Sitting senator for the state of Utah. Bet you won't see any condemnation on the right on this guy, probably going to make money for his reelection campaign if anyone takes issue with him joking about a wonderful woman and her husband being assassinated. Just a pattern of behavior from the people who made jokes about Nancy Pelosi's husband when he was attacked with a hammer in their home. She was a sunday school teacher a girl scout troop leader and she raised therapy golden retrievers for veterans. the one they were raising at the time was also killed defending them. The other family that was targeted by the pictured man had their daughter in the house and the wife threw herself on her daughter to shield her. They're not guaranteed to live and are going through surgeries for their 8 and 9 bullets they took from the guy. These are the people whos feelings blackjack wants to defend from being called nazies. the well of depravity is unimaginably deep. people died and this fuck is having a laugh on his right wing safe space... at least they have got the MAGA Maniac in custody. | ||

I'm glad you think the woman who collaborates with Nazis and who has blood on her hands from denying people access to healthcare is sooooooo amazing. Has Luigi taught you nothing? An apparent politcal assassination and another attempted happen, and that's your takeaway. You need to detox from technology. | ||

I don't get how do people end up like that, I mean who writes that shit and thinks, yeah, that's right, I'm so clever, let me post this. It's so fucked up, it just makes me sad that people like this exist, reprehensible. | ||

I've read BJ for long enough that I know he's just trying to be funny, but it failed miserably. The others? Yeah, TNHFE (There's No Hope. Fuck 'Em) | ||

He's sincere in his belief that only he can detect racism and everyone else's racism detector is broken. He did the same thing during the pandemic. Only he could understand anything about the virus, the lockdowns, the masks, etc. Everyone else who didn't agree with him - including a vast number of experts - was automatically wrong. | ||

I actually prefer to live in a country that laughs people who dress up as cops and wear Michael Meyers masks out of society all the way to the electric chair. Rather than one that fears them, which is what they want, if they want anything coherent at all. This way, the next time anyone ever sees a single cop-looking person outside their window in a Michael Meyers mask at 2am through their peephole or ring camera, that person will be second amended into the next life. The mention of Walz is political - whether a big deal, or not, he did appoint the guy, and he has slightly related gaffes like being "friends with school shooters" and letting people riot in 2020. It's not a unifying joke any more than Nightmare on Maga Street would be, referencing if the guy voted for Trump. But in neither case is it a joke in any way supporting going to representatives' houses and shooting them.

There are a nonzero amount of people here who hope for, and a lesser but nonzero amount who advocate for blowing up and shooting people they don't like. The way I read BlackJack's comment is with her voting record on that day, change the letter in front of her name and she'd be another deserving part of the fascist blob by those people's fickle reckoning. That's hard to look in and admit though. | ||

A Senator though? Come on. In the UK, and I imagine many other locales if even an obscure local councillor shared such a Tweet, they’re gone if they’re in basically any of our prominent political parties, or at the very least heavily and publicly rebuked. | ||
