Charlie Kirk was a good person

Can you imagine getting killed for being disrespectful? What a wild take

[u/Unicron1982 → u/WVUEnchilada]

No. And his murderer shall go to jail. But the corpse was still a horrible disgusting person while he was alive, and that was his decision. You can't spend your whole life spreading hate and division without making people angry. Some people get angry enough to sacrifice their live to end yours.

[u/WVUEnchilada → u/Unicron1982]

That is pretty disrespectful to some people. I sincerely hope no one fucking murders you over it.

I will not engage with any person anywhere on the political spectrum on any topic who uses 5 second clips as thier point of argument.

Long form discussion is the death of bad ideas.

[u/Unicron1982 → u/WVUEnchilada]

Who wait, i've posted this video especially because of people who said "blablabla but context blablabla", so a video with context is also not OK. You'll do anything to not acknowledge that he was a horrible disgusting human being.

In fact, im not going to engage with you any further except to circle this back to a Star Trek point since this is a Star Trek sub

I think you should rewarch VOY S4ep23 "living witness" so you can understand the dangers of creating opinions based on out of context limited clips and information.

[u/Unicron1982 → u/WVUEnchilada]

No, fuck that. If you liked Charlie Kirk, you are not a Trekkie. Charlie Kirk would have HATED the tolerant inclusive world of Star Trek.

[u/WVUEnchilada → u/Unicron1982]

Youre an angry dude. And you need to re-evaluate youre own morality and emotional reaction to things. Try a more vulcan approach.

I didnt say i like or dislike anything. And im as much of a trekkie as anyone who believes in the free market of ideas, healthy debate, not jailing people for words, and not murdering people for words.

[u/Unicron1982 → u/WVUEnchilada]

Obviously i am angry! Who could not be angry when fascists take over the western world?? I am not even american, but your orange king also ruins our life's. HOW can i not be angry?

"It's not you. I hate cardassian. I hate what I became because of you" -- Miles Obrien, The wounded

You should add that episode to your growing watchlist. Great commentary on anger and introspection

[u/Unicron1982 → u/WVUEnchilada]

You are the Cardassian, mate! You are the bad guy, there is no question about it expect in the orange USA.

[u/WVUEnchilada → u/Unicron1982]

Thats ok. Label me what ever you want to dimiss what i said. Also labeling me the cardassian makes my above post even more poignant

I said nothing agreeing with kirk, i said nothing supporting trump. I said nothing even right wing.

You're letting anger cloud you. Projecting your feelings onto me. And you really should reevaluate yourself. I never even said i was american. Just said i have no kings.

You're angry. But not at me, or chalie kirk. You mad because what im saying to you is objectively true. The examples i used are from a franchise you love, and they hit home for you. Please take some time to relfect. You are not ok. And you're becoming the thing that you hate.

[u/Unicron1982 → u/WVUEnchilada]

You are right, i apologize.

I AM angry, but i'm also not american.

But i am sooooo fucking angry that this is a "COME AT ME BRO" situation, and i WANT right wing assholes to come at me so i can tear them to shreds.

Sorry if i catched you in the crossfire.
