I'm sick of the Charlie Kirk "martyr for freedom" crap!

Charlie Kirk spent his life spreading hate disguised as debate. His very last words were hateful. He is not a martyr nor a great loss. I care the same amount that he was shot as he cared when children in schools were shot. He said it was worth it. So he took the bullet for “freedom”.

Also the alleged shooter wasn’t “radicalized”. He grew up in a hard core MAGA gun humping culture that worshipped guns and probably struggled with being gay and knowing his family would disfellowship him and disapprove.

THAT is the thing the right refuses to see. If anything, that trauma is what made him take out his pain on a man who was out there every day of his life spreading hate toward gay people.

That’s what “radicalized” him.

Think about it.

1. His reasons for terminating his franchise with extreme prejudice were not purely Groyper

But IMHO the reason he was on his radar was Groyperism.

I mean, when it comes to right wing blowhards, the Passion of the Kirk was pretty lame.

2. I think the OP is about two different people. There seems to be a shift between 1st & 2nd paragraphs

First paragraph is about Kirk. As is the title.

The rest seems to be about the shooter, though the "he" can only refer to the only person named.

It might be best to edit the OP for clarity.
