Not the most important thing, but means I don't have to remember which one is Kirk and which is Shapiro anymore.
He was an advocate of violence against his political opponents and took positions like “the civil rights act should be repealed,” “the Jews are replacing white people,” and “Ukraine is an evil country and we should let them die.” Kirk’s entire career played a nontrivial role in getting us here.
I feel like I am taking crazy pills. Charlie Kirk’s ultimate goal, which he said time and time again, would have been the suppression, through threat of violence and the use of state power, of the rights of those he disagreed with, including freedom of expression.

Honestly I can hardly even believe someone would think to say this while the West Bank is currently being airstriked and raided in the city of Jenin by Israeli and Israeli-aligned Palestinian forces and the largest wave of illegal Israeli settlements in the WB in decades is occuring.

Obviously this is a fair point, but weren't some fairly wishy washy libs in favour of this too? Think it might suggest we have an odd set of commentators as much as the RW ones are twats.
imagine telling the columnists who wanted to send in the army on some inner-London kids in 2011 that fifteen years on they'd actually be pro-riots
