As for "nobody deserves to be shot for their speech": yeah, probably not, but when you've got a guy who had argued against anything that'd meaningfully make gun violence at school less likely getting gacked at a school it's hard for me to feel too bad about it.

The "holistic" answer to these problems would be criminalization of firearm ownership and a substantial reduction in arms manufacturing, neither of which is served by anything Kirk has argued in for in the years I've been following his work.

Furthermore, given Kirk's past statements on the subject, he would, in fact, defend school shootings, or at least argue that they are a worthy cost for the freedom to bear arms.

Well, there isn't much overlap between the methodology or motivations of individual mass shootings and generalized gang violence. So answering a question about mass shooters of color with a deflection about gang violence is to imply direct connection to gang violence and POC, which is racist.

Hey, at least he died doing what he loved: making a stupid, racist argument in favor of shit that sucks.

Feel like that counts as ad hominem.

I take solace knowing Charlie went out doing what he loved: saying something super racist

At least serial killers are able to pretend at being human

Good job marketing yourself Casey

I genuinely don't know how best to share this effectively.

The cis world doesn't really care about trans people and social media websites even less.

It's almost like the MAGA strategy irt the media is to just shovel as many stories out at once as you can, like a squid squirting ink.

It's not like with the Clintonites where their base was either in lock-step with leadership on this issue or just didn't really care, these two factions are not the type to let this shit go and let bygones be bygones.
I'm extremely curious to see how all this shapes out in the coming weeks.

A lot of people who were driven insane by learning Epstein shit the first time around now make up a decent portion of MAGA's activist base in the form of Q-anon heads. The other contingent of activists in MAGA's base are people who are vehement about how age of consent should be abolished.

When the Clintonites tried that it just made everyone look at how close Clinton was to Epstein, and now that Trump's trying the same thing the same shit's happening.
There's a key difference here though.

I find this Trump/Epstein own-goal fascinating. MAGA leaders are basically doing what the Clintonites were doing when Epstein was really entering the public consciousness, basically just putting the fingers in the ears and going "nah don't worry about that".

keep hearing reports that Superman is from another planet?? Gotta say folks, really fucked up to do this kinda thing, let people enjoy new media before ruining things.

I'm voting YES, but I have a frowny face and I'm shaking my head so people know I don't agree with it

"What does it do?"
"This ain't about that"

I made Hungarian goulash the other day and it was fuckin tight as hell.

I'm going to be honest here, I think AI is going to do so much damage to the usable internet that even after it's inevitably crashes out, it's going to take years to disentangle from every space it's polluted, like digital asbestos it's gonna be time consuming effort and likely expensive venture.

Validity is trans-positivity in its most useless form.

It's very funny to me that Matt clearly put more effort into his post but still just sounds like a bot.

Please help

free mass public transit should be a climate policy supported by anyone who claims to care about the problem

reduce miles driven by those most in need and you reduce emissions while also reducing income inequality

"New York is the Boston of New York"

Dawg don't tell me that

I'd support it but only if we somehow used spikes to keep homeless people off it

Yeah I feel you.

Oh that's fun
