Friendly reminder that the right immediately buried the incident after they found Kirk got murked by one of their own

[–] Chulk@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 week ago

The story itself was buried, but It basically created NSPM-7. I think they got exactly what they wanted out of the Charlie Kirk killing.

You say that, but a "conservative" friend, who has been voting on the left as of late, claims the shooter was on the left because of trans connections and "It doesn't make sense the right would shoot their own." I brought up the subset of groypers that helps explain it, but this was rejected and it was suggested I was blind to the truth by my biases and there was no convincing him.

see you can laugh about it, because you don't have to fear to hurt some right wing nationalists and you don't have to show that you are the better person while literal nazis abolish any form of civil agreements. 

most comedians really live in the comfortable zone of the political "center" not realizing that the center in the middle of a political right shift also shifts further to the right.

[–] FatVegan@leminal.space 14 points 1 week ago

The hoke wrote itself

[–] bennieandthez@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 1 week ago

It's not as funny as his widow going full grift mode afterwards.

[–] 6stringringer@lemmy.zip 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It looks like he’s dancing in of those 80’s teen movies. That’s kinda funny.

[–] Blakey@hexbear.net 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

weird how his neck just did that

[–] 6stringringer@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago

That’s very similar to my latest JFK theory. His head just exploded on its own. No snipers from the book depository or behind the grassy knoll. Straight up Boom!

Consider who is paying comedians their salaries..

[–] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

That's because they were threatening anyone who made fun of ck being shot.

[–] collapse_already@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 week ago

The most acceptable loss for the Freedumb to own guns? I saw plenty of things making fun of him. Even before his body fully hit the floor. My favorite was a package of fruit gushers that had been altered to say Kirk Gushers and had his face with a flow of liquid coming from the neck.

Guess we watch different comedians

[–] huf@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago

[–] deathbird@mander.xyz 4 points 1 week ago

Still can't tell if comedy is legal again or not. Someone make a flowchart.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 2 points 1 week ago

I'm not afraid to say it - Charlie Kirk laughed and I'm glad. Good riddance. My only problem with it is that it made him a martyr. Better that these shitheads die of natural causes.
