I saw it unintentionally and it was horrifying. It's always horrifying to see such a thing, no matter who it is.

Yep. I've already said this like three times on other platforms: it's ok to be happy about this. He gave you permission. Twice, actually. The "it's worth sacrificing a person every now and then if it means we get to have guns" and this empathy thing.

This is maybe the only time it's ok to be happy someone died.

I wonder if we will get a new wave of users as reddit has another ban wave for people laughing at this cunts neck exploding.

The problem with this is that it will be used to increase violence against non-white cis males.

I see your point, but Asimov was born in 1920 and Foundation, arguably his greatest work, came out in 1951 when he was 31, the same age numbnuts was. "Barely out of highschool" just doesn't apply and frankly feels like a disingenuous attempt to disparage youth. Age unfortunately has very little to do with stupid opinions.

are still feeling empathy for tolerant people outside their groups

Apparently they are not, as exemplified by celebration of violence here, and the dislike for those arguing against violence. They feel empathy for the intolerant only, and dislike the emphatic.

The fascist chose to break the peace treaty and so they are no longer protected by it.

Neither are the people celebrating here, according to this logic. See the issue?

Now tolerant people have to work together with people outside their groups

Exactly, they should! What they're doing instead is using violence on people outside their in-group - the self-proclaimed tolerant are the intolerant just of a different tribe.

They're them, we're we, we're better is what you're describing and is parochial empathy.

Charlie Kirk co-founded TP USA in 2012 with a tea party activist when he was 18, the day after he graduated from high school. He also wrote an article for breitbart and appeared on fox news in his senior year of highschool. I believe that's probably what the OP is referring to.

If you shoot politicians and billionaires instead of kids they might finally care about gun violence in the US.

So when does he start exterminating the Jews?

Edit: he literally cant be a nazi. He's a sionist.

Apparently they are not

Charlie Kirk wasn't empathetic himself. Literally look at the posted quote by OP. He was not a tolerant person, but intolerant of others.

Neither are the people celebrating here

The people on social media reacting to Charlie Kirk's demise are not calling for violence towards each other. They are acting in unison, setting aside the MSM, and celebrating the death of a political influencer with destructive ideals. We The People are consistent in our peace treaty, for we all know Charlie violated it well before now.

What they're doing instead is using violence

I'm sorry, are social media posts violence now? Are social media posts the same as a bullet to the neck? Are celebrations of death the same as calling for it? Can we not take pleasure in knowing vile, evil people have perished and can no longer spread their destructive ideals that will lead to pain and suffering of others?

They're them, we're we, we're better is what you're describing and is parochial empathy.

The test is empathy, man. Empathy is the gateway into breaking down racist and sexist walls and realizing that we all have more in common that in difference. Charlie actively advocated against that, reinforcing stereotypes and charging up the fascist belief of "the other".

Like the Germans they are starting with the homeless and disabled. In this case the Latino community is being targeted in the same way as the Jewish community was in Germany.

This is maybe the only time it’s ok to be happy someone died.

There was also that one guy who shot himself in an underground bunker in Berlin. Gun violence and suicide are never OK but sometimes they are.

Lmao like they aren't already cheering about people getting deported. Get fucked.

He was a cunt and bled out like one. Fuck him. Just because he's dead doesn't mean he deserves respect. He gets the same respect he gave towards women. Fucking none.

I'm not really celebrating it, but I won't lose any sleep over it.

Wow, so wise. I always wanted to be slowly, yet methodically killed by right wingers without any fight-back.

OK white knight, leave the party if you don't like it or call the cops whatever.
