    Long opinion piece, but the only words actually said by the murderer are these:

    I had enough of his hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out.

    This supports that he killed Kirk for his ideas, but we still don’t know which ideas and if Kirk actually had those ideas or if the murderer imagined them. We still have very little information about a real motive.

      There is nothing wrong with wanting to know more, but it was about his ideas. At someone point I think it becomes easier to recognize that those who claim to support Democrats, can be vicious too.

      I had several people on Lemmy wishing me dead merely for calling out Biden’s support of genocide. Like, at what point do people speak up & say no we’re not okay with this, this isn’t who we are?

      When people on the left pretend, like they did with Biden claiming he was young & dynamic, saying he actually firmly stood against the genocide in Israel, all it does is push people further away. It does damage to the party & helps people like Trump. It says, we’re also the party of hypocrites but we’re better liars about it. When people see others claiming to be Democrats celebrating someone’s death for their speech, do you think it is helping?

      Like why am I like the only person here willing to say this now? Do you think that leaves me or others hopeful about the future of the Democrat party? Is everyone else here that called me the Russian bot for pointing out Biden’s flaws & advocating for a better option sooner than when he dropped out, the actual Russian bots? Are they trying to push for more violence & chaos in America? Or is this really just what the Democrat party has become now?
