I don’t think you realize what this did, people aren’t afraid and if I’m reading trends right this is going to backfire greatly for the hard left. If you go on right wing platforms it’s loaded with post after post of left wingers who just got fired from their jobs yesterday after celebrating his death online. Rumors of FBI watch lists and doxxers doxxing left wingers, yankee stadium even honored him. This isn’t the win you think it is
I think you overestimate how consequential this could be. He’s dead. He’ll have a funeral, some people will talk about that, and then Trump will have to keep saying and doing more stupid stuff to keep diverting the attention from he fact that he raped children and 2 separate committees in Congress are now working to bring that to light.
Meanwhile Netanyahu and Putin are doing their best to start WWIII, not to mention the hurricane season is upon us. This was a 31 year old cry baby who got axed in a public and shocking way, but it won’t take a week before we can’t remember how long ago it was he died.
Where do leftists get their geopolitics these days?
Putin is not trying to start WWIII. Indeed, arguably Netanyahu is.
Are you honestly suggesting that the USA is the good guy in the Ukraine conflict and are a "far leftist?" I know there are people like you guys, lol, stupid Euro-'Tifa types that were born in the 90s or 00s who become CIA stooges at the drop of the hat.
Say what you want about the boomer left, but they would not be CIA stooges.
It isn’t a win for the left at all. In fact this seems to be sowing a lot of dissent in the the left. I have some friends that are left. This shook them up. They always say Charlie as a decent person with ideas they didn’t agree with. Not someone who should be shot.
nobody on the left sees charlie as a decent person.
I have see many people say it. It everyone is an ignorant piece of shit. Some people can disagree with someone’s views but still respect their good qualities.
I've seen a few on the far left, and more than a few in the moderate left.
Do you think it's good to think someone's evil for very basic classical liberal beliefs?
Exactly, hardline fools will celebrate his death but they are the minority and it will only appendage them politically and socially. It would be like if someone went and shot James carville or Anderson Cooper. It solves nothing, matures things worse and the people who would celebrate it would only make their party worse off
Personally I think this was a stupid move. It draws more interest to Charlie and his views. Murdering people isn’t the fight answer when you disagree. I suspect they just pushed the republicans into winning 2026.
