If the Discord groups he hung out in were leftist or in any way “antifa” they would have been screaming about it this whole time. He hung out in far right meme circles. It looks like they’ve decided on the lone, crazy gunman approach so they can avoid accountability yet again.
Hijack the day and turn it into a memorial for all gun violence victims, it will piss off the Republicans and maybe do a little good. Probably not though.
They only care when they’re impacted. If they could triple the price of eggs for minorities so they could get them cheaper again they would do it in a heartbeat. They desperately want to pretend everything is fine.
This is going to make the conspiracy nuts latch on even harder. You just Streisanded yourself, dumbass.
ps: The American right wing hates Jews almost as much as they hate Muslims.
They want to be able to arrest their political opponents for saying mean things about them, but if California or NY used the same standard and arrested people in their states for actual hate speech the right wing outrage machine would go into an instant meltdown.
No scapegoat for you. Maybe try facing your moral and policy failures this time? No? Ok, keep praying to god. Maybe next time he’ll help you out with a black trans muslim shooter instead of yet another young white conservative dude.
Maybe I just don’t pay enough attention to right wing online culture (it’s too exhausting) but why are they acting like this guy was the second coming of Saint Ronald Reagan? Like was he that important to them? Would they have the same reaction if it was Shapiro or Crowder? Are they just outraged that one of their own caught a bullet?
Now that it turns out the shooter is another maladjusted young white dude I think they might let this one fade away faster than anticipated. They desperately wanted them to be brown\gay\trans\muslim\ other but they have no narrative to push now that it’s one of their own. They’ll try to go with the “antifa” narrative, but then they have to admit that Kirk was indeed a fascist.
Cancel Culture for thee, but not for me. Same old story with these hypocritical morons.
Careful Guardian, quoting his actual words and reminding people what a piece of garbage he was is going to get you attacked by the American Taliban.
Kirk organised but did not attend the so-called “Stop the Steal” protests after Trump lost the 2020 election and helped coordinate buses for the 6 January 2021 rally led by Trump near the White House, where the outgoing Republican president urged the crowd to “fight, fight, fight” to overturn his defeat by Joe Biden.
Putting a monument for this turd in the capital he tried to overthrow is just perfectly republican. These people are going to milk this guys death for the next dozen years at least.
They could be allowed to go back to the U.S. for work later if necessary, the officials said.
Yeah, that’s totally reasonable. I’d totally come back to get raided by racist goons a second time. What planet do these fucking idiots come from? I’d pull all investments from America if I was a from a not insane foreign nation.
He was a glorified internet troll who just happened to have the backing of some very wealthy right wing fuckheads. He wasn’t a politician. He was never elected by anyone to anything. He was a paid propagandist, and not even a smart one. The right wingers are about to ghoulishly try to profit off his death for the foreseeable future like this though.
This guy is cringe master supreme. He’s trying to role play as a hardened bad ass but he’s softer than a dairy queen on a hot summer day.
The main difference will be that right wingers forgot about that shooting within a week and they are never going to shut up about this one. The persecution fetish is about to reach new heights.
Oh, so you’re tired of being asked why you’re openly defending pedophiles and refusing to hold them accountable? Life is hard. These republicans have got it rough, let me tell you.
Nani!? It’s over 9000!!! Her persecution fetish just went super saiyon!!!
A) Unless the FBI are totally incompetent they know which Discord groups he was active in. B) They haven’t said anything about them so they don’t support the official narrative they’re trying to create (ie: leftist trans people are responsible). C) The bullet casing memes they released (if they’re real) are used in right wing meme circles (they didn’t understand them which is why they made them public).
I don’t know the names of his Discord groups however. If the FBI ever releases that info then I’ll let you know.
