Still trying to get this pipe dream

Be kind people and help a sister out.

Do you remember when musk did the Nazi salute and some Libs were like, he just got excited

People missing an important point about folks getting fired for whatever they said about Charlie Kirk: Americans are being conditioned to be snitches on their fellow citizens who don’t toe a party line on what is “allowed” to be expressed. And employers are going along. It’s the new secret police

If you’re not going to fuck me what are we doing here? A bit of hand play? Do you also go to the buffet for chips? Dude. Stop.

You have to love this woman schooling vanessa feltz about it being white right wing privilege on free speech

Remember when they said that having to bake a cake for gay people was a monstrous threat to free speech www.thedailybeast.com/office-depot...

It's really impossible to explain how overwhelmingly terrifying it is being a trans person right now. They are looking for any and every excuse to come after us.

This is just completely false. There is zero evidence the former roommate is trans. This is completely just the media trying to blame trans people because they want to legitimize political violence against trans people.

Everyone talking about how leftists were gleeful about Charlie Kirk dying, but it's weird how no one is talking about how the right was…also gleeful. When they post about how they finally get to take off the mask and destroy leftism – that is glee. That is them being very happy this happened.

I don't want things to swing back to the center. That's how we got here. I want RADICAL UNAPOLOGETIC EMPATHY

If we transported 2025 Charlie Kirk back to 2012 he would have been widely considered the most vile and contemptible human being in politics, worse even than Limbaugh. That he wasn't in 2025 is a testament to how much of a permission structure for gutter racism the right has built.

I am advocating for you to be killed but I am using my inside voice you must debate me this is called democracy

Yuuuuup. Also, I don't give a shit if some of the worst people in the world think I am being performative or am virtue signaling. Fuck 'em. They don't get to tell me how to be. Anyway, trans rights are human rights, y'all. It's not complicated.

It’s almost like there’s a pattern we should watch for more carefully.

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class. This is Kirk's legacy. You would never know it from reading all of these legacy newspaper op-eds about him.

We’ve been living through 72 nonstop hours of this exact tweet

in america, simply living with someone who might possibly be trans is terrorism now. everyone sees what their going to try to do now right

This is unhinged, dangerous, and reckless. At this point I don't know how you conclude anything other than that Musk is trying to foment pogroms against immigrants across the west.

Why isn’t every local news broadcast opening with, “What are the ‘Groypers’, and how do you know the signs of your son is part of the deadly gang?”

Girls don’t want love. Girls want to be Sandra Bullock in Practical Magic (1998) running down the road in daisy dukes and knee high boots in to the arms of a rugged fruit salesman.

I’d prefer to transition *before* they open the camps

"…and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel.”

I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.

The Nation pulls NO punches, from @espiers.bsky.social "There's no requirement to take part in this whitewashing campaign. Refusing to join in doesn’t make anyone a bad person. It’s a choice to write an obituary that begins “Joseph Goebbels was a gifted marketer and loving father to six children.”

Just thinking about how the right made up an entirely fictional left wing character that resulted in so many bomb threats and the like and nobody will face consequences. But people on the left who accurately clocked the victim’s life work lost jobs.

For those praising Charlie Kirk, ask them if they agree with Kirk when he said the Civil Rights Act was a huge mistake, MLK was an awful person, Palestine doesn't exist, women's place is under their husband, and that the white supremacist "replacement theory" is real. I'd love to hear the answers.

This was just last month and we have already memoryholed it. A cop killed by an antivaxxer.

The reason Charlie Kirk got splattered mid racial epithet is because he felt safe that his violent rhetoric would only hurt ethnic minorities, sexual minorities, and people who give a fuck about being nice to people. To mourn him now is crass disrespect to those his words killed by full intention.

charlie kirk has received infinitely more sympathy and support from liberals than every single trans person, immigrant, and palestinian combined

Why is Keir Starmer commenting on the assassination of a far-right commentator and activist in an entirely different country? This is like if Trump gave a big speech about someone from a UK left-wing Youtube channel if they were killed. Starmer didn't comment on the death of Melissa Hortman.

no offends if this is you but if you're thinking "this is going to make the right do fascism" they're already there. they blew up a boat with 11 people on it for being immigrants. they're kidnapping US citizens and trying to rendition them to Uganda. do you think we're on a trajectory to peace

It is weird that the assassination of essentially a celebrity influencer is a bigger deal than the shooting of two top state legislators + their spouses

Every politician is like “Now is the time to unite around this sacred message: Please don’t kill us.”

Please help.

The truth of the matter is that if anyone but Charlie Kirk had been killed at today’s shooting, then Charlie Kirk would be out there right now using the shooting as pretext to deliver arguments designed to make sure that the next shooting would happen, and the next one, and the next, and the next.

Charlie Kirk should not have been shot. Charlie Kirk was a far right racist, transphobe, misogynist, and spreader of hate. These two things are true. He was not, as the BBC seems intent on misleading us, some sort of hero who was widely loved and adored by all who met him. #Newsnight

if charlie kirk didn't get shot the right wing would be equally and as consequentially as mad about a tv commercial or restaurant logo or something else, they're gonna do what they're gonna do regardless

if uk politicians believed that "there's no justification for political violence" and "we muse all be free to debate openly and freely without fear" they wouldn't be validating the "flag force" that try to burn down hotels, while taking away people's rights who protest peacefully

He died as he lived: Sitting under an unintentional punchline while being a racist prick defending mass shootings.

I do not understand the mindset that makes liberals express sympathy for someone who would have absolutely celebrated if the roles were reversed, like bro, have some god damned self respect
