These are the thoughts of the man they are championing. He was not a good man. He was not even an average man. He was a wedge between you and your fellow Americans. We should all strive to live a life that actually brings us together as humans instead of ripping each other apart.

The list having an overlaid illustration of him getting murdered invalidates your entire post. That’s not intended to bring anybody together.
I don’t care whether someone agreed with his opinions, in large part I didn’t, but reveling in the assassination of a person over peaceful conversation is despicable.

Fuck that, you don’t cry when a weed is pulled from the garden. Sometimes a fucking cancer has to be excised

He didn’t actually say that, he was referring to Bible verse to prove another person’s selective quoting. I didn’t want to get into a discussion on specifics, so I deliberately touch on the points in the image - and I won’t do so any further.
If you are celebrate murder you are a disgusting person. I have nothing further to say on this matter.

Sure, but that’s not the dunk you think it is.
Another person being Ms. Rachel, who has continuously been targeted by the conservative media ecosystem extremist views like children in Gaza shouldn’t be killed.
Her “selective quoting” being Jesus’s statement that the most important commandment is to love your neighbor. Which he then goes on to refute a completely different verse.
Bringing nuance to the conversation is appreciated, but like a lot of Kirk’s shitty statements that have been popping up in the past week, the full context somehow makes it worse.
By the way, he did actually say that Jewish money was ruining our culture and loved throwing around the “cultural Marxism” white supremacist conspiracy theory.
By the way, he did say that Black women didn’t have the brain processing power to be taken seriously, and that they took the slot from a more qualified white person.
Those are the kinds of statements that embolden hate groups to take action, whether that’s knowingly enacting policy detrimental to targeted populations, or threats of violence or actual violence against the. What’s being celebrated is that he no longer has the means to spread his shitty messaging.

Hes conversations were not peaceful. They were propaganda pieces meant to sway right leaning individuals to note extremism. What does extremism beget? Violence. This is a reap what you sow moment. Learn from it.
