   I hang out on social media from time to time. What I have seen over and over   
   and over and over in the wake of Kirk's murder is "the left" saying "He   
   sucked, but what happened was and is 100% wrong." In fact, "the leftists" in   
   the press (e.g., Ezra Klein) and in government (e.g., Newsom, Obama, probably   
   others I've already forgotten) have gone completely overboard in their   
   *praise* of that now dead Nazi. Klein went so far as to say "Charlie Kirk was   
   practicing politics the right way." I guess that means that Klein believes   
   that stoning people for what they do in the bedroom is a good idea. Who knows?   
      
   What I saw coming from "the right" from the *INSTANT* the Nazi was shot   
   was "This is war!" (Libs of TikTok) and demands that all "Democrat-run   
   states" be bombed by the U.S. military. And even here in this thread, now that   
   we know (or at least think we know) who shot him, how he was raised and what he   
   apparently believed, it's little more than butthurt Nazi trash shrieking   
   about how it's all the fault of "the left."   
      
   Kirk devoted his life to hurting (or at least attempting to hurt) a huge   
   number of people for the sin of daring to not look like him or want the   
   same things in life that he wanted. He was scum. He also didn't deserve   
   to be murdered for simply being nothing more than an dickhead who figured   
   out how to monetize his bigotry. Killing him never had the slightest   
   chance of accomplishing anything positive whatsoever. But neither does   
   knee-jerk blaming "the left" for his death when that's clearly not the   
   case at all.   
      
   As for political violence, Kirk paid for buses to take people to January   
   6. But since that was "the right" in action, I guess it wasn't really   
   political violence.
