I believe that the event featuring a debate between Josh Hammer and Dave Smith on Israel, held during the American Comeback Tour by Turning Point USA at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, was what led to Charlie Kirk’s assassination, because the debate made a mockery of the Israeli war.
They are useful idiots. Trump getting elected is probably the best thing that could have happened to destroy this fucked up system.
I’ve maintained this for a while now: as fucked up and as much of a piece of shit as Trump is, he’s very good at making readily apparent just how screwed up the entire system in the US is across the board and showing even the dumbest among us just how badly we need to change things. Yes his rabid moron followers think the status quo is a good thing because reasons, but the average layman is finally thinking about our country in a new light.
Every system depends on powerful people respecting its authority and the credible threat of the masses taking things into their own hands.
What we see now is the failure of the respect clause. It's just a matter of when the credible threat clause kicks in.
Theres no one on the left with a platform. Its like theyre not even trying.

They are spreading their hateful ideology much more than any left leaning idea so it’s a net negative
