Get wrecked white supremacist fascist, advocate for gun violence and against empathy means you shouldn't be surprised when someone takes you up on that bet.

"I told you once that I was searching for the nature of evil. I think I’ve come close to defining it: a lack of empathy. It’s the one characteristic that connects all the defendants. A genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow man. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy." - G M Gilbert

This only aged like milk if he was a hypocrite. Otherwise it was a sacrifice that he was willing to make and he led by example.

Someone wrote that he was wearing armor and had 8 body guards which suggests that he knew about the threat. So unlike others, he was willing to take the risk.

So many things I want to say, but won't because it'll probably get me banned....

So...

Thoughts and prayers!

[–] Seleni@lemmy.world 64 points 1 day ago (3 children)

They say you should only say good things about the dead.

Charlie Kirk is dead. Good.

I'm not calling for violence, but I would be so very pleased if we have nazi hunters again.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 37 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think it's time to stop being so nice about it. People like him encourage cruelty and violence. I think it's time to stop treating them with empathy until they learn his to be civil human beings again.

[–] CaptPretentious@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I am. It's a reality of humanity. Most of us would like peace myself included. But to have peace, you have to be able to defend it. You can't be passive. It's kind of the idea of why you would have military, people ready and willing to fight to preserve the peace from those that end peace.

My great-grandfather wasn't exactly sad when he helped take down the Nazis. And I'm not going to be particularly sad when taking down a neo-Nazi. Sorry, they like to be called maga now.

We must be intolerant of intolerance. Things tend to fall apart when we tolerate intolerance.

Spewing horrific quantities of shit better left inside, traumatizing and radicalizing all young people that witness it?

Yeah sounds right

My coworker showed me the video. Then proceeded to tell me that he's been watching Kirk since last year and that it was probably a "transgender" that shot him. My coworker is Mexican. Also several other coworkers stated that they enjoy the things that he used to say.

Yea this made the closet conservatives come out from under the woodwork. Instagram was awash with people posting his family photos that are otherwise outwardly apolitical.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 25 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Should I post pictures of Nazis with animals?

I feel like it’s cruel but this should be posterized and waved around his funeral. Maybe the people dressed in black will understand the concept of empathy then, violence really does seem to be the only language a fascist understands.

[–] bender223@lemmy.today 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

These ass hats tried to make empathy a bad word to give license for them to be evil. But they will lash out and cry when other ppl don't show them empathy. Fuck 'em.

Elon Musk cried like a little bitch when people burned his teslas and protested his ass for being a nazi... and he did that right after saying that empathy is wrong.

[–] madjo@feddit.nl 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I feel sorry for his kids, but I feel nothing for Kirk himself.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago

You unfeeling monster! I felt happiness that he was gone.

[–] JHRD1880@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Has to be said, it's incredibly how there is always a tweet.

We should honor him by not letting gun violence emotionally hijack the conversation.

Saw the video and ya... he won't be walking that one off. Medical science has come a long way but that's testing the limits.

I can't find video since everything is flooded with news people talking about it and won't show the actual footage. Got a link?

Edit: found one on mastodon. It's extremely NSFL. Do not watch if even remotely squeamish. I fucking hate that motherfucker and it was still pretty tough to watch. Very lights-out.
