Rules:

  1. No sympathy with the enemy or its collaborators. Russian and North Korean soldiers are fascists committing a genocide. Remember that.

  2. Objective and factual reporting from the battlefield, parliaments, etc. is encouraged, even if it's about bad news for Ukraine.

  3. Insulting Putin and his cronies (Orban, Trump, Musk,...) is absolutely fine but don't use homophobic or similar language against them. Members of the queer community don't deserve to be compared to that scum. Also: Putin disciminates against gay people. If you do as well, you're part of the problem.

  4. Don't insult or use overly harsh language against other commentators.

  5. Don't submit direct links to Twitter/X and Truth Social posts. You may: Post a screenshot + quote, do a full quote and name the author, direct link to a proxy service like xcancel.com, deep link an image embedded in a tweet because Lemmy will cache a copy.

  6. Don't just complain about paywalls. If you encounter one, be a sport and link to an archived version instead. Use Firefox + uBlock Origin with the annoyances filters enabled and https://filterlists.com/lists/bypass-paywalls-clean-filter to avoid encountering many in the first place.

I'm starting to suspect that this Kirk fella wasn't a nice guy.

[–] dellish@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Yeah? And you're dead. Checkmate fascist!

Posting screenshots of his tweets is disrespectful to his memory.

He was the kind of delusional shit-fucker who thought there's a heaven and that he was going there. If he happens to be right about the former then he's definitely wrong about the latter.

Someone should shoot this assho ... oh, my bad.

[–] Hector@lemmy.world 0 points 5 hours ago

Hey man, no need for such a full throated criticism of the departed...

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

No. He does not deserve to be mourned but that does not mean he deserved to be murdered.

One of those guys is a living legend.

And one of them is a dead fascist!

[–] smeenz@lemmy.nz 16 points 22 hours ago

The best kind.

Funny how many posts I see of this guy being an utter cesspool but when I go on conservative media, I see literally ZERO examples of him saying anything they feel is worth praising. It’s almost as if everything out of his mouth was vitriolic garbage and they know it.

[–] vga@sopuli.xyz 18 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Almost as if one side posts only good things and the other only bad things

Wow, the hatred for a man simply defending his country from a violent invasion. These people are either complicit, or mind-bendingly stupid...

[–] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 66 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Not necessarily, they might be complicit and mind-bendingly stupid.

How many of these fuckers are wholly owned subsidiaries of Russia?

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 46 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Wholly I don't know, but many to the extent necessary to fuck us up

[–] mgnome@piefed.social 29 points 1 day ago (5 children)

What's funny, in a morbid way, is that many of these tools don't even realize Russians helped their uplifting not because they like them, but because they see their potential for polarizing Western society and driving it into conflict with itself.

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's still crazy to me that nothing came from the Mueller report. Trump's campaign was being driven by the Russians because him being president would harm America.

And his supporters didn't see anything wrong with that.

A whole bunch were uncovered to have been paid by Putin's Russia to spout these pro Russian talking points (hello Tim pool, feeling nervous yet?) and when uncovered they all acted like the innocent child who just got caught with their hands in the cookie jar

It's so funny to see that the exact same extremist US Americans that would kill you for just using the word "Russia" twenty years ago are the same ones that can't wait to suck Putin's dick. These people are so dumb that they don't even know they're dumb

I hope Kirk knew that he was dying.

[–] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 41 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Likewise, but unfortunately I'm pretty sure based on the video that the sudden overpressure, then pressure loss, of blood, caused him to immediately black out and probably have no conscious experience after blaming gun violence on trans people and gangs.

[–] beejboytyson@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Everytime I read that last part I can help revel in the irony.

[–] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 hours ago

Except that I would greatly prefer that he were acutely aware of what happened, why, and who was responsible. If only he had lived until Saturday-ish

as someone who has experienced sudden loss of blood pressure to the brain, you go grey then black very quickly. i was pumping my thighs to keep going (because i knew what was happening) and got an extra ten seconds of grey, don't remember anything after that. so... maybe he did?

[–] treesquid@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He knew, but not for long. I'm just sad her never knew it was a right-winger that did it

I've got nothing to say about the other guy, I'm just going to celebrate that Zelenskyy and Ukraine are still going strong!

[–] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 8 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Shame on any Ukrainian who supported the sack of shit.

and here's my mom thinking we're borderline celebrating his death because he's Christian

[–] kadaverin0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 4 hours ago

He was a pretty garbage Christian.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 8 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

You could try sending her these things

Maybe with a "oh, is this what Christians believe?"

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 1 points 14 hours ago

I agree! It's perfect! She needs to hear sas!

He was an attack dog, like almost all right wing internet pundits. This is what he was paid by the billionaires to do. If his taskmasters told him the new orders were to attack Zelenskyy, then by god that was what he did. I seriously doubt he ever had an original thought. Well, his racism was extra extra, I think that part he did for free.
