Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

For the record.
My posts were not even about Kirk directly, but about America's apathy towards political violence, and the coddling of white male shooters and hate peddlers.
I was fired because I mentioned race: white men and violence-- that was my "gross misconduct."

Vance: “People on the left are much likelier to defend and celebrate political violence. This is not a both sides problem. If both sides have a problem, then one side has a much bigger and malignant problem and that is the truth.”

Yesterday, the largest far-right protest in UK history marched through London, led by racist Tommy Robinson.
Today, we say: They don’t speak for us — and they won’t have the last word.
This Wednesday we come together against Trump and for a better future. Do everything to be there.

Start boycotting not only elon products but, whenever possible, products that elon's shareholders own. Anyone and anything promoting him needs to be handled by the same regulations we reserve to funding of terrorism.

Tyler Robinson, the alleged assassin of Charlie Kirk, is speculated to be a Groyper based on his memes and rhetoric.
Groypers are a loose network of alt right pro Trump extremist who are vocal supporters of white supremacist and “America First” podcaster Nick Fuentes.

I have two professor colleagues who have faced threats and harassment due to the organization Charlie Kirk built, and they were not alone. We can denounce and loathe political violence without hagiography for its victims. This is dangerous nonsense.
"But I envied what he built. A taste for disagreement is a virtue in a democracy. Liberalism could use more of his moxie and fearlessness."
That is Ezra Klein.

So our military just bombed a boat in international waters and extrajudicially killed suspected drug traffickers without so much as a conversation, let alone a trial?
Then posted it on social media?
And we’re all supposed to just trust their account?

The EU doesn’t really do knee-jerk reactions.
And when it comes to trade wars, it prepares its case, builds a consensus among its members — and saves its most painful retaliation until last.

“He made 2.5 million today and he made $900 million. That’s not bad.”
