          Charlie’s job was propaganda. He laundered the fascist ideology into mainstream discourse. If my coworker said some of the awful shit Charlie said, I’d just think he was a racist piece of shit, but I wouldn’t celebrate his murder (nor would I mourn it). But Charlie had an audience of millions, and was paid handsomely to spread his fascist propaganda. I opened my nicest bottle of scotch when I heard the news.

          Show me a Charlie Kirk in charge of a country and I’ll show you Benito Mussolini.

            You’re proving my point. Charlie was never in charge of a country, so you can’t possibly compare him to Mussolini.

              Holy cognitive dissonance, Batman! That means there’s nothing comparable? So, which one was the human, and which one was the golfball?

              You can’t compare hate-spewing fascists because they because they weren’t the same RANK!

              I’m honestly impressed; you’ve surpassed Mental Gymnastics and created Mental Parkour.

      You need better mental health care.

      you start off by saying you’ve always thought you’re on the left

      but the moment you disagree with someone, you start shit like this, which is a very common pattern of argument from right-wingers.

      “I think your opinion is so wrong that it’s a symptom of mental illness” is just fucking stupid. do better. or, if you refuse to do better, stop attempting the “I’ve always been on the left but…” shtick. it is absolutely see-through and does not fool anyone.
