Monthly reminder that Luigi Mangione is a centrist who argued "both parties" have good ideas

radfems 🤝 sexists literally cannot tell when a woman is joking

Conservatives have found SO LITTLE evidence that the shooter was in a leftist terror group That they brought on Karlyn "Hitler went to Heaven" "most camp deaths were typhus" Borysenko to "prove" that antifa are terrorists You don't hate Fox News enough.

The other hot take here: Most revolutionary socialist literature, written in favor of armed revolution in dirt-poor autocracies, is just not relevant to the rise of fascism in a rich, democratic USA

Pretty clear that running socialists within the Democratic Party has been the most successful electoral & rhetorical strategy of US socialists in 40 years

The people who do political killings are overwhelmingly impulsive and mentally ill. That's why America, a moderate and sensible country, provides universal mental healthcare, limits gun ownership, and cherishes the lives of civilians. Otherwise, we'd have dozens of killers!

Every single Democrat should've voted no on this garbage resolution. Beyond pretending that Kirk promoted "respect for his fellow Americans", it's one more step toward Christian nationalism.

"Liberals are more upset at [the state ending their free speech rights] than at [a random murder that they condemned]." Yeah? No shit?

Oh my god It's always this

For a week, rightists told me that "calling Trump a fascist is calling for his death". What does that make "every single leftist wants White genocide, every leftist you meet wants to kill you"?

I think it's Bad, Actually that conservative Christians think demons are controlling trans people

"Democrats can’t win at the BALLOT BOX, so they’re using BULLETS— it’s TREASON." If we define political parties by what the craziest people on their side do, like Fox News wants to, then the Republicans are neo-Nazi mass shooters and Christian Nationalist murderers.

The line that "college radicalized Kirk's shooter" is absolutely ridiculous Charlie Kirk went to college for JUST AS LONG as his shooter! Kirk lasted 1 semester, then dropped out. His shooter? Lasted 1 semester, then dropped out.

This is the power of the right wing media machine: A far-right kid nearly kills two children with explicit support from other far-right kids on TikTok? No major media coverage, no condolences from rightist pundits, no demands for TikTok to break this radicalization funnel.

While everyone has been focused on the Kirk assassination, ANOTHER NAZI did ANOTHER NAZI MASS SHOOTING. Desmond Holly, whose social media accounts are FULL of explicitly anti-Jewish, pro-mass-murder, and pro-Nazi content, critically injured 2 CHILDREN at Evergreen High School:

Ongoing thread of information we have about the shooter: 🧵 First, a common error: In 2020, a Tyler Robinson in St. George, UT donated $224.48 to Donald Trump. This was NOT the Tyler Robinson who shot Kirk. Same name, ~same zipcode, different person. The shooter never donated to ANY candidate.

The right-wing misinfo bubble is INSANE. Every single state & federal Dem has condemned the killing of Kirk. "In 2028, President AOC would give Kirk's killer the Medal of Freedom" got 20k likes! Are conservative pundits stupid? Or are conservatives just this gullible?

Don't buy this rightist lie: Robinson was NOT "indoctrinated" by college. He dropped out after 1 semester! "Yeah, after twenty weeks of English 101, I decided that murder was the only option."

I genuinely despise these fascists trying to sane-wash their views They wanna pretend that views like "let's repeal the Civil Rights Act and fight the International Jewish Cabal" are "just reasonable moderate views from 20 years ago" No it wasn't, you lying fascist goblins

they're transvestigating charlie kirk's killer LMFAO

You don't hate these authoritarian conservative freaks enough. Higgins wants to ban for life everyone who posts anything mocking Kirk's death. Meanwhile, here's what he posted right after a dude broke into Nancy Pelosi's house to try to beat her to death with a hammer:

For years, Charlie Kirk was a "release the Epstein Files" fanatic. Then Trump won. He forced Kirk to shut up, because Trump is in the files. Kirk was just murdered. Hours later, Senate Republicans spat on his grave. They want to protect pedophile child rapists.

There's a mass shooting every other day in this country. We can either enact gun safety laws, or we can see dead children and dead pundits on the news every week. Red flag laws. Child-safe storage mandate. Gun permits. Waiting periods. Minimum age 25. Stop the slaughter.

First photos of the suspected shooter released. This guy killed Kirk in a "Land of the Free, Home of the Brave" shirt.

Poster: "How dare you make this about trans people? So self-centered!" His replies: "We're going to make the trans pay."

When the shooter turns out to be a Nazi, do you think the right will apologize to the left for threatening to suppress us and kill us in retaliation?

Trump's ex-lover Laura Loomer: Trump should "shut down" the left, who are a "national security threat". They want to kill your political rights. Get organized.

The right wing is OPENLY plotting to use the killing of Charlie Kirk to end democracy in America. These freaks went from "Charlie was great, he loved debate!" to "we need to ban the Democratic Party" in 6 hours. They're authoritarian scum. Don't let them win.

A conservative pundit is killed? Flags at half mast. Two senior Minnesota Democrats are shot and killed in their homes? Flags at full mast. Trump skips the funeral. To golf. Never forget: Trump hates you and will not mourn your death. Never forgive these scum.

Drew never posted about the political assassination of Democratic legislators Melissa Hortman and John Hoffman by a fascist. When Charlie Kirk gets shot by an unknown shooter, Drew spends all day blaming the left. Why do so many "centrists" always run cover for fascists?

Don't let conservatives gaslight you. Leftist political violence is 10 times rarer than rightist political violence. In fact, every lethal political assassination in this US in the past 25 years, until today, has been perpetrated by a conservative.

Charlie Kirk has been shot In respect for his political views, let's defund mental healthcare and make easier to buy guns, so that more crazy people can do political assassinations

Saying this while defunding healthcare & food for the poor is spitting in the face of Jesus. Conservative Christians worship the devil.

Look at these numbers dude For the first time ever, a majority of Dems consider themselves progressives first, Democrats second If we don't try to run a progressive (and hopefully DSA!) candidate in every Dem primary, then we're a dead movement

It's telling that "hard on crime" types are never hard on the prime cause of crime: Young men, mentally unwell or unemployed without prospects. Do they support universal healthcare? Therapists in schools? Free college, free training, wage subsidies? A youth job guarantee? No.

I can't stop thinking about this: A literal **Satanist Nazi pedophile cult member** does a mass shooting And right-wing Christians say "We should take guns from the trans!" They actually hate trans people more than Satan

🎵 If only it were true I'd be so happy Wouldn't you? 🎵

> the west will use your lack of enthusiasm for Traore to usurp the government It's genuinely funny how many online communists treat "virtue signal really loudly on social media" like an actual theory of change "An unorganized socialist is just an angrier liberal" theory goes undefeated

Evil governement. Trump is citing a Nazi mass shooter to ban guns from trans people. The killers are far-right! Roughly 95% of terrorist deaths since 9/11 have come from White nationalists, Christian nationalists, and Muslim nationalists!

Amish guy who never graduated high school & can't use a computer for religious reasons: "I don't know what ADD is." MAGA: "I love the Amish! I love to impregnate teen moms who can't escape because they don't have a GED!" Kill me dude, these people are so stupid

I actually strongly support Trump in renaming the "Department of Defense" to the "Department of War" It's honest! We don't fight defensive wars -- the US is an empire pursuing its national interest. And it may make it easier to oppose in the future!

There is a real way to force the Dems to stop running centrists: Win partisan primaries! You can do more than withhold your vote from the Dems in a protest nobody cares about -- you can straight up replace the centrist Dem with a proud leftist! And we regularly do just that -- see DSA, for ex!

It's funny: The dumbest liberals & leftists, who want to destroy each other, both represent extreme minority views >85% of Dems would vote for a socialist Pres (even higher for Bernie, AOC, etc.) >90% of socialists voted Dem for Pres in 2024 (would be higher for a non-centrist)

I truly hate this kind of centrist Dem Want to win leftists back? Want the popular front to beat fascism? Then SHUT UP with endless, smarmy voter shaming! It persuades nobody! Either talk about how Dems are fighting against Trump & fighting for workers, or don't talk at all.

Conservatives never gave a shit about free speech or ideological diversity. Oklahoma will now screen teachers with a PragerU-designed test to kick out "radical leftists".

This is literally ICE agents
