Hypocrisy is just a tool the right use. Calling them out on it is like point out that horses run faster than people only because they use all 4 legs. Well, duh.
It's only funny when I do it

The right is so absurdly hypocritical, it’s amazing how a human can get that low
The sad part is that there’s 77 million of them, and they own the government
bigmamoth@lemmy.world 6 months ago
I’m pretty sure it s because the call to violence rather than just saying we aren’t sad for him. Sadly some are so use to them that they don’t understand how problematic it s specially regarding the recent most discussed political assasination

“we don’t care” as in “we aren’t sad about it”

His wellbeing, emotional health and personal values are not being cared about.

This isn’t even almost a good comparison of what happened. Those people were murdered by the police.
And009@lemmynsfw.com 6 months ago
Aren’t the police part of the same problem? Don’t see them opposing fascism.
Whostosay@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
We’re talking about people’s reactions to widely covered murders.
In one instance, we have a guy who consistently spewed hate speech and stochastic terrorism that received exactly what he thought and convinced his followers others should receive.
In the other instances, we have two people who were subject to systemic racism and police brutality.
They are part of the problem, but it’s not the same problem and it never will be.
They are the enforcement wing of fascism.
If you have a way you plan on tying your comment in to convince me that Charlie Kirk was against fascism, please do share.

Not dead, but throw Paul Pelosi on that list.

George Floyd and Trayvon Martin were ordinary citizens living their lives, whose deaths were linked to (and probably caused by) oppression and racism. They never wanted national attention, certainly not for this.
Kirk was a propagandist whose speech contributed to the environment of political divisiveness, bigotry and intolerance. He was a public figure who thrived on the controversy caused by his hateful speech.
I can’t upvote this meme, it feels like false equivalence.
PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 6 months ago
I don’t think that that equivalence matters here, or that they don’t care that they’re being hypocritical.
We can still enjoy a meme about how they are hypocrites and how their stated beliefs crumble under the smallest pressure.
Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 6 months ago
I get what you’re saying, but they would be even more gleeful if it was some left wing icon that got an unplanned tracheostoma.
Imagine Gretta getting blasted. She’s not even a propagandists, but the closest I could think of off the cuff.
echolalia@lemmy.ml 6 months ago
Sure but she didn’t, she’s not in the meme I’m critiqueing. I wouldn’t have that complaint about that situation.
orrk@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Dude, they fucking fantasize about offing Greta, it’s not even a rare thing amung these people

This is how weak, fragile and cowardly the right … especially the far right are
They love to make fun of everyone and everything no matter how horrendous, ugly and ignorant it makes them look and sound
Yet they can’t stand and completely break down and cry whenever anyone stands up against them in the smallest ways.
pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
He’s not even worth a meme to me. I thought he was a reddit thumb and too small face years ago and that was it.

Unpopular opinion: Memes like this just further divide the two sides.
Obviously both sides have crazy, inhumane people on the fringes. But most normal people, regardless of political leaning, did not laugh about any of those three deaths.
Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 6 months ago
I get your point, but anyone offended/annoyed by this meme fits pretty squarely in the fascist camp. You can’t play nice with extremists; no matter how well meaning your intentions, or well thought out your arguments, they don’t care.
