Gotta love how no information regarding the shooter is out. Yet we have dumbasses like this illegal immingrant here, making absolutes about it being a leftist.
I accidentally watched a few Asmongold videos since the TrumpStein thing hit.
He seems to have a huuuuge youtube following.
Today he released a video regarding this incident, all somber and rational for like 10 minutes about how both sides have to cool down their rhetoric etc. And then out of nowhere be goes all in on how dangerous and crazy the people on the left are and how it’s all their fault - for the next 7 mins.
Dude, did you forget what you yourself just said in this very same video?!
44000 comments at that point. 95% rightwing madness.
I knew something isn’t right with this guy and his followers but that was kinda shocking.
I guess all those school shooters, Trump assassins, hammer wielders, proud boys, SUV hit and runners, protest shooters, insurrectionists, and nazis are easy to forget /s
I’m not surprised. The dude is a fucking tool, and can’t comprehend ever being wrong.
Asmongold
Who?
World of warcraft streamer who has decided there is more money in streaming talking about politics
He tweeted this minutes after it happened. The right always does this, because it works. They seize the narrative early. It’s why a lot of people so easily forget the guys who tried to kill Trump were both on the right.
One of the few times the right was right!
No suspect, no motive, but there’s a bunch of people who really want this to be political.
The shooter is also EATING THE DOGS, THEY’RE EATING THE PETS!
Or some other bullshit.
Two Democratic senators were shot just a few months ago. One died.
But that’s okay and no cause for alarm.
- Also, no one knows who the shooter is or their motivations are.
- Also, "the left is a party… " is not aa statement that means anything in the US. They have far right and center right.
- Also Charlie Kirk both said “gun deaths is acceptable to protect the 2nd ammendment” and “I don’t beleive in empathy”
Is all hypocrisy and they’re just scared that they let the cat out of the bag. They pushed this rhetoric and were out and proud with their hate. Probably surprised they were getting away with it, and all of a sudden, they’re freaking out.
Says the party that [checks notes] locks up immigrants in “detention centers” with not enough food/medicine.
Even here, he’s literally calling for violence. In fact, I’ve seen a lot of the right calling for violence.
It’s all projection.
Which is crazy because we know nothing of the person who did the shooting. Who would they even target? (I know the answer to this, but I still think it’s a valid question.)
"From the assassination attempts of President Trump to Brian Thompson, the United Healthcare CEO, being murdered. Now to Charlie Kirk. The danger was actually on the Left.”
All the attempts on Trump have been disaffected Trump supporters. Brian Thompson’s killer, based on evidence at the scene, was apparently someone embittered over their treatment by his company and that can hardly be said to have been political. Kirk’s killer, whoever it is, is still at large and no motivation is known at this time. As far as I’m concerned, this is most likely another person on the right who’s pissed off about something the right has done or is doing.
This whole X-cresence is fundamentally flawed. Frankly, the homicidal maniacs are nearly all on the right as far as I can tell.
X-crement.
based on the comments I’ve seen from the right on his death, if I were putting money on a motivation, I’d say it’s that he got everyone riled up about the Epstien files, then made a sudden heel turn on “there’s nothing here”.
It’s only a matter of time until someone on the left does actually do something like this though. They will disingenuously seize on that opportunity to further their agenda as they always do. The kid who punches his bully gets suspended while the bully laughs and continues to terrorize others.
That being said, we already know that being in agreement with reality is not a requirement for Republicans to believe something. Facts don’t matter to them so don’t bother making factual appeals to them. Their goal is control and they will use any and all means at their disposal to achieve it, regardless of truth. Fight their control, not their arguments.
The left is not a party, dumass
The “left” is anyone who isn’t part of their cishet white supply-side-christian republican in-group.
The “radical left” is anyone that actively opposes their groups rampant political violence.
Remember when Trump suggested on national TV that “the second amendment people” should “do something” about Hillary Clinton?
These fuckers started that stupid game a long time ago. Now they’re winning the stupid prizes.
Palin said something to that effect almost a decade earlier shortly before a Dem legislator was assassinated. Stochastic terrorism is a tried-and-true part of their playbook.
CORRECT! It was The LEFT who Attempted to kill Trump and The Left who Assassinated Minnesota Politicians and The Left who is Killing Immigrants and The LEFT who is attacking Power Stations and the LEFT who Killed Charlie Kirk even Though his Killer wasn’t Caught and Nothing is KNown about HIM!
Which party extra-judiciously killed a handful of Venezuelan civilians on a tiny boat nowhere near US waters and also killed a bunch of fisherman because they botched a black op?
Elon Musk, the party of one. How’s Tesla, Elmo?
These pieces of shit celebrated murder after murder. No one cares what they think any more.
Yeah, mmmkay. Supposing we even know who shot Kirk and what the motive is, and they turn out to be a leftist and they shot Kirk for political reasons - that’s one instance.

It sounds like he is afraid for his own life.
I don’t support random killing of oligarchs.
You want an independent court to evaluate their crimes on principles of justice (so not an American court) and if their guilt is proven give them an option of 20 years live-in community service doing de-mining work or 40 years in prison. This is with full asset seizure (every last cent) and a requirement that all family members and business partners sign an affidavit stating that if they collaborated with hiding assets or anything else they get to do 20 years live-in community service (e.g. junior janitor at a refugee camp in Bangladesh) or 40 years prison.
That being said, the world has its own reality outside of American expectations and polemics. One can read history to see how things do actually work out.
Elon has been scared shitless since that CEO was murdered in NYC. He’s been carrying his human shield kid around with him everywhere and he’s got like 20 bodyguards with him at all times. Man knows nobody likes him.
I don’t support random killing of oligarchs.
What about systematic killing of oligarchs?
I generally oppose capital punishment, with possible exceptions for high treason (in times of war) or enabling mass deaths for personal benefits (no playing dumb).
My point is that full asset seizure and real multi-decade challenging community service work is a much better long term option.
You have to have a legal system willing to punish billionaires, not one beholden to them, for your point to work.
That doesn’t exist in the US, so it’s a moot point.
You believe in courts still‽
‘When the left kills a political enemy, it’s murder; when the right kills a political enemy, it’s an execution or act of God or something.’
Fascinating train of thought, choo-chooooo
Everyone on the right or left who makes such declarations should be shipped out to an island deep in the Atlantic, far, far away, with no internet and free assault rifles. Right gets an AR-15, left gets an AK-47.
Is he going to start wearing that baby around his neck again?
