A family just lost a husband and father...and people are celebrating?

Those people are so vile and full of so much evil. I rolled my eyes at Charlie declaring that Taylor had to submit to her future husband, and I think sometimes Charlie was kind of overly sarcastic when it wasn't warranted. But gosh, imagine his oldest kid seeing these despicable people cheering her daddy's death. Sick. America needs healing. Imagine your own life is so worthless and meaningless, your day is brightened by a man's death.

"and I don't care what your politics are..." say so many youtubers

guess what. I do fucking care. Because there are a lot of people currently in power who do base their political identity on violently oppressing some people while enriching their masters. By now, after all this fucking time, it has become pretty clear what certain political parties in the US stands for (or more accurately, against)

so yes. yes I do fucking care what your "politics" are. and my god what a comfortable position the speaker must be to be so protected against the violence of American politics.

US conservatives villifying anyone to the left of them for being snarky or petty is proof that they know what they're doing is bad, they just think they should get special privileges for being bigoted, fascist, assholes.

it's like reprimanding a child who is doing something they know they shouldn't be doing. and this is from the party that likes to think they're pragmatic.

Every time I hear the phrases "Ukraine is not our responsibility" "Don't poke the bear" etc A Certain Type of Person comes to mind.Y'all know who I'm talking about:

If this, then usually also this:

(as very helpfully illustrated by @ standupfight73 )

Waaah waaah America First! Liberty! Freedom of the people! By freedom I mean I'll have all the guns, no taxes, permission to lynch immigrants and gay people on the street, and freedom to die of and spread fully preventable diseases because I refuse to get vaccinated! I saw a rainbow in the sky yesterday, I am being oppressed here, why doesn't anyone care?😭🇺🇲

Giant self-centred ill-mannered toddlers is what they are🙄 No wonder they have and tankies agree on the same Russian propaganda, they have much in common in terms of critical thinking skills. Just change a couple of buzzwords and flags and they'll believe exactly the same stupid shit.🧲

Wish they'd kept it to themselves, I don't want to be scrolling through 20 idiotic posts like this every time I look in the Ukraine tag.

Conservatives on reddit and the Babylon Bee have currently decided to be very cool about losing the election and their 4chan counterparts acting like assholes and have decided that their current defense is "we never really wanted to die on this hill anyway, actually."

Also in this thread and others: a conspiracy that Biden will step down part way through the presidency so that Harris, who they seem to dislike more, will be president

This TPUSA nonsense going around brings to mind how the Right, who invented “Free Speech Zones” under Shrub, only ever got on this “safe spaces” kick because... Conservatives were getting protested and asked hostile questions when giving paid talks at colleges. Oh, and because they didn’t like college professors disagreeing with conservative students on anything.

Anyway my point is, while there’s nothing more philosophically appropriate than a bunch of Conservatives -especially college-aged Republicans- dressing up like infants, folks shouldn’t take their kinks out in public. Consent is sexy my friends.

Anon Hate about Charlie Kirk

The people who hate Charlie Kirk for being an awful person according to their standards who sent me those hateful anons are no better than the image of man they hate.

So because you think Charlie is a terrible person, that gives you the right to be a terrible person to me, someone you have never even met in your life? Bunch of lowlives. Look in the mirror before you spread your hate to other people. I am entitled to post properly tagged posts on my own blog. If you disagree, then block me or scroll on by. If I dislike someone's views, I stay away from their blog. Simple as that. Your life must be quite empty if you are so triggered over one post calling out vile behaviour from self righteous people. Charlie's body wasn't even cold before people started popping wine and celebrating.

Even if you hate him, at least have some compassion for his young children and wife who violently have lost a loved one. The fact that people sent me messages saying his daughter is better off with him dead is horrific because I know the pain of losing a father. Even years later, I still miss him sometimes. Imagine one of these people telling this to his daughter one day. All of you are disgusting and I am blocking anyone including people I follow who don't have decency to have some basic human empathy.

You are willing to have empathy for grown men who are thugs abusing women and children but not a prominent activist who has different views? I don't think I would see this kind of atrocious behavior if a political figure died back home in Jamaica, a third world country.

William Regnery II

So Here’s A Link to a Buzzfeed story about the guy who funds US white supremacy. Coincidentally, it’s also a story about the ties between white supremacists, Conservative “thinkers” and policy-making, the Republican Party, and the anti-tax movement. I haven’t read it all, it’s pretty long, but just the first half is pretty informative. Linking because buzzfeed’s tumblr blog doesn’t have the story up(that I can find), and because tumblr, for whatever reason, makes it next to impossible to crosspost to it from other sites, so buzzfeed’s “share on tumblr” option doesn’t work.
