Man, you seem not know right from wrong. Not ideal in a "journalist".

He was literally making a racist comment about "gang violence" WHEN HE WAS SHOT BY ANOTHER RIGHT WINGER. Is this civility or...?

News orgs bulling Biden relentlessly, but celebrating Charlie Kirk tells you about their values.

really feels like we are through the looking glass that so many of our elites on both sides thought this guy was respected and important.
johnhoward66 (@johnhoward66.bsky.social) reply parent
its because so much of our media structure is white and they literally never saw the damage he did. its invisible to them. they have to actively lie and not play anything he said to do sanitize him. they are knowingly avoiding the truth. there is no good reason for that.

To repeat this uncritically after whats gone on in the last few months is journalistic malpractice.
johnhoward66 (@johnhoward66.bsky.social) reply parent
all of the people he talked garbage about and wished death on and now we are all supposed to listen to him be lionized? he was literally saying racist crap AS HE WAS SHOT. its not journalism, its PR for the right wing.
johnhoward66 (@johnhoward66.bsky.social) reply parent
he isn't a singular figure. he is one of dozens of white men who make money off of being racist. he was literally doing it for an adoring audience when he is shot. does being a journalist mean refusing to tell the truth now? Seems like it.
johnhoward66 (@johnhoward66.bsky.social) reply parent
the way you just repeat this stuff with no context, no comment. Do you have a brain?
johnhoward66 (@johnhoward66.bsky.social) reply parent
white men are wilding right now. is it their culture that causes them to be so violent?
johnhoward66 (@johnhoward66.bsky.social)
i mean...
johnhoward66 (@johnhoward66.bsky.social) reply parent
Kirk was the worst of us, rolled up into one human and now, after he has said racist, violent things, platformed people who murdered anyone to the left of him and was shot AS HE WAS SAYING SOMETHING RACIST and now we are supposed to pretend he was a decent human? Our society is sick.

the real reason is these white crackers are still salty over federal troops being sent to Little Rock to protect the rights of black people and they have been dying to put troops in the North ever since. Its Jim Crow payback.
