Unfortunately, I'm angry too, and I watched it live in real-time, zooms and blood included...
I'm in favor of not hiding the close-up zoom (spare the kids obviously). People need to see what humans are really able to do, if they don't see the flesh they don't understand...
If they don't get it even after seeing how quick a life can end for no reason, then they should be thrown in the trash compactor, really...
Luckily Elon Musk bought twitter otherwise we would've seen just half of the story. And heard half of the voices... just the crazy ones...
I saw screens from Bluesky (I refuse to have an account there) and it was a cesspool in these two days... (i mean it's always like that but hey!)
What I've learnt these days, I was in the EU while this happened, is that the EU is a very dangerous place nowadays.
In the US, at least you can express your disapproval toward a murderer and find comfort among hundreds of other people. It is not a shame these days to say you're somehow right wing, compared to what it was in past.
You can write their employer and they will fire their lunatics employees for their violent social media posts, as it's happening right now (the irony, a country with so much freedom as the first amendment has more decency than many EU democracies).
In the EU today, if you do write similar, which should be obvious (e.g. you can't kill just for a different opinion), everyone turns against you.
In the US people are more individualistic, once you tell someone to fuck off you part ways and ends there... in EU they will write to friends and friends to ruin your reputation by telling lies. They don't go for the 1vs1, they plan how to ambush you...
They start blaming the gun and not the shooter, as he's one of theirs...
They immediately label you as far-right, and it feels like you're the terrorist... while they are justifying a murderer.
This almost made me want to go back to the US in the future... but then, after two days of anger, one remembers that's a game orchestrated by people higher up, and these are just useful idiots.
My honor would make me go to war and fight... and I think about it almost every day.
Yes it pisses me off that much. Mainly when I see a cowardly murder like this...
I mean if you want to fight me cause you disagree with my words, at least come close, let's fight face to face. It's too easy to snipe a shot, run like a coward and ruin a family that way just for a different opinion.
But in the end I know it's not worth the fight, because if you start a war you must take it to the end in full, else:
you're the only one who has to lose versus a million of brainwashed zombies who don't understand the value of life, and often have nothing to lose cause they aren't capable of building anything worthwhile in their life.
I mean you see the fired employees on x now... yesterday they posted angry posts about kirk's death, then when their bosses fired them for that, they posted videos of themselves crying like kids on their social media... I mean adult people... bunch of pussies that aren't used to take responsibility for their actions.
Even Stephen King had to apologize, after sharing false info about Charlie Kirk (but of course he first throws the shitstorm, then apologizes when it's too late...):
But if you read EU newspapers, they are still saying wrong info and not planning to apologize or remove the false info anytime soon.
You know, they take bits of phrases out of context and frame the meaning of it as they wish and feed the beast.
The other thing that worries me is that in the US at least you can usually spot the weirdos right away just by looking at them (if you know, you know).
In Europe, it's harder to recognize them at a glance, even though the trends are starting to show up there too.
I can do it, and I've learned how... but sometimes you meet these people who, after five minutes of talking, will tell you they'd kill Charlie Kirk themselves, with an absurdly straight face, without even knowing who they're talking to. Maybe people you knew, and you think what happened to them?
I mean you understand they are pussies and couldn't kill a mosquito in a fight, but these are the kind of people that kill cowardly...
they would stab you in the back or snipe from a safe location and run away... as this killer did.
There's something going in their head when they can't outsmart you, they don't think to improve their game, learning etc.
They know it all, and can't be wrong and will not admit they're wrong.
So they must eliminate the source of the issue = YOU!
These people hold positions of power in institutions, both locally up to the EU parl., schools/universities, healthcare. There are many of them.
The problem is that when you try to reason with them, after a few minutes you make their brain crash, with their contradictions, they lose their self control and are capable of causing serious harm... they're really mentally unstable people when you question them something just a little out of their line.
And the best part is that they go around telling everyone they're proud to be 'democrats'...
It is not a dem vs rep, left vs right thing what I really mean... there are violent brainwashed on the right too obviously.
But the whole antifa movements these days, some social networks, there's groups that are recruiting these "troons" things and other weirdos... profiting from their thin mental stability, and once brainwashed these don't have principles anymore.
They fight for life.
You disagree with them? You become a public enemy and there's no way to find a compromise.
I don't know if are the meds they take or they're born like that... but sure they can get very crazy!
I mean the guy was son of a veteran, had A grades till high school, normal guy... then goes to college and turns around....
Nothing new and sorry to derailed it to EU side of things, but I just was there and every time I get out in shock.
Also the EU parl gave the 1min silence for Floyd 5 years ago... and whole parliament kneeling... that guy had pointed a gun at a pregnant woman, was a felon, had more fentanyl than blood and died from heart attack.... and they denied the 1min for Charlie that was clearly shot for political reasons, in live streaming, having done nothing violent
š
and don't even let me talk about the Ukranian girl stabbed in the metro, Iryna Zarutska. Nobody was shocked about that?
It almost got unnoticed on the US news for such a violent crime, filmed too, (guess why) till it got to trump via right wing circles:
