Interesting all the posts I've seen of right wingers so angry, they want to start shooting people, while unironically suggesting that the left is violent.

On another topic. This channel is amazing



Kind of Adam Curtis crossed with the funny parts on Qanon Anonymous.

Seriously worth watching/listening.

If we had a good national education program, there would be no MAGA. That's why we got the old rasslin' hag dismantling everything.

This is part of a 40 year + plan by conservatives.

Man, I don't know if this belongs in the politics thread, but i can't get over what a good shot that dude was.

Over 100 yards. Even on a clear day you'll have wind. I don't know who could make that shot, personally, and I grew up with some major dudes with that shit.

It's wild to me he pulled that off.

Check out the episode from about a year ago about the “death” of Joe Rogan’s “comedy”.

Sort of kind of thread adjacent, my youngest just finished his 2nd week of his freshman year at Concordia College in Moorhead. Plays football, plays tuba, got a vocal scholarship. He sent me a selfie walking to class wearing his Brigate Rosse t-shirt saying "I can't think of a better day than today to wear this". Lots to learn, but heart's in the right spot.

Well, technically...

Dunno about that.

Also, these are the bullet messages...

The shooter had 4 bullet casings with these messages engraved

The bullet that killed Kirk said:
*Notices bulge* OwO what's this?

The others:
If you read this you are gay LMAO,
Hey fascist! Catch!
Oh bella ciao bella ciao bella ciao ciao ciao

Particularly the last two, or the last one... hahahahahhaaa there is no way that any Gen Zer American has any knowing of the greatest Italian song ever written. I am not putting it past anyone that those things could have been inscribed afterwards. I am not a conspirer, but I do not trust this government that has only deceived the regular American public.

So they did find the shooter. Also, not registered with any party and hasn't voted in two major election cycles. Clearly anti-fascist, so there's a nice loophole for the fascists to start cracking down on the big bad Antifa "organization".

I don't know, it's second-hand but Matt Lech of the Majority Report was talking about being an unenthusiastic teen hunter in ND and bagging a deer at 175 yards, and that's a moving target etc. They also mentioned that the shot apparently deflected up off of Kirk's bullet-proof vest slightly into the neck, was maybe not what the shooter was aiming for.

If you have ever been a 22-year-old drifter with a chip on your shoulder, shakey sense of superiority and the feeling that the odds are stacked against you to make some kind of mark on this world and time is running out (which is entirely untrue but subjectively real) it is not hard to understand guys like this or Oswald, or countless other very young men who do similar things.

Also, whole lot of baking going on in this thread, seems really to have captured the whole spectrum now.
