That kirk loser was as much a waste of space in life as his filthy rotting 'nearly-headless' corpse is in death. Good riddance.

im betting if shapiro died, would they do the same as kirk.

This is literally what the first amendment is for.

This is literally why our government is no longer legitimate

Your government was happily segregating people based on color of their skin until 4 decades ago. Killing farmers in Vietnam for fun. Killing people in middle east with false rhetoric. War crimes being ignored like they don't matter. Destroying democracies abroad to place a puppet in multiple countries. Directly financing and supporting a genocide since Biden.

But yea, poor jimmy really showed you the governments real face.

Have some fucking humility.

they are sitll segregating people based on color, it just more subtle in some areas, but in super red states they still do.

Dear Representative Higgins,

Respectfully eat a whole bag of dicks.

Signed

Your Mom, bitch.

I invite anyone who wants to restrict my first amendment rights to enthusiastically fuck themselves with the business end of a rusty rake.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

The only truly appropriate response.

Does this include his own words? Because apparently just repeating what he routinely said in his speaking appearances is now an attack on him. Which is bizarre.

They turned his free speech into hate speech, so don't play that game with the followers of the cult.

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 7 points 2 days ago

It was already both, but I get your point.

The reasonable restriction of public statements that lie far beyond the standards of our own society is not an oppression of free speech, it is, rather, the protection of free speech.

War is peace.

They've corrupted the tolerance paradox and made the left intolerant for trying to not tolerate intolerance :|

That doesn't merely hint at 1984, it is right on the fucking money.

They’re not just censoring people for celebrating Kirk’s death.

They’re censoring people who, while in no way celebrating Kirk’s death, are stating literal facts about Kirk’s publicly stated opinions.

Nuance is not allowed.

[–] FauxLiving@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

I’m sorry, I can’t hear you over the sound of Fox News suggesting involuntary euthanasia or “just kill ‘em” for homeless Americans

Dear Mr. Higgins:

Attached is a letter that we received on September 15, 2025. I feel that you should be aware that some asshole is signing your name to stupid letters.

Very truly yours,

Some Internet User
