there have been two mass shootings down by Trans people in the US.

I seem to recall him being fine with it when Trudeau was getting rocks thrown at him. I seem to recall him saying it was an overreaction when Freeland complained she was being followed around.

Am I remembering wrong?

[–] npcknapsack@lemmy.ca 37 points 1 day ago (1 children)

(I don't want any of our politicians to feel worried about political violence, but I also don't remember his open condemnation of any of it when Singh was threatened.)

[–] DriftingLynx@lemmy.ca 10 points 11 hours ago

Safety for me and not for thee. Fits the Conservative brand well.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 23 points 1 day ago

I remember when Diagolon assholes threatened to rape his wife because she was an immigrant.

[–] SamuelRJankis@sh.itjust.works 16 points 22 hours ago

You forgot we're like 5 years into political effigys and I'm completely sincere in saying I've never seen a single Conservative (that includes American side) as a target for those.

Stringing up Trudeau pinata by its neck was 'just in fun,' says Alberta bar owner

I seem to recall him meeting with convoy leaders during that whole shitstorm. Way to β€œde-escalate”.

[–] Prezhotnuts@lemmy.ca 54 points 1 day ago

Worried that the flames he helped to stoke might come back on him.

[–] theacharnian@lemmy.ca 45 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So you're going to tone down the hateful rhetoric and try to depolarize the situation? Right? Right?

[–] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

"Depolarize the Situation" is a three word slogan, but too many syllables to be adopted by Poilievre.

[–] theacharnian@lemmy.ca 20 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Drop the drama, calm the clash, ease the beef.

[–] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 5 points 23 hours ago

Now we're talkin'.

Stop fucking around today and you’re much less likely to find out tomorrow.

I want this on a t-shirt.

Nazis are always wussie little crybabies. The things I do and say put me in danger waaa waaaa

[–] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 26 points 1 day ago

Spread hate, you attract hate.

The same Pierre Poilievre who was just glad-handing with Rob Primo? The same Rob Primo who's been hanging out with Jeremy MacKenzie? The same Jeremy MacKenzie who publicly threatened to rape Anaida Poilievre? That Pierre Poilievre?

[–] Canconda@lemmy.ca 23 points 1 day ago

You tellin me the man that threw his own MP under the bus and wasted 2M taxpayer dollars to avoid getting a real job is more worried about himself than his fellow Canadians??? Colour me shocked.

[–] Montreal_Metro@lemmy.ca 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Any trucks with β€œFuck Poillievre!” stickers?

[–] DriftingLynx@lemmy.ca 4 points 11 hours ago

No because the left is actually populated by people with empathy and disdain for violence, despite what PP likes to espouse in public.

[–] DriftingLynx@lemmy.ca 17 points 11 hours ago

Stop fanning the flames of violence if you can't take the heat. Fuck tard πŸ™„

[–] Bebopalouie@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Creepy little pp needs to recede into the hedge like Homer and never come back out again.

[–] dubyakay@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

The hedge being the US. May he find peace and security there. From whatever he imagines going down here.

[–] AlexLost@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago

Don't worry, you need to be relevant to be a target.

[–] GrindingGears@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 day ago

Nobody is going to shoot you PP, you aren't that important. Nobody cares about a loser, nor someone that needs to run multiple times in multiple campaigns before getting a seat where you are still somehow the loser. If someone is going to plan an assassination and give up their life for it in one way or another, it's probably going to be for someone or something far more important than you and your memes or one liners.

People are speaking out about how it's sick that there's any critical thinking or negative feelings against this fellow in the US that got shot, when what's actually even sicker is people then trying to ride the coatails of such an event to bring more attention upon themselves.

[–] brax@sh.itjust.works 10 points 11 hours ago

Sounds like he's enjoying the consequences of his actions

[–] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 day ago

Is he worried some nut-job is going to think he's not right-wing enough?

[–] orioler25@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 day ago

His last two statements were transhpbobic and racist. "Gang violence" means racialized violence, it's imagined as a form of violence exclusive to undesirable non-white groups.

PP deserves to feel scared for the very same reason. Bolt-action rifles are legal in Canada and he's made is career about targeting vulnerable groups and pandering to chuds. Now he knows that the chuds could just kill him because of memes and everyone loved seeing that Nazi eat it.

[–] threeonefour@piefed.ca 8 points 1 day ago

Axe the Violence!

He should worry that he's still a weenie.

[–] Auli@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

Wonder how many where done buy cis men?

[–] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 hours ago

Where is this "rising tide of violence" that he's so afraid of? In Canada? Since when? This fuckin' idiot doesn't even know what country he's in.

He already has some RCMP watching over him, I think he wants people with a different title watching him. Then he wants those officers to watch over good families butt.

"How can I make this all about me so that my name stays in the news?"

@Reannlegge
Abate the Hate and you will be fine.

[–] DriftingLynx@lemmy.ca 1 points 11 hours ago

You might as well tell a rabbit not to eat it's own πŸ’©, PP has nothing but hate to sell.
