Yes I do. Its a big thing happening in the world right now and I would like to see a discussion of it. 

Oh I totally get that but it was exactly as you said.  People were attacking other people.  People weren't having a conversation.  They were just coming in all suited up to go to a culture war.  No winners.  No mutual respect of ideas.  Just anger.  The thing is, what makes politics so usless is that it promotes polerization.  But we aren't like that in real life.  In real life we agree about more things that we disagree about.  That thread was just a wasteland of rhethoric. 

Its the same in this thread. But its still open. All the ones the left makes are open. Its getting really tiresome.

So what is important today? Did Trump say a word wrong or something? Very important issues.

Not like the one where a 31 year old man was shot in the neck in front of his wife and young children. Thats old news, right? Who cares about some brutal historic assassination.

Trump has already moved on and is talking about his lovely new ballroom XD

But, for the hell of it, I'll ask. What made this one historic as opposed to the one where Melissa Hortman was murdered? Did you throw a hissy fit about that one?

Never heard of her. Did you make a thread about it?

I see the left doing well in here. Thats good. I guess we can have this thread open. Dont want to make it seem like the right is ok and the left is wrong for once. Had to close that Charlie Kirk thread for the good of the people I guess. Oh it was probably because people were attacking eachother, right objective mods? ....fucking idiots.

Exaclty what was the 'right' correct about in this particluar instance about Kirk?  Or the right guy who murdered him?  I was attacked for instancing that murder was wrong and that I also understood people's dislike of Kirk.  Like it is some sore of crime to disagree with Kirk... so weird and completely against Kirk's own beliefs.  It wasn't enough for me to be disgusted by the violence.  I had to segment a portion of society, call them 'left', and say they are the eniemies of humanity.  There was no middle ground and they were not trying to have meaningful conversation.  Sounds crazy right?  Kinda almost as mind numbingly crazy as an Alt right white male murdering a white nationalist in cold blood for who know wtf reason.  

But go on.  What is it that you wanted to say that you were prevented from saying in the other thread.

No, but I'm not the one demanding we have a thread about Charlie Kirk. So please, answer the question, aside from the fact that you like him, why is this shooting especially notable?

If he was a lefty, we would've found out by now. This slow drip feeds tells me they've got nothing to attack the left or the democrats with.

This is from The Guardian. One anonymous source isn’t really proof, in my opinion, but things are indeed coming out.

Okay lets talk about it.  I for one think it was right to close that thread because from the beginning Trump had stated that he was killed by the left.  That pretty much doomed/poisioned this whole topic... he basically pour gas on a flame and sent it back out to the masses.  Work with me:  now that we know that the guy who killed him was far right himself... maybe we don't even know the real reason why he did it and we need to take a step back and get all the facts before we start attacking each other or even assuming its political at all.  Like, I think we can all agree that murder is wrong.  I think we can agree that the killer needs to be brought to justice.  And I don't really know if there is anymore there there.   What do you think?

It's called the US Politics thread, not the Lefty Thread. Pretty sure you've already posted in here multiple times in the past. I've explained why the Charlie Kirk thread was locked elsewhere, look at how toxic this shit is making everyone, and yes a large part of it was because there was absolutely no good coming out of the thread, a user was driven away, people were posting straight up fake accusations with zero proof, half the site was ripping each others throats out, Lol.

You want to take back that "fucking idiots" or do you want me to ban you? I'm giving you some grace here and proving that I'm not the ban happy lunatic that some of you seem to think I am, Lol. Once a fucking again might I add, because I have been one of the most consistent Mods in accepting people straight up insulting me but choosing to instead debate them, Lmao.

I find it notable. Someone made a thread about it. Thats how I found out. Make a thread about Melissa Hortman and I will post there and follow the discussion.

You didnt explain anything since I cant access the fucking thread anymore. Do whatever you want. Cancel culture is your thing.
