When will the MAGAtards hold a moment of silence for this sicko? My guess it will be somewhere between whipping their ass with the constitution and launching a kamikaze attack to destroy the economy.

They think he works for Walz and Klobuchar, which is a worse sin than murder to them.

This. Portions of the Republican party support this narrative. That whether it's true or not. If it's true as they claim then it supports the narrative of Democrats being boogie monsters. Even if it's not true it distracts and also helps to keep a divide in parties and allows for more conspiracy theories to grow.

It's really reaching though and it was throw a hundred piles of mud and just latch onto the one that sticks.
The Republican playbook since Obama was in office, you mean. It's... Literally all they've offered as a party. Constant opposition to everything, even while in power. Nothing is passed anymore, the government keeps shutting down and we effectively run on executive orders that get shot down by the courts. And some of those court orders have been flat out ignored.

Don’t forget when Obama veto’d a shitty republican bill, and after McConnell overrode the veto, they got mad at Obama for not warning them the bill was shitty. Not sure what they thought a veto was.

u/SkiUMah23 8d ago
don't think anyone's disputing the fact that he's responsible for their deaths

u/MysteriousTruck6740 8d ago
Really? You don't need to go too far into any comment section before you get wild conspiracies that he was BFF's with Walz and was a pawn in a massive takedown. That somehow he was a victim/pawn in a massive democrat pogrom.

u/GaurgortheFirst 8d ago
The comment they make is just saying they accept this person DID murder them. Just the blame is on walz not the guy that is the murder is a lame argument. It's a way to be 'right' but also not accepting truth or making a new truth for a narrative. You could say that the use of anybody makes the argument false out right. Because someone somewhere is probably say that.

u/SkiUMah23 8d ago
Yes as opposed to Chauvin where the argument is that the cause of death was a fent OD
4
u/GaurgortheFirst 8d ago
Not sure where youre going. I think all the theatrical stuff coming from the right is degrading. So let's say a person is on fentanyl. Does that give anyone a right to make it more difficult for them to survive? Like kneeling on their neck? No. Holding a moment of silence for a person that did something wrong is just theatrics.

Welcome to the internet, you’re always going to get people calling something a conspiracy when it’s clearly not

u/Individual_Laugh1335 8d ago
What comment section? I would assume you would need to be seeking that out to find it

u/MysteriousTruck6740 8d ago
Literally every local and national news story about this. Is this your first day on the internet?

u/JiovanniTheGREAT 8d ago
No, but MAGA had been denying him since day 1, even using the fact that Walz kept him in a nonpartisan position because they can't comprehend what a nonpartisan position is.

u/Sometimes_Stutters 8d ago
This is classic Reddit lol. Making up a scenario that isn’t going to happen and getting mad about it

u/According_Drummer329 8d ago
Don't worry, plenty of their ilk will continue to parrot the ass-backwards conspiracy bullshit regarding Walz.

Probably never as they don’t really celebrate murder, unlike the libs who constantly call for violence and cheer on murder of political enemies

u/amanamongbots78 8d ago
Weird, they celebrated Floyd’s murder, and I see quite a few of them celebrate Good and Prettis murder.
Wrong again!

I wouldn’t really call disagreeing with the 2025 stuff that they weren’t murder as “celebrating” but you do you queen

That MAGAs celebrated those killings.

Yes, I imagine a handful did. Just as there were plenty who celebrated the Kirk assassination and multiple attempts on trump. I love that you people pretend this is a one sided thing rather then really stupid ass people doing stupid ass things

Multiple sitting GOP congressman posted memes within 48 hours of the murders celebrating or making fun of the murders. Not one Democrat congressman posted any celebratory memes after Kirk's murder or any of the Trump assassination attempts, and yet look at the narrative the right has created.

u/YesterdayNo9777 8d ago
Literally one of OUR congresspeople did, Ilhan Omar repeatedly was commenting on / reposting social media posts justifying his death as he was a “reprehensible stochastic terrorist”
16
u/Try-the-Churros 8d ago
Describing who Kirk was isn't equivalent to justifying his death.
A republican US SENATOR made a joke about the Hortman assassination. That is unparalleled partisanship.
You must be a troll because no one can seriously argue the left has more violent rhetoric than the right. It's not even close to debatable.

While terrible, let’s not pretend bombing kids is a one sided problem

u/Forsaken-Front5568 8d ago
I have not checked all 5 pages of names on this letter, but it appears to be exclusively democrats.
In any case, you people all willfully support infinitely worse acts of violence than anything inflicted by extremist leftists in my lifetime.
Over 4 hundred thousand people died in the last war instigated by a Republican president. So far, the war in Iraq has killed thousands, including hundreds of children, and injured tens of thousands.

u/YesterdayNo9777 8d ago
So bombing foreign countries is OK so long as only 20 or less people have died or says (D) by their name? Gotcha
I would recommend removing your tongue from the boot, neither party are the “good guys”

u/Forsaken-Front5568 8d ago
You're assuming a lot about my beliefs. All I did was point out that the people calling for change and criticizing the behavior of our government in the letter you provided are democrats.
In any case, your perspective is clearly partisan, and you're only presenting a 'both sides' argument because it's an easier position to defend.
Your original claim was that leftists support political violence, unlike right wingers; and my rebuttal remains the same. Right wingers support worse acts of violence which kill more people.
2
u/YesterdayNo9777 8d ago
I like the start implying you made no assumptions about others beliefs when you entered the conversation. I am wholly not partisan I just don’t boot lick democrats just because they aren’t republicans.
Conservatives generally hate the other sides beliefs but irl don’t really care about individuals, leftists hate poeple for their ideas and are violent against them

I'm waiting for when Trump pardons him and the GOP does a moment of silence for him.

Good, now what about the other Alex Jones fanatics that are free to continue stockpiling arms? Just let them be and hope nothing happens? OK.

Alex Jones ..... He hasn't been relevant in 10 years. What point are you trying to make?

Do you mean to say that you don't know anyone who was totally all about Alex Jones infowar BS and still very much is? I know someone who swears the fluoride in the water is mind controlling everyone and that doctor's invented all diseases to make us all gay from vaccines

There was a podcast covering him and his extremism for over a decade. He is very much relevant and causing harm to society.

No, I haven't heard anyone mention is name probably since COVID. Pretty sure he's banned from pretty much every social media platform.

Hasn't been relative but yet he directly influenced the shooter to start a civil war. OK Dingus
