@dutchdalton992 @CathyYoung63 They just announced they're going to use the federal government to crack down on dissent against Republican policy, which seems worse

TBH I think this is the right's "the week we all lost our fucking minds" George Floyd moment Notably, in each case, sparked by a horrific event caught on video: the slow murder of a citizen by a police officer in one case, the public assassination of a speaker in the other.

@FrankLRizzo @SeanTrende Since Republicans just escalated today by announcing they are going to use state power to suppress political opposition groups I guess we see what's next... exciting times

@SeanTrende It’s a game theory thing, Sean. If the other team repeatedly defects, then my team needs to start defecting as well.

So apparently canceling is sort of a "ring of power" thing too. Just too tempting and powerful for the other side not to use it when the opportunity presents. And so it goes.

@Ultimaterepgod @lbjfancamcoop He served a 5-year sentence for a felony and when he got out he had become so schizo his mom tried to have him involuntarily committed but there was a waiting list because the state is cheap.

@epluribusuni @crb0712 @jessesingal So you can't defend the original claim, and now you're pivoting to defamation law? You motherfuckers don't even know how quotes work, I'm not taking legal advice from you.

The vice president of the United States has instructed his followers to call the employers of people who did offensive tweets about Charlie Kirk. We need a stronger term than "worst timeline"
Eric Daugherty@EricLDaugh

🚨 BREAKING: JD Vance powerfully concludes hosting the Charlie Kirk Show for 2.5 hours by asking Americans to call the employers of those celebrating Charlie's assassination and to "put on the full armor of God." "Shine the light of truth like a torch in the very darkest places. GO DO IT." "Let all of us put on that armor and commit ourselves to that cause for which Charlie gave his life, to rebuild a United States of America and to do it by telling the truth." "So when you see someone celebrating Charlie's murder, call them out. Hell, call their employer. We don't believe in political violence, but we do believe in civility. And there is no civility in the celebration of political assassination. Get involved. It's the best way to honor Charlie's legacy." "Start a chapter of TPUSA or get involved in the one that already exists. If you're older, volunteer for your local party, write an op-ed in your local paper, run for office. I can't promise you this is going to be easy. I can't promise you that all of us will avoid Charlie's fate. I can't promise you that I will avoid Charlie's fate." "We owe it to our friend to ensure that his killer is not just prosecuted but punished - and the worst punishment is not the death penalty, but the knowledge that Charlie's mission continues after he's gone."

@jessesingal conservatives are extremely scared of people finding out who Charlie Kirk actually was, so they want to suppress anything related to his actual work, make everyone scared of actually discussing him other than his usefulness as a corpse to their political project

@epluribusuni @crb0712 @jessesingal She maliciously misquoted him. Opening up the publication to a defamation lawsuit is actually a very good reason for a journalist to be fired.

@crb0712 @jessesingal we very regularly discuss people's lives after they're dead - people talked very negatively about Hulk Hogan after he died because he was caught saying some very racist things, they quoted those things, don't recall anyone getting fired over it

@epluribusuni @jessesingal Why might one post quotes (without context) after an innocent person was executed in front of his family? You got any ideas? I know one.

The online left quickly spread a baseless theory over the weekend that Charlie Kirk was killed by a rightwing Groyper There's 0 real evidence of that, officials say the killer's a leftist & so many wondered "what's a Groyper" that internet traffic spiked axios.com/2025/09/15/gro…

@jessesingal People celebrating political assassinations is actually bad Jesse. Employers should be thankful to remove evil people from their organization.

@jessesingal Huh, kinda seems like democrats are way more outraged about people getting fired for things they said than they are about someone getting shot in the neck for things he said

being a grad student is so fun. I went to class for an hour and now I’m sitting on a sidewalk eating a slice of pizza at 11am on a monday. Someone even walked by and said my pizza looked good. This is so cool.

@TheOtherFrost No, the running itself is annoying. I want to be right outside the boss room. No real exceptions unless it's some neat little stress-free falling into a big hole or something. The run backs in DS sucked too which is why they stopped doing that eventually.

I think some of the complaints about long runbacks are because people can NOT help but kill every enemy they see It's more like Mario, you don't have to kill every turt and goomba

@waterslide @gracecamille_ So people whose careers depended on the lie upheld the lie? Shocker. Meanwhile he routinely boosted racism including Great Replacement white supremacy bullshit. His words mattered!

@epluribusuni @hecubian_devil It was 1 of a randomized 20 item selection of "How do you feel about the following?" And If you go and look at it, it's 42% "Neutral". So the plurality reply is "I just like tits, man." I also think, as with most cosmetic stuff, there's the issue of the Toupee fallacy.
