The assassination of Charlie Kirk threatens to embolden the far right and provide Donald Trump with a pretext for crushing dissent. Escalating political violence corrodes democratic norms and poses a unique threat to the Left.
It’s not Charlie’s fault that there are tens or hundreds of millions of Americans that, like you, endorse political violence and are eager to be told that it’s okay
He’s actually for political violence based on his own arguments. So you can say he contributed to it being okay.
He didn’t create the audience, he merely exploited it for personal gain.
And that makes him better, How?
You’re making him into some kind of whipping boy so that you don’t have to face the reality of the situation. Nothing has been accomplished and so much damage has been done to us all.
He was a whipping boy. He was a huge reason why Trump was elected. Something was accomplished yesterday, there’s on less fascist in this world, and MAGAs bullhorn was just silenced.
How can they not see this. Whatever “good” they think is accomplished because there is “one less fascist in the world” is entirely overwhelmed by the negative consequences. But they don’t give a fuck. I think they are as traumatized as I am and they must cling to their bloodlust or they will experience emotions that they don’t want to have.

That assassination may have been a turning point for some moderates towards the extreme :/
It’s basically like trying to kill the Hydra.

Just goes to show you how stupid and easy it is to manipulate the American population.
