Which is worse ...

Which is worse, examples of celebrating over Kirk's murder or acts of indifference?

For my money, it's the latter. Those who celebrate a murder of this kind do more than an effective job of declaring themselves as idiots. They almost don't need condemnation because their own actions make their low character manifest. Not to turn this into a Trump thread, and it's not exactly the same thing, but I didn't need anyone to convince me that Trump was, morally, a piece of shit once I heard is comments dismissing John McCain's time as a prisoner of war. Such actions are self-defining.

The apathy over Kirk's murder is, IMO, a bit more troubling. It really does demonstrate a mindset that puts politics over basic human rights, and it's not just coming from our society's fringe. And that is no small concern.

If I go back in those threads am I going to find you condemning this as well?...

You really ought to stop lying.

Lying? Prove it then. You can accuse me all day but until you can prove I'm lying, you're just tossing out unfounded accusations.

Political crimes have a chilling effect on society, even more so than other tragic murders. It's why, for example, Floyd being murdered by a cop is a different thing than had Floyd been murdered by another thug.

Are you claiming Floyd's murder was political? I've never heard that angle.

The cop who murdered Floyd was the thug.

Cops are the government.

Your view is warped, but you're entitled to it.

Your skills at analogy need work.

Sure, you made this statement "According to your response, the only time we can see you not being apathetic is in this very thread, which means you were apathetic before."

I have never said this thread is the "only time." I said a time was in this thread.

Prove me wrong or be proven to have lied.

Sorry if you accuse me of something, you are the one who has to prove I lied. You have refused multiple times to show where you haven't been apathetic before this thread. I tried to find where you showed empathy prior to this and I came up empty. That is all I have to work with since you are not willing to back your own claims. So you calling me a liar is baseless.

Y'all ever tire of building straw-men?

It wasn't a straw man. Kirk went around showing apathy for dead kids, school shootings are an acceptable act for the preservation of the 2nd. Yes? He called empathy destructive and isn't the only one one MAGA to make the claim.

When the Democrat lawmaker was killed, MAGA went right into CT mode to try to spin who the shooter was. How many people were empathetic then? Where was your thread then?

MAGA wants to treats others one way, but then has the gall to demand we treat them differently and to higher standards than they're willing to treat non-MAGAs.

To treat Kirk as he's treated others, one might say that while dead school kids are just the price of the 2nd, dead MAGA trolls are just the price of the 1st.

Not such a nice thing to say, huh? But that's the level of empathy and respect MAGA wants to treat others with. They're not all of a sudden victims when they don't get the empathy they refuse to give to others.

Your posts are often hateful. Does that lessen the value of your life?

I never claimed Kirk's life had no value, so that is a miss on your part. He was a father and husband with young children.
I hate only what should be hated by any true American: violations of the U.S. Constitution, open criminality in government, violations of sworn duty, and oaths of office. All of which is common practice for the first time to this degree in the nations history in the Trump "administration" and his cuck Congress.
