I haven’t posted in a while because life keeps happening. But I have been seeing some absolute dogshit in response to the death of Charles Entertainment Kirk. And so here’s my two cents.
Charlie Kirk bought and paid for the bullet that ended his life with a career whose sole purpose was creating a monster that eats children and shits nazis. He spent his entire adult life, brief as it ended up being, working tirelessly to shape a system intended to hurt people. His greatest passion in life was talking down to minorities and advocating for the constitutional right that ended his life.
I don’t have the moral high ground or ethical authority to tell people how to feel. But I will never mourn a dead fascist. I don’t think they deserve obituaries or funerals or tears, God knows if you were dead they wouldn’t offer those things to you. Charlie Kirk wouldn’t mourn me.
I am exhausted seeing every single liberal glazing this dead fascist and saying “there is no place for political violence in America”, while every conservative says “we need to respond with more political violence.” The Democrats, and liberals more broadly, need to find their balls. Or at the very least stop talking. What do you think political violence is? When Derek Chauvin killed George Floyd (another father), that was political violence (and Charlie Kirk called Flloyd scum at the time). But when the first brick was thrown at Stonewall, that was also political violence. Political violence is everywhere, and necessary at times. It is a tactic, and one which accomplishes goals that other tactics cannot access. That is not to say that wanton murder is necessary, but to claim that “violence has no place in American democracy” or whatever other drivel is simply ahistoric, and stymies progress while the bad people keep doing the violence because they have no capacity to be shamed into morality.
Charlie Kirk’s last words were spent blaming gun deaths in America on Black people. He was a fascist whose stated goal was to inspire more fascists. He’s dead, and I can’t wait to forget him. You won’t see me posting memes or party hat emojis celebrating his death, but neither will you see me cry for this dead Nazi.
Why don’t you commemorate this solid L for team “Nothing Ever Happens” by signing up for a Stop the Bleed class. I suspect we’re all gonna need to learn how to treat a gunshot wound before this shit is over.
Take care of each other, make smart choices. Kill fascists if you have to. Until next time folks.
