They fired him for that? What did he have to do to keep his job in that situation, pull out Kirk's corpse and fellate it? A fascist got what he spent his life working to deserve. It's the crowning achievement of his life work to build a stochastically terrorized society that can be bent to the whim of billionaires and autocrats. There's no need to pussyfoot around like this is a national tragedy unless you are more interested in upholding the status quo than you are in reporting. Oh. Right...

There was a school shooting yesterday and we're supposed to feel bad about a fascist?

Fascist propagana channel Fox will run 800 stories about the nazi getting a long distance neck piercing, but will never, ever show the school shooting.

They don't expect you to feel anything, since you have a brain.

They expect their followers to follow their very plainly stated and very often repeated fictional stories. They know exactly what bullshit they can sell and what they can't, because they monitor it all day long. Every day. It's their job, and their billionaire overlord demands results.

You're not the target audience of their bullshit.
