Edit: Every time I remember that he was killed by the hateful environment he helped create, I smile.

    Do you want Democrats to win elections?

    If so, celebrating the assassination of individuals that you don’t agree with is a very bad look, and won’t earn you any votes.

    If you want Republicans to win, proceed.

    (you require independent votes to win any national election. Even if D turnout is 100%, you can’t win without independents, and a significant portion of independents are against murder; even if that someone is pro 2nd amendment and anti-abortion).

      Do you want to win elections?

      No, I want to own my opponents. That is way more fun than doing actual work. And I am tired that only republicans get to do it.

      Just because I’m not in favour of murdering people doesn’t mean I’m upset this shitbag is no longer stealing oxygen. Happy accident, as it were. I doubt most indies miss this particular douche nozzle.

      individuals you don’t agree with…

      You mean fuckin’ white-supremacist, bigoted, misogynistic, transphobic, anti-vax, pro-fascist hate-spewing propagandists?

      Yeah I vehemently “disagree” with them and want them removed from this planet. Sorry if that offends fringe voters.

      Nah, screw you. I’m not the one constantly thinking about a dead dude. People can’t even admit who killed him.

      If you’re so focused on team politics that you can’t even imagine “your side” killing someone you like, you’re a lost cause. People like that will not help us at all long term.
