i don’t cry for him. i really don’t feel anything for him because he didn’t feel anything for anyone else either. but i cry for his kids who witnessed that just like i cry for the kids who experience school shootings. in a perfect world he survived the shooting, and his views on gun laws changed and he could’ve advocated for more gun restrictions. but this isn’t a perfect world. he’s dead and in the end it was the same gun rights he advocated for that led to his untimely death.
we cry because of an innocent life being taken - a woman left widowed and two little children left without their dad. Each day basic empathy seems to become more and more foreign to society and it’s terrifying. I personally didn’t support him or his policies, but he didn’t deserve to die for exercising his first amendment right. The fact that humanity has deemed it okay to take the life of someone we don’t agree with shows how society has flown off the handle.
Snot nosed crying on the internet for a grown ass man who you've never even met when you don't care literally at all about the 7 year olds who just got shot and killed like a week ago is mental illness, it's not empathy. You have a weird parasocial relationship with that guy and you need to sort it
Also you don't even know anything about him lmao he does have "policies" he's not a politician, he's a social media influencer and he's not innocent. Nobody deserves to die over anything, he's just one among many, most of whom being children, who died in a school shooting which he himself said is justified because a few gun deaths every year is worth keeping gun rights as is. He is an example of what he advocated for. It is what it is
No, but I did shed some tears as a result of our society and what we’ve come to. Charlie Kirk had his life taken. So did Iryna Zarutska. And so did the students of Evergreen High School. So many families were ripped apart and lives were taken and changed in one day - you can always show love to all and respect a human life on this earth.
It’s not a shield. It’s saying a sane person can recognize that it’s still a person’s life that ended and that’s sad. Also not a republican I’m an independent cause I don’t think it’s smart to only follow a police party just to follow a political party. Only brings about blind hate for dumb reason
I think you're missing the point lol not crying over random people dying who you literally don't know is not the same thing as not having empathy. It has nothing to do with hate, but you definitely should not be expecting people you've dehumanized to have an emotional response just because you're a human
Nope not missing the point at all actually. It also has a lot to do with hate. We are in a politically cesspool that people only care about being right and better than the other person. We are so focused on that, and we’ve lost the ability to find common ground and recognize we are human beings. What happened is a prime example of using violence instead of words.
Saying executions should be public and children should watch is violent. Saying gun deaths are necessary and rational is violent. Promoting war crimes and death without trial is violent. Things aren't magically kind and civil just because you weren't the one who killed people, it's still violent
