I think these fascists are trying to make him their "George Floyd". But unlike what the death of George Floyd represented (a wake-up call and a rallying chant against authoritarisnism, bigotry, institutionalized racism, and police brutality), this is a complete farse and a mockery, completely devoid of any meaning. He died for nothing except to give us some hilarious memes to laugh our asses off for no more than a week
- I strongly disagree.
  I'll be laughing for much longer than a week.
  
  I smile when I think of the blood pouring from his neck.
  Nazi lives don't matter.
- My fuckwit uncle's response to comments about George Floyd was "well turns out he was an asshole."
  So as long as someone's an asshole, it's okay to extra-judicially murder them.
  
  Is your fuckwit uncle internally consistent or a racist?
- They're claiming it's their Reichstag fire.... They have somehow achieved a negative grasp of history. As in measured on a scale of 1 through 10, these people have a score of -5
- to be fair this is also a wake up call for them.
  if they fuck around, they might find out.
- Apparently, it’s this guy.
  Family members turned him in, because even his own family doesn’t want to harbour this bigot.
  And here’s a quick synopsis:
  
  He’s exactly who you’d think. I, for one, am shocked /s. I guess Charlie wasn’t Nazi enough or something (according to Nick Fuentes in past statements, Charlie was a bit too ‘woke’, but we don’t know this lunatic’s motives yet, so I’m just speculating).
  
  Not for nothing but we don't know if he's conservative or Republican at all. We know his family might be but we don't know he is.

NFL and nhl are really showing how much they dig fascism. Can’t quite tell with the mlb but the cardinals sure as shit are so fuck them
- NFL is the Millionaire CTE Scramble anyway, so I ain't watching that shit.
  
  Not to mention how fucking boring that shit is. I love how nfl fans will say baseball is slow and then sit there like football isn’t the slowest fucking thing ever god damn that sport is a drab and doesn’t deserve the name “football”
  
  Bro, where did you come up with that name 😂
- Always Fuck The Cardinals
  (But I’m positive the owners of my Cubs are fascist too so fuck the Ricketts also)
  
  It’s wild to have the same sentiment as a cubs fan. If there wasn’t the north south divide and ricketts being a cunt I’d probably just join up with you all to shit on the cards with how blatant they are about it. But hey, I’ve no qualms with being a White Sox fan. And I’m at stl as it comes so this is so fucking weird for me to be saying. Relish it, haha
- Fuuuuck, I'm gonna regret asking but what'd the NHL do?
  
  Pedo boy appointed bettman, gretzky, and tkachuk to some bullshit position to harass trans athletes essentially and I’m sure there’s a lot more shit.
- It appears that capitalism is as effective as monarchies at producing soulless sycophants. Who would have thought.
  
  It’s imperialism rebranded!

NFL taking both knees these days.

Got orders at work today to lower our flag to half staff in his honor. No mention of 9-11. This is a public school district :(
- Too bad the wires are malfunctioning and the message never arrived
  
  Also some damn kids tied knots in the flagpole rope, so that's gonna take a few days to fix
- Gross... If I were in charge of the flag, I would be trying to see if it were possible to fly it higher than usual.

The last time I checked, and fuck me if I'm wrong, the NFL has several black athletes. What did kirk say about black people?
- Calling the Civil Rights Act of 1964 a "huge mistake"
  Describing Martin Luther King Jr. as "awful" and "not a good person"
  Stated "If I see a Black pilot, I'm going to think, 'I hope he's qualified'"
  Claimed successful Black women like Joy Reid, Michelle Obama, and Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson were "affirmative action picks" who "do not possess the cognitive capacity to be taken seriously"
- The league only cares about black athletes to the degree that it can profit off their performance.
  Case in point: Colin Kaepernick knelt during the national anthem -- which was honestly an extremely mild form of protest -- and was immediately black-balled.
  If they do care about black athletes, they clearly care about money a lot more.
  
  The players are unionized, and the NFLPA has a lot of strong black voices in leadership if I recall (at least as of the last time I looked into it)... But yeah I doubt they'll do anything unfortunately.
- Remind me who the owners... wait, don't. Let's just look at a picture of the owners of the nfl.
  Then think about how 'just' their presentation goes. Compare the owner and the 'peripheral' employees. There's a better picture that I can't find that is often used in sociology classes, where the owner of a team is in the presence of the cheerleaders and the players, and it can't be beat for showing that if you're a rich man wanting slaves and concubines, owning a team is pretty much the next best thing.
  The sports associations are fucked.
- NFL Players Association should stand up to this shit.

The fucking state of Virginia is calling for a moment of silence over this guy. What the hell is going on?
- They're martyrizing him. Goal is probably civil war and trans genocide.
- And to bury the Epstein birthday book. Did anyone realize that the emails between Maxwell and Epstein were released yesterday?
  https://www.newsweek.com/epstein-emails-private-account-2128274
  
  Some messages made references to Trump, though they do not provide any evidence of criminal conduct.
  Welp.
  The article also doesn't mention those communications implicating anyone (alive) other than Maxwell, which isn't nothing, but definitely not the illumination people were hoping for, I don't think.
  
  Oh damn I can't wait to faicism to fall now that the files are coming out.
  Anytime now guys. Definitely not a distraction or a waste of time.
- the far-right establishment behind the Trump administration is preparing to use this as the justification for the incoming Reichstagsbrandverordnung.
  They've got their van der Lubbe now and they're working to get their bullshit in before Nov 2026
  
  Wlthe fact that a nazi is called lube scares me tremendously
- Bigots, racists, liars, and stochastic terrorists are the rights idols. That is what is going on.
- The same thing that the billionaires have been doing. Paying fealty and demonstrating loyalty in the hopes of avoiding attack or maybe even getting rewarded.

This doesn't matter at all. Release the Epstein files.
- We need justice and closure for the survivors. That's why the files need to be released.

- Me waking yesterday with no memory of whomst I was.
  I am very sick.

every time i try to have a moment of silence for charlie kirk i end to giggling because that stupid fuck is in hell
- Unfortunately, there is no hell. We need to make sure horrible people get their comeuppance here, on earth.
  Since it looks like he died near instantly, with no time to reflect on the damage he’d wrought, he basically escaped justice. On the plus side, he can’t do more damage. On the far larger negative side, he’s a martyr now.
- If I believed in hell, I would do a little dance.
  I believe that when you're dead, that's it, you're gone. And rightly so since that guy was a massive piece of shit and by all morality, deserved to die. And then the way he got killed? THAT makes me ACTUALLY do a little dance.
  I can't wait for you know who... I'm gonna go into the street and do a little dance. Maybe even a big dance and have a party that lasts a week

Man would I get my ass kicked once I started up my “CHARLIE KIRK’S IN HELL clap clap clapclapclap” chant during the moment of silence.
- Deservedly so, since it's supposed to be four syllables before the claps, no more, no less. /s
- Carry around a couple of bricks. They wanna beat your ass? Hold a brick in each hand and start throwing punches back. You'll break your hands in the process if you hit them with your hands, but you'll also shatter any bones of theirs that you touch.
  
  This is why if you want to start shit, you ride a motorcycle. Never get in a fight with someone wearing a motorcycle helmet.

Boycott the NFL if you like American style football just watch Canadian or Australian football or even rugby they are all close enough and in some cases like Australian football I would say are better
- Or avoid all sports 😉
  
  If you suggest this to a Canadian they'll rip out your spine, they could never give up hockey or seal clubbing.
- Or just attend university leagues. I don't even like football, mostly because I don't understand the rules, but this time of year I go to cheap to free university games.

It's not like I can boycott their garbage any more than I already do.

i forgor 💀

To quote Marilyn Manson:
"If you die when there's no one watching,
then your ratings drop and you're forgotten.
But if they kill you on their TV,
You're a martyr and a Lamb Of God. "

US sports (except maybe basketball) are very right-wing. I don't think they actually care one way or the other, but their audience is mostly boys and men, and boys and men are right wing these days, so the sports cater to that audience.
- I have a good time watching the game but the commercials make me wince.
  The salute the troops makes me gag.
  The nationalism disguised as patriotism … it’s honestly getting to be too much.
  
  It's not just commercials, it's often also the commentators. They're not saying outright Nazi things, but, for example, they often they reminisce about how things used to be better, and complain about the current world.
- I imagine people won’t like to hear it, but there’s no denying that major sports teams rely on the same “in-group/out-group” dynamic that fascism relies on.
  It may be a more benign form (for the most part), but the whole “my sports team is better than yours!” Is definitely tribalistic in nature. It’s not surprising to me that many die-hard fans may revel in arbitrary social divisions in other facets of their lives.
  
  I don't know if they do it in the US, but it's well known that Nazis in Europe are recruiting from the soccer fan clubs.
  People turning their entire lives into revolving around artificial factions about a game they have no say in, and willing to get into physical fight over it, yeah, those are exactly who they want.
  
  Fascism is about the in-group that gets to make rules that bind the out-group but not themselves. The important bit there is the enforcement of those rules with the state's monopoly on violence.
  Merely having an in-group and an out-group is harmless on its own. It's how you have inside jokes. It's how you have friends who you can trust with secrets. It's how families work.
  
  As if the left is immune to tribalism...
- Studies have consistently shown a pretty even split, typically leaning Democratic. This trend aligns with American demographics and reflects the political landscape of the cities where these teams are located, which tend to be predominantly Democratic.

  I assume you were being hyperbolic when you said that boys and men are right-wing.
- Not saying you are wrong at all, but EW

Cool, another reason for me to hate football

I said they weren't gonna, and they didn't. We got a big ol flag display outside town, the towns proud of it. It goes to half staff when appropriate. It did not fly half staff yesterday.
- My town too. Most flags at houses are being flown at full mast.
  Like, flying a flag at all is questionable at best but it’s nice to know that most people clearly don’t care.

It will likely happen before every football game this weekend.
Fox News will then publish a pearl-clutching compilation of people booing at college football games, and Trump will use that to justify defunding those institutions further.
- i have a suggestion, and that's that everyone going to one of these events, cue up Entry of the Gladiators by Julius Fucik, have multiple copies downloaded on your phone ready to go at whatever public event you're at ready for that jackass' moment of silence, and blare it out your phone. count down one two three then whoever's ready plays at full volume. drown the motherfucker out.
- Makes me glad I stopped watching football years ago when it became clear that we were systematically destroying our childrens' brains for a chance to destroy their brains further on TV as adults. All in the name of entertainment.
  No thanks.
  
  Youth sports are tricky. Girls Soccer has nearly the same amount of concussions. (10.2 vs 8.4 per 1000)
  Other sports can be just as dangerous (lacrosse, wrestling, hockey, rugby, etc.)

It's all pop culture and social trend... Life's not about being an actual decent human being for most people.

At this point: All Buildings Matter

None of those people mattered, duh.

I saw an electronic billboard yesterday on the road that said "In Rememberance Today" or something like that and started getting angry thinking they were talking about Charlie Kirk but then I'm like, oh damn, I done forgot...

I'm pretty sure there was something for 9/11 actually. It's been a while but I'm almost positive.
- This guy's right. Isn't that the one where they made Janet show us her titty? Never forget!

It's not eye opening if you have been paying attention. If you aren't with them, you are against them. It's very black and white for them.

If I'm there and they call for one for him, Ive got my clown music loaded and ready to go. "not for him", so say we all

The information on the tiny amount of epstein files released might be titillating but the real meat and potatoes is in the rest of the huge mountain of information that they did not release.

As long as we remember Harambe
