Off My Chest

RULES:

I am looking for mods!

1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

Watching the Charlie Kirk video felt good. (lemmy.world)

I'm not sorry. Seeing someone who spread so much hate and bigotry and weaponized disinformation get his clock cleaned was absolutely fine by me.

I have empathy for lots of people even if we don't always agree, but not for people like Charlie Kirk.

I wish ill on people who do evil shit. I also wish they'd see the error of their ways and make amends. They don't tend to though. Watching Charlie get so neatly picked off like a clay pigeon in a shooting gallery as he was about to spew more horseshit was highly satisfying.

I can't tell you how many times I've watched that 4 second clip. I even fucking downloaded it.

It's getting hard to find, Google has wiped it out. I found some on Facebook. Just pop, gush, and old Charlie has reached his own personal turning point.

That doesn't surprise me at all, that's why I downloaded it. I even showed it to a right-winger last night at work. Maybe he makes the connection that these ideas are dangerous, maybe he doesn't. He just said "oh my God... What the fuck..." Another dude brought it up but never heard of him. He had already seen the video but was asking who he is, and I told him he's a propagandist for the right wing. He said "ahhh fuck em then."

Gosh that's precise. Like barely finishes speaking, and picked off like a clay pigeon in a shooting gallery. Whoever did it must be a pro.

Mastadon.

Edit: it was from a link someone posted on the mega thread.

Low def and choppy though...

Edit: also I like hearing "gang violence" and the pop.
