      > In messages seen by The Telegraph, Mr Abaraonye posted: “Charlie Kirk got shot, let’s f—ing go”

      “I think empathy is a made-up, new age term that — it does a lot of damage.”

      -Charlie Kirk

      I don’t particularly care for Charlie Kirk, I actually think he’s a prick and that based on his comment that some Deaths are worth it to protect the 2nd amendment, I think there’s an almost karmic justice to him being a victim of it, few people would disagree that rather an absolutionist than a school child, if things magically worked like that, which they obviously don’t…

      But real world talk rather than fantasy land, it’s another example of political violence which seems to be escalating and this will further inflame it, further lead to polarisation and lack of good faith debate, political trends in the USA have a nasty habit of spilling over here

      I never liked his views for the most part. Despite that, he made a name for himself by sitting down and debating with people. By using words to encourage his supporters and debate his detractors. That’s commendable and a way of reaching out

      To be murdered during a debate, while chatting with people is just so heinous

      Yeah right, keep telling yourselves you’re fighting fascism, rejoicing in the assassination of a man for his ideas. That’s what fighting fascism is

      We need to stop pretending that Charlie Kirk wasn’t a violent man, that he was killed for “having different opinions”, that he was just a polite guy that wanted to debate.

      Charlie Kirk advocated for violence. Not direct violence but systemic, civic violence. A violence that is far more sinister, yet far more normalised.

      When Charlie Kirk said that abortions are worse than the Holocaust, with the rest of his advocacy to outlaw abortion, he is advocating for a system that leaves pregnant women to die at home or on hospital beds, because their pregnancy when necrotic and a doctor is too scared to abort the dead fetus out of fear of prosecution. This is violence, this has already resulted in deaths, far more deaths than the one that was taken away yesterday.

      When Charlie Kirk advocates for wider access to guns, he advocates for a system that allows mass murders to happen in school daily. This is violence.

      When Charlie Kirk dismisses the brutality in Palesitne as a necessity of war and a factor of Israels self defense, he’s creating a culture where these deaths continue. This is violence.

      Charlie Kirk was more than just some online personality. The Trump Admin credits him to winning the vote. He’s flown private jets with Trump and Vance. He had more influence in the party than any online weirdo could. That’s why Trump flew the flag half-mast whilst he had nothing to say about the two democrat law makers assassinated in their homes earlier this year. Kirk defended Pelosis’ attacker.

      Kirk was part of an admin that had two nazi salutes thrown at inauguration. Charlie Kirk was responsible for helping an admin that black bags legal citizens to send them off to foreign death camps win. He obfuscated this black bagging by calling them illegal, when they’re verifiably not. That is systemic violence.

      Charlie Kirk was a violent man. Violent thoughts lead to violent words which lead to violent actions. A violent man, that promoted violence, was killed by violence.

      E: Goebbels only shared his opinion too. These opinions formed into systemic oppression, systemic violence. Stop deflecting from the violence this man was responsible for.

      Guys, a 21 year old we don’t know said something on their private Instagram account. What are we going to do about it?

      What an absolute toilet a large part of the left has become. Throwing around the word Nazi and fascist at anyone who disagrees with them while applauding political assassination.

      When Clinton famously spoke of the deplorables, could she have known how prevalent they were on both sides.

      The reaction is so mental, were I not so averse to tin hat talk, I’d question if it’s really organic.

      No one is obliged to mourn him? Last I checked, it wasn’t illegal to celebrate a death.

      So what’s the issue here? Other than its morally incorrect?

      I don’t like celebrating any death, I think its distasteful, but its also not newsworthy. It also shouldn’t be “fired from job” worthy, or “kicked out of uni” worthy, or “beaten up” worthy. It should be a tut and an eye roll and the world should move on.
