I can’t believe he was only 31. Like he didn’t seem that young at all to me

In the end, he did get one vaccine shot.
The anti-life one.
More people like him should get their shots. Hey, it’s a matter of public health!

Stupid fuckers on Australian news are going with the ‘conservative activist’ shit.
Nazi pig got put down like the animal he was. Activism is for the oppressed against their oppressors.

A reputable news source, though, or NewsCorpse/Sky/Ch 9?
I checked the ABC News website, and they’re calling him “MAGA Influencer”, which I’ll accept.

Nooo, we need more respectability politics, surely if we kowtow to fascist harder they will see the error of their ways.

“Some gun deaths are worth in order to have the second amendment”
I hope he had couple minutes to reflect on this before he died.

So we’re just practicing what Charlie preached by not giving a single fuck that he died by a shooting.

Oh hell yeah. I’m cracking open a bottle of wine for celebration. I could get used to more of this

I’ve been saving a small bottle of bubbly for something, not sure what. This is the perfect occasion. Cheers, friend!

I find no joy from anyone’s death, but in some deaths I do find amusement.

Political violence is of course bad… but as soon as you call for it, especially indirectly, you deserve whatever comes to you. Stochastic terrorism is still terrorism, and there’s not a lot more American than the fact we don’t negotiate with terrorists.

What? The US negotiates with terrorists all the time
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world 2 hours ago
You seem to misunderstand. We don’t negotiate. We supply them because they’re killing people we want killed, or we blow them up.
theneverfox@pawb.social 6 hours ago
Yeah, the victim literally called for it. He celebrated it against his enemies, I’m not all that tore up about it
Political violence is bad… But what no one seems to be saying is that it’s a symptom.
You can’t stop it. You can’t take all the guns. You can’t crack down on it.
It’s a sign of where we are as a country right now.

I mean, I wouldn’t say “don’t celebrate it” but just because someone else is a piece of shit isn’t a blank check for you* to be a piece of shit.
*Collective “you”

There's a difference between being an asshole and being an asshole while monetizing it and corrupting the next generation.
Even the CEO guy who got Luigi'd was not as bad as Charlie Kirk in my eyes, he just made evil decisions for profit
Charlie Kirk exported his evil. Taught kids how to be evil. To be all manner of phobic. To hate. He actively worked to make the world a worse place
Fuck him
WoodScientist@lemmy.world 9 hours ago
Exactly. I’ve been saying this all day, but we literally hanged people at Nuremberg for doing exactly what Kirk made his whole career doing. Kirk was guilty of incitement to genocide.

I don’t like the tone of that. If some dude peddling bullshit gets what he deserves, I don’t see the reason not to relish in it even a little. This guy has been an oppressive POS who’s rhetoric is celebrated by Neo Nazis. That’s like saying, “just cuz hitler died doesn’t mean you get to say mean things.”
Look, I know we all struggle to maintain morality against our emotions, but, sometimes, the reaction is perfectly valid.

I’m not celebrating his death, I’m celebrating the fact that he will no longer be calling for violence. Don’t see how that makes me the bad guy

I respect the dead the same way Hoots and Caelan Conrad do. I wonder if small face man from Toilet Paper USA will get an episode.

With you. We can’t sit here and make fun of him for thinking so poorly of empathy while refusing to show any empathy. He was a piece of trash and needed to be taken out like one, but I’m not going to throw a party over it. It’s a “you gotta do what you gotta do” situation.

I feel more similarly to when you hear about exotic game hunters getting killed by the endangered animals they were hunting.
This got seems like a huge piece of crap, but I don’t take joy in this. But after all I’ve read he’s said today, yeah, not surprised at all.
I worry this is the start of something bigger though that will be terrible for everyone.

Having empathy is having the ability to see someone’s emotions and understand things from their point of view. Calling someone out for being am unpathetic POS doesn’t preclude you from being empathetic. Empathy doesn’t mean you have to abide evil.
