This is so fucking over the top. Kirk was not a political figure; he was a shit-stirrer.
Where was this outrage when the speaker of the Minnesota House was killed? She actually was a political figure, and yet … crickets.
The sanewashing of Kirk and his positions is abhorrent and has no place in a civilized society. As far as I’m concerned, the world is a better place without him, but given how much shit is falling apart because he was killed, we might have been better with him living to be a racist asshole for quite some time.
Fucking airline pilots are being fired for tweets?
They don’t see anyone as human. They’re in it for themselves, and we’re just useful marks and fodder to extract from.
