      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.

        Then you are just as bad as Charlie was. You just don’t have the same amount of followers.

                In what world is celebrating someone’s assasination the same as not giving a fuck about someone’s opinion?

                No wait… don’t answer that. I don’t even care how your weird brain works.

                  It’s the exact same thing, sweaty. All things are the same. Every person is the same. Every opinion is the same. Every death is the same.

                    Well yes, i suppose in your brain they are. Thankfully, in the real world things are different. Good day to you.

      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.
