  1. People are losing their jobs because they’re sick freaks reveling in Kirk’s death. FIFY

  2. Kirk was a pathetic sack of human garbage. He made millions off spreading hate and lies. He made the bed he’s sleeping in now, and the world is a better place for it.

  6. Bottom line: Charlie Kirk was a hater. He spent his life mocking and insulting people. Those he targeted are under no obligation to mourn him. It’s perfectly human to feel a sense of relief; maybe even to crack a little smile, knowing the world now carries one less voice of hate..

  11. What about the people who are blaming the radical leftists and are saying they are going to commit violent acts against them? They get a free pass

  12. You can’t insult a right wing douchebag. They have already proven when it’s a Democrat you can insult and laugh at them with no repercussions. But not when it’s one of if they’re guys.

  13. “Suddenly, however, a MAGA coalition that has long insisted on their right to demonize and threaten marginalized communities, joke and fantasize about violent attacks on their enemies, and push conspiracy theories to justify an authoritarian agenda is outraged that other Americans would dare to voice their contempt for a slain hero of reactionary conservatism.” 👈🏼

  14. That’s good. I expect that when a right wing cult member violently attacks someone on the left, every person immediately lose their job for making fun of it. Oh. Wait. Sorry. Who are we kidding?

  15. They should sue. You have first amendment rights. They also might want to look at their rightwing colleagues’ internet history talking about stuff, because often the hypocrisy is swift.

  16. Free speech? Oh yea guess that’s out the window as well

  17. This is the kind of double standard for the left vs the right which has been weaponized by the right. We are seeing the results of it with the nation (and other nations as well) shifting not just to the right, but to some very ugly things (I mean c’mon–they are supporting an obvious pedophile and rapist who attempted a coup on live TV for God’s sake.)

  18. Not even criticizing. Stating facts. Violence is wrong. He advocated for violence. Should we be surprised when it happens?

  20. Yet republicans can say stuff like this and still in our government. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna171385

  21. Any employer who does this needs to be sued out of business. (Including MSNBC)

  23. Wrongful termination. How many of these employers and institutions have a legal council that will advise them not to settle? All the legal councils that I know always advise to settle nowadays even if the plaintiff is entirely wrong. It’s just not worth it to go to court.
