      It’s kind of funny how almost all Republicans act as if no Republican could possibly hate fascists, pedophiles, rapists, or xenophobes.

      The *sole* value of conservatism is respect for and obedience to [one’s perception of] traditionally established hierarchy, and hierarchy dictates that those on top (in-groups) are rightfully idolized and receive privileges, credibility, and resources, while those on the bottom (out-groups) are demonized/dehumanized and/or bound by restrictions, scrutiny, and lack of resources.

      To them, the second-greatest injustice imaginable is for those [they perceive to be] on the bottom [of social hierarchy] to have access to the rights, credibility, and resources reserved for those on top. The first greatest injustice is for those on top to be bound by the restrictions, scrutiny, and lack of resources reserved for those on the bottom.

      Conservatives absolutely need an underclass [for society] to demonize and dehumanize in order to maintain [their] hierarchy, and every single one of their policies and rhetoric work to do exactly that. Even when [the majority of U.S. mass shooters are cis men](https://www.reuters.com/article/fact-check/majority-of-us-mass-shooters-are-cis-men-not-transgender-or-non-binary-people-idUSL1N363273/), [not transgender or non-binary people](https://ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/ap-top-news/2023/03/30/fact-focus-no-incredible-rise-in-transgender-shooters).

      It is never *the act itself* that upsets them, but rather, the *social standing* of the person doing the act, as said act is a privilege meant for those on top of [their perceived] hierarchy. (See also: pedophilia – Trump and Catholic church vs. LGBTQ+ and drag queens)

      Every right-wing accusation is a confession. Every single one. Always. 

      „[Perceived victimhood, authoritarianism, populism, and white identity are the most powerful predictors of support for violence, though military service, conspiratorial thinking, anxiety, and feelings of powerlessness are also related.](https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/perspectives-on-politics/article/who-supports-political-violence/9A6BE3C153607A2E26B5DF8076F1753D)“

      Studies also show that „[radical acts perpetrated by individuals associated with left-wing causes are less likely to be violent. In the United States, we find no difference between the level of violence perpetrated by right-wing and Islamist extremists.](https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2122593119)“, and numerous [investigations](https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/usa-politics-violence-far-right/) show that „[right-wing populists are generally more likely to justify political violence compared to mainstream voters and non-voters](https://ejpr.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/1475-6765.12668?af=R)“.

      „Know your place“ is their mantra.

      I think we will see more of his demographic; Gen z, white, male, conservative, doing similar things going forward.

      It’s the age that gets sent to war because they are now „adults,“ brimming with testosterone, and don’t have fully developed frontal lobes/long term thinking.

      They were made a lot of promises for their loyalty.

      Girls would like them; the opposite happened.

      Things would get cheaper and living would get easier; the opposite happened.

      There wouldn’t be any new wars they would have to worry about; the opposite trend is happening.

      Big government would be put in check, corrupt officials ousted, pedophiles arrested; not only is the opposite happening, it’s becoming more apparent that the party they were told to put their faith in is riddled with this.

      Charlie Kirk was a main recruiter of their age group, it’s not shocking in this context that he was chosen.

    4. Shot by one of their own, again! First Trump now Kirk. Right on right crime.

      Often times when a suspect confesses to murder, the investigator taking the statement will ask why they did it. It will be interesting to see what is made public, if anything, regarding the alleged shooter’s real motive.

    6. Nancy Mace:

      “Democrats owned what happened today,” Mace [told reporters outside the Capitol](https://x.com/LeahVredenbregt/status/1965882364636414152) shortly after the news of the shooting broke. “Just because you speak your mind doesn’t mean you get shot.”

      Nobles asked Mace, “By that logic, does that mean Republicans own the shooting of the two Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota? Isn’t this on both sides?”

      “Are you kidding me?” Mace shot back. “We don’t know Charlie Kirk’s condition right now and some **raging leftist lunatic** put a bullet through his neck and you want to talk about Republicans right now? No.”

      Nobles asked Mace if she would condemn political violence on both sides of the aisle, to which she replied, “We’re talking about Charlie Kirk right now.”

      I won’t hold my breath waiting for her to apologize…

      MAGA didn’t care at all when the dem politicians were murdered or when Pelosi’s husband was beaten….so….

      Laura Loomer is a psych patient. It ain’t just the hatred there’s other things. she’s a psych patient.

      Her face gets worse and worse. That’s a disorder.

      Y’all usually when women go off the rails. They change their looks to look clownish or barely human like Jocelyn Wildenstein. That’s a tale tale sign something is haywire upstairs. Laura got rejected and went off the rails. It did something to her.

      When a conservative is killed it doesn’t matter if there is a suspect or a motive or anything, they were killed because of their speech. When a liberal is killed it’s because the shooter was mentally ill. I think it a bit ridiculous that the killing has to have been politically motivated, as though people have never killed for notoriety or lunacy or anything else.

    10. Yeah they were unhinged with their hatred and blame of the left with NO evidence of who the suspect was.

      What else do you think those fuckers do?Wonder that they haven’t blamed Obama yet…

      Charlie Kirk’s murder was a tragedy. There is no excuse, but there is an explanation.

      His blood is on the hands of Trump and the people who supported the most divisive President in US history.

      Who honestly can say they didn’t see this (and worse) coming?

      Trump has used his wide reaching platform as the President to continually stoke the flames of hatred and division.

      His supporters constantly walk back and sane-wash all the hate filled, crazy things he says.

      You wanted a divisive, hate speaker to lead this country and now you see the results. Own it.

      Kamala Harris: “We have to stop pointing fingers and start locking arms. It is time to turn the page on the drama and the conflict, the fear and division.”

      “I promise to be a president for all Americans … You can always trust me to put country above party and self.”

      “Unlike Donald Trump, I don’t believe people who disagree with me are the enemy. He wants to put them in jail. I’ll give them a seat at the table.”

      Donald Trump: “Democrats are people that hate our country. They hate our country. They hate it, I think, with a passion.”

      “If you’re not happy here, then you can leave.”

      “We have to beat the hell out of radical left lunatics.”

      “Democrats are either stupid or they hate the country. I hate them.”

      “They’re destroying the blood of our country, they’re destroying the fabric of our country.”

      It’s sad but predictable that this troubled person is using this young man’s death to encourage even more hatred which obviously will result in more tragedies.

      Of course his followers can also point to some examples of hate speech by irresponsible Dems.
      But make no mistake; Trump has the worldwide platform like no other. With great power comes great responsibility.

      Except for his group of blind partisan followers, the world sees that Trump is unworthy of the power of the office.

      Oh course the are going to blame the democrats for gun violence. The Maga’s care too much about the second amendment and lack of gun control  . It is incomprehensible what happened but conspiracy theories and hatred and redemption are not words of Democrats ! Nice try though 

    14. vinegarstrokes420 on

      Even if it was a shooter who had voted for Dems in the past, the left isn’t the party who has been actively calling for violence for years and had a line up of politicians saying violence is never ok. Huge difference compared to the right. Sure a bunch of young idiots are celebrating the death, but that’s not what the left is about. It’s also ok to not feel bad about a shitty person being killed when that person actively pushed a hate filled agenda that hurt many normal innocent people.

    15. AFlockOfTySegalls on

      There hasn’t been a single democrat with power that uses the rhetoric that Trump or anyone inside the conservative ecosystem uses. Not even a percentile of it. But for some reason maga has gotten away with saying the literal nobody twitter trolls are the mouthpiece of Barack Obama. It’s insane.

    16. Ok_Juice4449 on

      The extreme type of magas are getting ridiculous.  How I miss the days of the dull, ultra conservative standard Republicans. Magas are in a class (?)by themselves

      Honestly good for her for saying this, I’m sure she knew she’d get flack for it

    18. SchwillyThePimp on

      Oh man only slammed? This should have at least made her go nuclear and imo scorched earth. 

      Can’t wait for next to nothing be my better option over nothing done.

    19. Suspicious_Habit_26 on

      Forgive my ignorance but why doesn’t the DOJ just destroy the Epstein files so that no future administration can just release them when they get in power? Wouldn’t Trump want them all destroyed if they are so controversial?

    20. jock_lindsay on

      Republicans keep saying it’s the left’s fault for calling them fascists, and yet they are also literally calling for the forcible dismantling of the opposition party. The GOP ruined America.

    21. Same thing I was thinking. Dude could have slept with dude’s girlfriend for all we know. Yet, they had to get the talking point going so…

    22. imtoowhiteandnerdy on

      So weird to keep hearing this right-wing talking point that „the left is the party of murder“ (especially since there is no such party as „the left“).

      The narrative is especially weird considering that only a few years ago the MAGAs were openly celebrating Kyle Rittenhouse because he shot and killed two people at a protest in Wisconsin.

      Now… where did I put my AR-15 lapel pins…?

    23. IMREADY2D1E on
