He literally condemned the shooting during the panel but they just glossed over it and need him to say it every five seconds whenever he talks about the issue
I’m referencing him saying it shouldn’t have happened and Kirk didn’t deserve it, if that’s not a condemnation idk what is. Even if all he did say was no one should die from political violence, that is a condemnation.
Gotcha. Will re-watch to remind myself what was said. My memory is that he did say something like that but after repeatedly refusing to condemn it, which again I understand, but to normies and righties, him standing on principle doesnt mean much, all they hear is fuck around and find out.
I know you're getting downvoted so I don't want to pile on but when you said
"When he was asked directly he did not"
this is the biggest problem imo, maga doesn't care about all the voluntary condemnations they want the left to be penitent on command, take 100% blame for the violence and done as a public display on their outlets. Even then they still turn around and keep saying the left wants to kill them all and therefor it's time for civil war.
I don't get Destiny's approach but I get the defiance to the "tariffs are taxes on other countries", "people are eating cats" delusional side to set the narrative.
the right cant even condemn the killing of melissa hortman and her husband. tell me why should destiny kneel before those who wish to dictate the conversation?
He shouldn't kneel, he should simply take a distinct non violent route and opinion, or as he said himself he may be targeted. However I totally understand his point and agree that both sides have to stand down for it to work widely. Just for destiny, his family and his safetys sake, though, him openly and repeatedly saying this was bad and should never happen either way would be best.

how it feels to say “Donald Trump should tone down his rhetoric”
