The 'left' doesn't worship politicians like gods. I would honestly be indifferent if 90% of the Democratic establishment got wiped out.

The fact that they're frothing at the mouth without any actual evidence of the shooters ideology is all you need to know about their intentions.

[–] FabledAepitaph@lemmy.world 38 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Right? That guy needs to chill out. Charlie Kirk was worth no more, and probably even less, than any of the other hundreds of people that die any and every day from gun violence. People on the Right have literally just discovered what America is all about, I guess?

lol

Definitely wasn't as much of a tragedy as the kids who died the same day in Colorado.

Wasn't the Reichstag fire a false flag?

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 75 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Yeah, Nazis burned it and blamed the Jews, then used it as an excuse to start rounding them up.

[–] JohnSwanFromTheLough@lemmy.world 43 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They blamed the communists for the fire.

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 7 points 1 week ago

You're right, my bad !

Short answer: Yes

But we live in a time where history is rewritten daily. Hitler was a socialist - bullshit for example.

[–] neukenindekeuken@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 week ago (1 children)

People were also conflating Hitler as a socialist then.

The whole point of that was to discredit actual socialism. It wasn't socialism to them, but a dog whistle for nationalism.

It would have been more accurate to call that the National nationalist party.

[–] piccolo@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Hitler was a socialist... so as long you were wealthy, ayran, and loyal. Eveyone else got brutal totalitarism and capitalism while fed to a war machine to keep the lie going.

Go ahead and ban the party. We'll make a new one. Name it the FUCK CHARLIE KIRK Party.

[–] mcbenavides85@piefed.social 51 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Kirk WAS left leaning when he died.

Holy shit that's fucking brutal

Did trump have kirk assassinated to distract from the epstein shit? As they always say on the right, I'm just asking questions...

[–] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't think Trump, personally, has the stomach to actually order someone killed. He likes to hint around that if something bad happens to people he doesn't like, well that would be unfortunate wink wink but I think he's too spineless to actually order a hit. Now Nosferatu and his ilk on the other hand . . .

They are so fucking stupid. They don’t understand what the historical events mean. They don’t understand who the villain is in Star Wars. It’s all fucking bizarro world in their minds.

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

StarWars is fucked. You have the religious extremists known as "Jedi". They travel around, engaging in galaxy wide human trafficking and kidnapping.

So they can get their hands on kids and start training them as child soldiers to create obedient, dogmatic super soldiers.

I'm not saying they're the only villains. But they are definatly not the "good guys"

[–] Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The real trick to Star wars is knowing every side is evil.

Just ones realistically evil and the other is cartoonishly evil.

[–] lime@feddit.nu 6 points 1 week ago

idk man the past ten years have really given me new limits on what counts as "cartoonish"

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 5 points 1 week ago

THEY THINK they are punisher, and superman.

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 34 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I didn't even realize the right new what stochastic terrorism was. If they did I assumed they wouldn't talk about it considering how often they engage in it

Most of them are christians they are well versed in hypocrisy.

[–] KeavesSharpi@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 week ago

I didn’t even realize the right new what stochastic terrorism was.

Obviously considering the context, they don't. An assassination isn't stochastic terrorism, and nobody on the left is calling for violence. That's them. So the accusation is a confession in this case. This post is literally stochastic terrorism, and a call for violence.

[–] Lasherz12@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Ironic that this very statement from them contains a hefty handful of it.

I don't think anyone is afraid of Meal Team Six.

[–] Bonesince1997@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago

Those J6 "rioters" were some dumb motherfuckers. Too bad they got a gift of little to no punishment. In fact, I think the shooter was one of them, that was let out by Trump (not really, but that'd be something). Soft on crime, hard on minorities Trump.

You know my high ass thought of something.

There’s a loneliness epidemic and at the same time the biggest spread of hatred I have ever seen in my lifetime.

A bunch of men feel sad, alone, and hatred. That makes me sad.

All while being conned by the billionaire class.

Classic abusive "look at what you made me do!" rhetoric.

I also think that wanting to kill half the population is a bit of an overreaction. Especially so, since they're already ahead in the kill count.

[–] calliope@retrolemmy.com 11 points 1 week ago

Matt Forney is already a well-known Nazi. He has his own ADL entry.

[–] Chivera@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Since it turned out it was a Republican that killed him. Are they gonna do the same now?

Honor Charlie Krik by doing what he requested - RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

So they’re basically admitting they’re Nazis looking for a reason to genocide liberals

[–] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

I mean they were mask-off when they tried to lynch politicians and storm the seat of government.

So they’re admitting they’re the NAZIS and will use the shooting as a false flag to attack the left even knowing that the shooter came from a MAGA family and was probably a right winger himself?

[–] ImgurRefugee114@reddthat.com 6 points 1 week ago

for people who dont like being called nazis, they sure talk a lot of nazi shit... (no surprise... but... idk, I'm saying it like it's a revelation for nostalgia sake I guess)

[–] xc2215x@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Why would the Reichstag fire and the Night of Long Knives be where you go first??

do these people know what RICO is? kirk was also on about files, trump cant have one of thier major propaganda talking heads , speaking the contrary

[–] guy@piefed.social 5 points 1 week ago

The same Reichstag fire which is unclear if the Nazis did or otherwise?

[–] QueenHawlSera@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago

I'm legitimately scared of what the Right's going to do now that Charlie Kirk's death has kicked their ant hill
