You know what else does a lot of damage?

    Well it's definitely not "new-age", but apparently the worth "empathy" only entered the English language in 1908.

    So I'm gonna pretend like it's 1776 like he always wanted me to do and not have empathy for him 😆

    This whole thing is irony overload

    We wouldn't happen to have the link/recording/article that this came from for context, would we? Not to sound like a "SOURCE?!?!?" troll, but I'm curious.

    Empathy does a lot less damage than a bullet to the neck.

    Someone’s told me elsewhere that these quotes have been taken out of context. I said he should have been more careful with words.

    Lot of people seem to agree with him, judging from the responses to his death.

    We already knew his views were wild and insane but killing him for it was a bad idea and cruel to his family and friends (I'm guessing he had some). Metaphorically jumping up and down on his grave is just bad taste. The best thing we can do is consign him to an obscure footnote in history and desist from publishing his views for him.

    edit to the replies - Holy hell this place has turned into reddit on a bad.

    did-someone fuck that and fuck you, I look forward to using the new unisex toilet. "What about all the other Nazis who might have their feelings hurt?" Fuck off.

    If this is such a bad thing, then why did Ben Shapiro cancel his speaking arrangements today? All these grifters are freaking out because they never expected to face a consequence for anything they said or did

    We can't kill fascists because, gasp, they have families too!

    All this boohooing about his family. His wife chose to marry him because he’s a reactionary racist transphobic piece of shit. Meaning she herself is one. The only people I feel bad for are the young kids

    Nope, this is a message to the MAGA Nazis. Turn it up LOUD.

    In another context maybe, but linking it with his death doesn't help the cause.

  • Nah, violence is the only language they understand. These fascist have killed tons of innocent people, and Kirk was one of the propagandists that helped enable it. This was self-defense, and the only way to stop them from attacking us is to show that we will defend ourselves.

    You're the kind of person that will walk right into the gas chambers without a peep, and make it easy for the Nazis. They're just doing their job, after all.

    A lot of us aren't taking it so easy. We're going down swinging.

    You seem real upset that a white christo-nationalist terrorism advocate is dead. Seems like you're telling on yourself, fashy

    Nope. The guy was clearly a shit. Just hope people rise above it and never speak about him again, there are better things to waste our effort on.

    The only reliable way to deal with fascists is to kill them. They will keep killing us until we force them to stop.

    Kirk might not have been out there shooting people in the street like a common beat cop, but he built a career out of stochastic terrorism. He suffered the same fate that he advocated for innocent people.

    Holy hell this place has turned into reddit on a bad.

    You are literally the one expressing the mainstream (and only tolerated) opinion on reddit and doing the cringe reddiqetue thing where you edit your comment to insult others without actually elaborating

    I'm sorry. Being vitriolic and spreading more hate is the only right way to react? I'm glad he is gone, and causes right wing shits like him to realise they are not immune to consequences, is great. I just hate the way people are sharing his views in the process. They are just doing his work for him.

    Yeah so hate to break it to you but the real world isn't like disney movies and there's no holy battle between good and evil. Yes, I celebrate when active rapists and serial killers get killed and I also celebrate when fascists get killed.

    It's not praxis but it's still a nice bonus regardless because these are people actively inflicting harm on the actually innocent people whose lives you seem to completely trivialize. If you think that's a bad thing your priorities are grossly misaligned.
