Full Reichstag Fire

This would be way more effective if they labelled them fascists.

Not if you can just label all of your political opponents terrorists.
; )

So Important that these fascists and terrorists have these labels so much.

It’s apparently so important that in just the last 4 days we needed an Executive Order and a Presidential Memorandum issued about it.

And this thread! So much importance.

I’ve been holding my breath since Kirk was murdered

I've been mourning, anxious, and angry since Kirk was murdered.

sorting through the angry and unhinged rhetoric to look for signs of what the regime would actually do in response.

Sorting through thousands upon thousands of hateful and unhinged cable news hosts, news articles writers, politicians, social media posters, talk radio show hosts, and message board posters that have irresponsibly labeled millions of American citizens as fascists/Nazis/racists.

Catch.

Ain't it something? Must be nice to be so righteous.

They can't point to a damn thing authoritatively different than their own side, but they can point to Nazis super-duper importantly.

Well said Res, thanks.

Seems like both parties when in power want to eviscerate the 1st amendment. Disagreement is not hate speech. Misinformation, mal-information, disinformation, should be allowed, called out, responded to, but allowed.

for what it's worth here were my reactions to Kirk's murder fueled by anger and disgust. The Nazi name calling you are referring to is not about Charlie Kirk. It's about Trump's policies. Don't mix up the two. Now. I'm away from here for the weekend and doing what I damn well said I would do. I suggest you do the same. Log off and stop going through thousands upon thousands of anything. That's both obsessive and excessive. It does no good for anyone and changes nothing. That's absolutely crazy, Ceebs. Stop it. It's toxic. Stop feeding off poison.

FOX is the only source I watched about the murder. I didn't hear that at all. In my defense I didn't listen for more than say an hour.

And I don't plan to either.

If what you say is true, he declared war on the Left. The other side of that coin is that the Left will use it to declare war on gun rights.

It's all too predictable and unseemly. Both "sides" are guilty of this. And the sides+ social media+"news" outlets for profit+greed are the problem. People seeking fame and fortune while marginalizing other humans. ALL of it is the problem.

Thoroughly disgusted by this act of violence and destruction. What is the point of this crap? Someone kills him likely because they object to his politics? Like he doesn't have an entire organization behind him that will continue their mission?

WTAF is wrong with people? Mentally ill? Isolation? Reliance on social media as if it were real? All of the above?

It's simply horrifying how easily people in this society will take a human life. I'm so SICK of this devaluation of life!

This is all I have to say. The killing of Charlie Kirk was heinous. NO one should be harmed because of their political views spoken at a peaceful assembly.

The "Right" is going to say that the "Left" is responsible for this.

Everyone's going to start yapping about gun control without passing anything to make improvements.

LISTEN. If this country didn't act when Sandy Hook happened it's sure as hell not going to act now.

The political rhetoric and status/power seeking is absolutely repulsive. That elected officials (by US) are running their collective mouths instead of doing their DAMN JOBS is nothing short of robbery of the American people and it doesn't matter what "side" is doing what.

Collectively they aren't doing their JOBS and taking our money.

End to this political football game at our expense and the expense of human lives.

F it ALL. F it all to hell and back again.

Yep. The only thing the parties hate worse than the other party's crazy crap is the other party's copycat crazy crap.

No worries. The President himself has loudly and publicly declared that he hates half of the country, the Administration has issued a memorandum and an Executive order to lay the groundwork for arresting political rivals, and the Republican Party has proudly proclaimed itself at CPAC to be Domestic Terrorists.



We live in interesting times.
