Plenty of people are saying it was correct and good to shoot him.
And I’m not whitewashing his history. He was the worst kind of asshole. I’m not sad he’s dead. But there are in fact a lot of people on this site arguing that it was the absolutely correct thing to do to extrajudicially murder him, and that’s where I disagree.
about 3-4 posts down I see a collection of a particular someone’s quotes
I can’t tell if these are Charlie Kirk takes or Jerry Seinfeld
Look, I fully agree Kirk was trash. You’re preaching to the choir here.
But I shy away from saying “any extrajudicial killing is fine when it’s against someone I think is trash.”
If he’d died a natural death the world would be a better place for it, but that doesn’t make it okay that he was murdered.
It’s a dangerous game when we just start saying it’s okay to murder bad people without due process.
nope I’m joyfull that he is dead.
I don’t think many people are saying it’s ok he was murdered. Just that we aren’t that upset about it.
No. It’s cool. Lots of people probably have justified hangovers from celebrating too hard
excuse me i have not stopped
I mean, perhaps you’re right, but I bet if we took a poll here we’d get a majority of people sounding off that it was a good thing he was murdered.
But maybe you’re right and everyone agrees it was bad he was murdered. I wouldn’t bet on it though.
Killing fascists is good, actually
Due process would be nice, but it doesn’t seem to be a thing in the US anymore for anyone leaning right.
Didn’t happen soon enough.
Charlie Kirk advocated violence. Charlie Kirk caused people’s deaths.
I don’t see anyone here saying that it was correct to shoot him, but we don’t have to whitewash his history.
I mean, in this exact thread, lol: https://lemmy.world/comment/19339137
