I’m not sorry. Seeing someone who spread so much hate and bigotry and weaponized disinformation get his clock cleaned was absolutely fine by me.

I have empathy for lots of people even if we don’t always agree, but not for people like Charlie Kirk.

    Let me put this in a simple way. His death should not be celebrated but you shouldn’t mourn for him as well.

    Just go “phew, that’s one less bigot” & move on

        I think you are downplaying his role though. And it is critical to understand this in order to understand why people are actually kind of happy he died. He is not just a bigot, he is a person with a very large sphere of influence who uses this influence to turn people into bigotry or make people who are already bigots more extreme bigots. Overall it is a really huge benefit for society, orders of magnitudes more than just a single isolated bigot.
