      I should upvote because Drumpf has, in a very real sense, blood on his hands from his stochastic terrorism, mafioso fascist/rhetoric and policies; I should downote because political violence really doesn’t make things better; and yet evil also triumphs when good people do nothing. What to do, what to do…

      Will nothing rid us all of this turbulent turd? (Note “nothing”, not ‘no one’)

        Idk, I feel better with Kirk dead. Also, he can’t keep spreading his hate to millions, so that’s better too. Political violence doesn’t always makes things better, but sometimes it does, and I think a lack of Trump would be a good thing.

          I don’t feel better. I’m not white and from now on I’m even more likely to get shot than before. I’m staying inside as much as possible (was already doing that before, now I feel even less wanting to go outside). I heard a US Citizen got yeeted off the streets by ICE while walking in a park. Hell nah, fuck that. I’m rather just watch tv shows in the dark silence of an empty room in my house.

          I mean, I don’t mourn any deaths, but I’m also not “happy” about it. Rather just have the Bernie wins 2016 Timeline. My head hurts ever time there’s a new announcement from the dictator.

          On one have it’s definitely better he’s dead, but is that worth what they’re gearing up to do?

            They were already getting ready to purge their opposition and do multiple genocides, this taking point is entirely worthless.

            They’ve been hearing for something for a while and if not Kirk it would be something else. I don’t think that this will actually amount to much more than this weird nationalistic response to the death of a YouTuber.
