I’m sorry for his death. I disagreed with most of his points, I’m not event from the USA, but I hate seeing people celebrating the assassination of someone. What a fucked up world.

[–] FenderStratocaster@lemmy.world 6 points 2 hours ago

I'm not celebrating. I just have no remorse.

[–] chetradley@lemmy.world 4 points 1 hour ago

He gets the same sympathy from me that he gave to other shooting victims, trans people and immigrants.

As much as I disagreed with him, I don’t remember Kirk killing millions, building concentration camps, starving people to death.

Don't pretend he wouldn't have gleefully participated in that. He was an ardent trump supporter, and thus an ardent supporter of concentration camps.

Hitler didn't kill anyone either (besides himself)

Would you be sorry if Putin were killed like this?

What about Mussolini?

[–] Brumefey@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Whataboutism. As much as I disagreed with him, I don’t remember Kirk being a dictator, invading countries, killing his opponents, etc. Remember the last time Mussolini and Putin were debating with public in « prove me wrong » mode ? No. Because it did not happen.

what about kirk knowingly helping fascists come into power that killed countless people with their vaccine shit and deported hundrets of people into camps they'll never leave again.

[–] Brumefey@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago

Everyone who voted for Trump helped him to come into power. Is it ok to assassinate every trump voter ?
