          I am going to take a weeks vacation to travel … then stop at his grave and piss on it. To avoid indecent exposure charges I will piss in a bottle and pour it out on the grave. It has been that planned out.

            I’m gonna buy a flag pole and let Ol’ Glory fly at full mast for the whole time she’s ordered to half.

            And then I’m going to take it down, only to be seen for special occasions, as the line between patriotism and nationalism is too fucking thin these days.

    How’s that martyrdom going? I rarely hear folks talk about this grifter anymore. Good riddance. I’m just glad he’s not here to change his stance on war with Iran.

        Sure it’s always good to point out that a person held absolutely trash views, horrible at debating anyone that was serious, and was a objectively horrible human being.

        You always need to talk about a person like that as a model for how not to be a good person to help ensure future generations don’t end up to be racist, intellectually dishonest, grifting trash adults.

      Available evidence suggests he was probably on the left as he apparently killed him over trans rights. But the killer left very little clear information about his political views–if he had any beyond opposing bigotry.

        Wasn’t he a groper who disliked him because of his pro Israel stance?

        The fact we haven’t heard anything else from him kind of cements that as well as the current fbi would clearly politicize it if they could

          I’ve seen no evidence he was a groyper. There were rumors of that but I’m unsure what they were based on.

          Like I said, he just really didn’t say much about his politics publicly.

            I believe the groyper accusations were based on unsubstantiated reports of slogans written on bullets, but like you said, idk about actual evidence. Given the two loudest theories being he was either a fascist or an anarchist, he was probably a centrist.

      The alleged shooter has been quiet since being arrested. The investigation was also garbage.

          Yeah. I get that. Especially his last words. But I’m wondering if this is a reference to his shirt? Or just the whole situation.

              He is free from the shackles of being a conservative grifter. Free from the shackles of having to maintain that front.

                he also freed his wife, it seems

                in some ways, his martyrdom is the best possible outcome for his movement - esp. since in the end it looks like he was killed by someone radicalized in association with trans rights

            yeah, exactly - but yeah, I don’t know if the visual irony is just that his shirt says “freedom” and is covered in blood - maybe the price of his precious freedom was his death, etc.

      I honestly don’t even understand why he has a memorial. He was just some guy. I said the same thing when Trump ordered flags at half staff for him.

      Let’s put aside his politics for a moment.

      Kirk wasn’t elected. He didn’t hold any political office. Literally just a random person who was killed.

      What he was known for was spewing hate, and then his own blood.

      It’s because you are a good person or at least violence averse. Plenty of folks are, there’s nothing to be ashamed of in that fact.

      Personally I don’t get it. I see these fascistic pissants and my hand twitches, my mind hazes, and I hear the call of my ancestors and gods. I want to taste violence more now than ever, I want to go out like John Brown or his sons. But I have to restrain myself just as my ancestors have since civilization came westward and our savagery became inconvenient. But I shall restrain for now is not yet the time.

      The sign of wisdom is to know ones own limits and to act accordingly. You should separate thin self from violence if it upsets you so.
