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
I really havent seen many people cheering this on. the mainstream media and the leading Democrats have all been praising Kirk (lol) and condemning his murder. the socialist and anti-Imperialist people that I follow literally dont care and are pretty befuddled that he is getting so much attention.I think you guys are getting hoodwinked by the algorithm a little bit.
wtf are you
Do they discuss Charlie before or after Slenderman?
Has nothing to do with ethnicity. I don't even know (or care) what your ethnicity is.
Don Juan was a man known for his handsome good looks and his way with the ladies.
Unlike Lefties, I don't play the race/gender/ABCDF+ card every three seconds.

Make it a great day!
I am going to let you off now since it took you more than 3 hours to write something and tells us about Don Juan biography.
I would disagree there. Fuentes is a seminal figure on the Right. Kirk was just the social media equivalent of being "good on tv" and was not really as much of a leader. There are lots of Kirks and no other of Fuentes. You don't see politicians as big as Vance acting like the need Kirk's approval, but they are desperate for Fuentes's approval. How do you make a name for yoursel
Yeah, we will not be agreeing on this one. Kirk is another attempt to push and maintain the status quo of old school conservative takes. Nick formed more in itself.
If i had to guess to what happens in the future, id say that alot of people are going to wonder why all these loons are attaching themselves to Nick now when it was mostly already the case and just becoming exposed.
And i have no idea if that could be a good thing or a bad thing.
Kirk was paid well to be on board. Most of the maga rhetoric that's turned out to be lots of bs is pretty much why there's a big schism. The NF kids think trump's completely betrayed them and just straight up lied to try to get their support.
fuentes told his supporters not to vote for trump. they don't admnd they are like the victor's of the right.
fully obsessed by israel.above everything else, so trump and maga disregard them in full as being 100% pro Israel is core maga
Actually, your putative counterexample to my claim is an even worse example.
Since Lennon was shot, a stabbing twenty years later kinda undercuts that as an example of a "copy cat" crime.
Maybe you don't know what "copy cat" means? I can provide a link if you want.
Make it a great day!
Guns are much harder to get in Oxfordshire than NYC I'm not even saying it was a copy cat. Just that you chose an example about as dumb as one would expect given it's you.

Thanks for 'letting me off.'
And I wrote my response to you immediately after I saw it. Took about five minutes.
Unlike Luciom, I don't typically post here 24/7.
I've been a bit sick and stuck at home for a couple days, which is why I've made about a gazillion posts in the last three days.
Being a bit sick also helps to explain why I have 'liked' posts by Coordi, Trolly and Victor. I doubt that would happen if I was completely well.
Make it a great day!
Since I'm talking to two of the most mathematically incompetent people in this forum, the analogy would be akin to someone saying "right wing influencers married to former beauty pageant winners are not likely to be shot." Sure that's true, but you've picked the dumbest possible example.

Well, the post of mine you were responding to was about "copy cat" crimes. It was literally worded that way in my post.
That said, I plead 'guilty as charged' for often being a dum-dum.

Four out of every three posters in this forum believe I'm bad at math.

You said
The murder of John Lennon didn't cause random psychos to go after Ringo Starr.
When a "random phycho" literally did go after George Harrison. A smart person would have said "well, I didn't know/forgot about that and I would have picked a different example had I known".
fuentes told his supporters not to vote for trump. they don't admnd they are like the victor's of the right.

Why would they 'need' the approval of a guy who is paid to be a supporter and has followers that will do whatever the tv/trump tells them? The ones that know they got suckered and are still in obv don't care enough to bail. And the NF contingent will continue to make tons of noise--which is a pretty new development on the right really.

Eda is right, your exemple was the worst, and if you can't see the irony in it , no one can help you.
It would have been perfect if on purpose though.
Your rant about copycat has nothing to do with the irony of the exemple you chose. (that being said , I don't think you knew about harrison).

I’m willing to discuss the potential for copycat crimes but not when the causal chain is speculative and politically motivated.
“People on the left are celebrating, therefore more lefties will now go commit the same crime” is not grounded in evidence. Neither are copycat crimes that simple or predictable. They are rare and complex.
I’m not going to go along with what is very overtly an attempt to exploit fear for the sake of a political narrative and agenda. There is no proven link between celebration or criticism and copycat crime.
If there is, post it.

I agree with you 100%
I was getting pushback for essentially expressing the view that you just expressed (but far better than I did).
I don't think it's smart to avoid twitter, a lot of stuff these days starts there and then gets discussed on "normal" media, being on twitter is like being closer to the original sources.
Besides on twitter you also get all the normal media takes anyway if you care about them
Would love to see your timeline. You conversing with right wing bots from Russia thinking they are extreme MAGA from the US has to be hilarious.

Hey, how hard was it for you to not call them alphabet people when mocking them above?

I wasn't 'ranting.' I leave that to SRM.
Or rather it appears that those who have argued in favour of cancellation all this time are now imposing it by force with military rifle ammunition.
Lmao I’m dying laughing at the thought that political assassination by a lone wolf is the same as cancellation. It’s not even close to the same mechanism. You get canceled by a mob, not by a dude with a rifle.

Shooter from the left, was dating a transitioning male to female. Unclear if that was part of the motive and the individual is cooperating with authorities and is believed to have had no prior knowledge of the attack.

It's easier for me to remember the alphabet than remember an acronym that I don't even remember what each letter stands for.
Much too long of an acronym for one that doesn't even spell a word.
I always liked HOMES to remember the Great Lakes.
addendum: And what [strike]bozo[/strike] expert thought putting a '+' in an acronym was a good idea?
