We are all Charlie Kirk now

Be careful what you wish for

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 57 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah but all those kids that died in Sandy Hook, fuck them right? Thumb headed worm.

[–] Speaker@hexbear.net 53 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Lmao, right wing grifters already on the "Je suis Charlie" train.

They suddenly felt a gust of fear, i bet up to now they felt absolutely immune to the effect of the hateful propaganda they produce. They will also double down on it.

Has anyone asked Alex Jones if Charlie Kirk was a crisis actor

[–] peeonyou@hexbear.net 14 points 2 weeks ago

maybe Alex Jones is the crisis actor

I mean... I saw the vid.

It isn't for those who get queasy.

But calling it brutal is a stretch. What the Zetas do to their victims, is brutal. Putting a Goodyear around your neck and having it lit on fire while you are still wearing it is brutal. What happened to James Byrd Jr was brutal. What happened to Matthew Shepard was brutal.

This is someone dying, but far from brutal.

Fuck Charlie Kirk.

I've seen too much traumatic death and a fair number of arterial bleeds in person, plus all the shit I've seen online. Even though I'm fully i-do about the shooting itself, the video bewildered me and made me warn others against because it's one of those moments where you suddenly realise how much blood is in a person. I've never seen someone bleed out like that where it's five seconds until unconsciousness at most. It isn't brutal in the sense that I want to extend empathy toward him, it's just physiological body horror seeing what blood pressure really means. It's like a Kurosawa film.

It was somewhere between Tarantino and an unfortunate incident involving a jelly donut, but the jelly is actually white supremacist juice so it loops back around to not being that unfortunate, provided you aren't one of the poor venue workers on the cleanup crew

[–] SickSemper@hexbear.net 22 points 2 weeks ago

I saw more brutal shit from Syria within the last few months, this was almost surgical (minus the blood spurt)

[–] Comrade_Mushroom@hexbear.net 15 points 2 weeks ago

I remember that incident a while ago where the news reporter lady and her camera man got shot while recording. You don't even see her get shot, but the sounds she made... I regret watching the video, and it was much much worse than this.

[–] Hohsia@hexbear.net 41 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Truly unfortunate how you can dig up whatever heinous shit Kirk said about literally anything and the “too soon” crowd will still ultimately win out

We still live in a hell where social murder doesn’t exist unfortunately

i have a lesbian couple as neighbors like 5 or 6 doors down, who has a ‘in this house we …’ sign out front told me that my gloating over Charlie Kirk is the reason why she has problems w calling herself a leftist (she just took the Beto sticker off her crosstrek some time back).

I really wanted to say something, but I wasnt sure what to say so I just told her to have a good evening and kept walking the dog.

[–] Ishmael@hexbear.net 31 points 2 weeks ago

Sounds like the lib version of the "I became a Nazi because you kept calling me a Nazi" thing

Why they always recording from their car?

[–] micnd90@hexbear.net 22 points 2 weeks ago

It's an unc thing

[–] BGDelirium@hexbear.net 17 points 1 week ago

It's their safe space

Meanwhile us true tough lefties on the bikes and trains they're so scared of sicko-biker train-shining

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 24 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

He's basically the comic relief character of this drama

[–] hollowmines@hexbear.net 10 points 2 weeks ago

I think that's still Charlie.

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 23 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm actually really surprised Alex Jones never got got. Surely at least one crank whose life collapsed around them because of all the conspiracy nonsense would've tied their life being destroyed back to him.

[–] Commie_Chameleon@hexbear.net 21 points 2 weeks ago

I heard a clip of this (can’t do the whole thing I’m not that strong) and he openly admits if he went out into public as often as Kirk did he would have been shot already. Think he ties it back to the libs in his head, but I bet you’re right about a crank of his doing the deed.

Charlie blood flow

[–] Rojo27@hexbear.net 20 points 2 weeks ago

The same way the right still tell helicopter jokes, right? Fuck off.

[–] Carcharodonna@hexbear.net 20 points 2 weeks ago

Pretty sure that was just a crisis actor and not the real Charlie Kirk /s

[–] 30_to_50_Feral_PAWGs@hexbear.net 19 points 2 weeks ago

alex-no-supplements "We are ALL Charlie Kirk on this blessed day!"

kombucha-disgust "Speak for yourself."

When did Alex Jones start taking Ozempic and style himself to look like the most racist biker you’ve seen?

[–] nothx@hexbear.net 13 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm interested to see how the boys at Knowledge Fight cover this.

[–] ClathrateG@hexbear.net 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Dan: gives a detailed breakdown of what Alex says

Jordan: tries to make a 'joke' and libs things up

[–] Riffraffintheroom@hexbear.net 12 points 2 weeks ago

He looks healthier than usual but also way worse than usual.

That’s the Alex Jones crisis actor, Axel Tones

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 10 points 2 weeks ago

[–] Acute_Engles@hexbear.net 7 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Crying as he contemplates the reaction to his own obit.

[–] RNAi@hexbear.net 6 points 1 week ago

He looks both too pale and too pink, like the kind of pink you get by being too pale
