The murder of Charlie Kirk
Can we all admit that the majority of extremism is coming from the left over the last handful of years?
Apparently they j
Leave it to Trump to completely give the game away

"The left have the championship belt for extremism****"
Actually, right wing extremist Timothy McVeigh still holds the belt. He was responsible for the Oklahoma City bombing, which killed 168 people, injured almost 700 (many catastrophically) and caused $700 million dollars in property damage (1995 dollars - equals about $1.2 billion today.) That remains USA's gravest act of domestic terrorism.
And while there is no question that there has been an upswing in left wing extremism in recent years, there is als no doubt that right wing extremists are also running rampant. Look no further than the recent shooting of Minnesota Democrat John Hoffman and wife Yevette, and the subsequent murder of fellow Minnesota Democrat Melissa Hortman and husband Mark less than 3 months ago.
Let's remember that the political stance of the alleged perpetrator has not yet been made clear. Don't forget that the guy who took a shot at Trump last year was a registered Republican who had expressed anti-immigration and anti-semΓtic views.
All this is not an invitation to trot out competing examples of right wing and left wing extremism - it is just to say that the issue of political violence is not restricted to the believers of any single point of view. Where people on either side used to talk, now they just yell at each other.
This is not about ideology, this is about intolerance.

Yep, and we have a president that publicly supports right wing extremism.
This **** (c word) was on national TV blaming trannies for this less than 24 hours ago
Unbelievable amounts of disdain for this stupid ugly miserable bitch
Dude you donβt want understanding. You just want to be βcorrectβ and use it as an excuse to bludgeon the other side to death.
correct about what? i said we had to wait until they catch the perpetrator to know why he did it.
We already got way above what i needed from the reaction of leftists: their cheering for the death is the proof we needed of their complete incompatibility with civil society.
That stays true even if the killer went after Kirk becaues he was too moderate or too much pro Israel or whatever

Do you think disgusting republican slop-artists will recant their dangerous rhetoric if this is true?
Will OP admit he was a ****ing ****** jumping to conclusions if this is true?
Or will we get another lecture about Bayes theorem from people who donβt understand it?

This is why you have members in this thread on the right, who believe the right wing is not violent, despite the overwhelming evidence and data, they are. They don't realize how Trump, and the right wing media, saying the exact opposite of the truth on the daily, is warping their perception of reality, because they desperately want these narratives to be true. That deep desire for these false narratives to be true, despite all evidence to the contrary, is exactly how you become radicalized.
It's hard to listen to and watch, because it's so obvious from the outside. If you've read your history, you know where this goes next.
wow the guy is so racist and against gay that he has people like this defend him. gtfo you guys.

Fyi after deeply thinking about the civil right act I also think it was a mistake even though I am Asian. It create bad incentive for society even though it was suppose to be equal for all. But since it an white guy that has this though automatic consider racist. I hope you guys grow up just like I did from the Democrats party.

Lol man
βWe really need to understand whatβs going on here to stop future violenceβ
βDoesnβt matter why he did it as long as the left looks bad.β
Fully expect the conservative narrative to shift to vague platitudes about “mental health” while simultaneously doing nothing to help increase mental health support systems.
Lol man
“We really need to understand what’s going on here to stop future violence”
“Doesn’t matter why he did it as long as the left looks bad.”
Who are you talking to? i said it's useful to understand. I didn't say "to stop future violence".
I want to understand reality. I care about actual reality. That's the only way i can plan goals. My goal isn't to "stop future violence". I never said violence is always wrong. I said illegal unlegitimate violence is.
If we can legalize violence against the right targets, then how to radicalize people to be eager and willing to use legal violence (and support it and cheer it when it's done) against legitimate targets is very useful.

or we can hope the smallish anti-Israel, pro Hamas portion of the right gets wiped out completly which is good right? if that's the assassin motive
When right wing positions are that black people are inferior, LGBTQ is an afront to god, and that women are dumb and incapable then your normal positions are distinctly inciteful
The last is a hallucinatory strawman, no one at all's position. The second is a tiny fringe. Has anyone ITT expressed that they believe that?
As to the first assertion, the people who you would no doubt strawman as having that position don't actually have that position at all. This is a problem with the left generally.
I could create a sockpuppet leftist account and every single poster here would believe not only that it was genuine but that I was a hardcore dedicated adherent. And I'm low on the deconstructionist totem pole for sites like Counter-Currents, Amren, Unz.com etc. Almost everyone there knows leftist arguments inside and out and can accurately formulate them in complete authenticity.
Yet you step into a space like this, which is the absolute norm, and apparently earnest attempts at understanding the opposing side's views start to look like the person's describing what a cartoon version of Sheriff Stuckey from "Mississippi Burning" might say while drunk on moonshine at a Klan rally.
Are blacks as that word is universally used in the United States β referring to people of Bantu descent β superior at the 100m dash? You have three options. You can:
1) Answer correctly, a simple "yes". This makes you a racist per the Webster's dictionary definition. Now you can argue that the Webster's definition only applies to the ascription of general inferiority or superiority. But that's never how the term "racist" is used in practice in the US. Never. The interpretation of language is bound first by common usage
2a) Knowing the above, you can answer "no", in which case you're a liar or
2b) Not knowing the above, you can assume the answer is "no", in which case you're a presumptuous ignoramus.
This result generalizes. When asked such questions, you can only give answers that are in mutual exclusion to one another racist, lies or idiocy.
My goal isn't to "stop future violence". I never said violence is always wrong. I said illegal unlegitimate violence is.
If we can legalize violence against the right targets, then how to radicalize people to be eager and willing to use legal violence (and support it and cheer it when it's done) against legitimate targets is very useful.
ok, can you guys get rid of this idiot for good already?
i mean literally what purpose does this **** serve
go back to 8chan and finish your manifesto or whatever jfc

Very deep thinking demonstrated in this post. If your thinking about the civil rights act and subsequent amendments is as deep as this post, Iβm sure youβve got everything figured out that us libtards have never thought of.
lol
acab amirite

society needs to understand that legal law enforcement violence is needed to fix a lot of current societal problems.
If this guy for ex has been radicalized on 4chan, then people on 4chan need to be radicalized enough IN FAVOR OF CIVIL SOCIETY to rat on guys like this to law enforcement. Ofc you only need 1 at the end, not every one.
Some of you believe you can fix violence with flowers or something. Illegitimate violence can only be fixed by legal, organized violence.
But you need a lot of people willing to play the legal violent role. If the good people in society learn from you guys, no one is around to defend us from illegal violence.
It's people like you that makes it so that illegal violent acts can be common. Because there are no good guys to use legal violence to stop them
