@gleick Heads up: Department of War firing people for having such an opinion…this scares me more than the civilian firings because there’s not as much recourse…
The overwhelming majority of mass shootings have been by conservative extremists (75%) compared to domestic Muslim extremists (20%) or liberal/leftist extremists (4%).
Republicans are going to counter by saying "This information is false because it is from the Jews" just before saying "You are antisemitic because you criticize the genocide in Gaza" because consistency is not their strong suit.

Charlie Kirk was killed by other conservatives, probably because he demanded the release of the Epstein Files.
If you are mad about his killing, then you need to take up his demand that the Epstein files be released without any criminal names redacted.
But if you want to attack a political ideology over his killing, attack conservatives; they are the ones who killed him.

A Black police officer, David Rose, was shot and killed defending a federal government building last month, and he didn’t get a presidential medal, a congressional moment of silence, or a lowered flag at the White House.
A white civilian, Charlie Kirk, is shot and killed on a college campus, and he gets all those things and a promise of presidential attendance at his funeral.

This is the difference between people who really value human life and people who really don't care about life, just the norms-- outward signs of "caring"-- that have always served their interests at the expense of others.
We all just saw MAGAs wailing and weeping and gnashing their teeth over a man whose memory they dropped like a hot rock as soon as it turned out not to be an excuse for a purge.
If somebody isn't writing about *all* political murder, I'm not listening.
