No, I’m not.
Neither am I. MAGA asshats can go screw off. They want to destroy this country. I don’t condone assassination unless truly warranted (talking overt, doubtless genocide as an example), I sure as hell don’t commiserate with MAGA just because of this incident.
Oh ogey…
No the fuck we aren’t.
Go fuck yourself.
Get fucked with a barrel cactus.
With a saguaro; that way she can get a twofer.
Lmao, indeed!
You don’t have to be a MAGA worshiper to be a decent human being that doesn’t want someone to be killed by a random person, because of their beliefs or talking points. That being said… I want to hear that Trump died in a federal prison of natural causes.
So you think Hitler didn’t deserve to die? That all the Nazi officers america brought here and gave government positions were deserving.
Godwin
Godwin thinks Trump Hitler comparisons are totally fair because Trump is a fascist looking to install a fascist regime in America. It’s a good read.

That’s cool, thank you for sending that!
I’m fact you have to not be a MAGA worshipper to be a decent human being. It’s a hateful ideology exclusively for hateful people.
Regardless of what causes it or where he happens to be when it happens, I’m looking forward to his funeral.
Maga worshippers tend to be the exact opposite of decent human beings.
I was playing along with OP’s narrative.
Amen…
Troll gonna troll.
Nah, violence is a tool, and if someone poses a genuine threat to democracy and can up the genocide, it’s understandable that people would try to stop them. If they get democratically elected and then commit a bunch of genocide, them getting popped is a consequence.
I’m not condoning what was done. It truly is awful what happened. However, you spout hateful, phobic, misogynistic, ableist rhetoric since the 2016 campaign? Maybe don’t be surprised.
Is this victim blaming?
Yes, but unironically
No, this is Patrick.
No this is the find out stage.
Lol oh honey

2016? Motherfucker has been spouting hate as far back as we are willing to judge people for spouting hate.
Fine, I guess the chicken came to roost 😔
Fuck no
I understand…
😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭
No. We may all be Americans, but MAGA is an alt-right hateful term, and I will never align myself with that.
We can align as Americans and condemn violence, but that means condemning all violence.

/ seriously Well, have ye heard of the term “chickens coming home to roost”? I think that’s what Trump had coming for him, I guess…
I’m not American
Genuinely, if Trump is a genuine risk to democracy and risks increasing support to Israel, why must he be defeated in a vote? Like, if he becomes Hitler 2 and erases democracy and ups the genocide, is that okay with you because he won the vote?
He must be defeated in a vote to send a clear message he is not wanted/has no mandate. He can cry “stolen election” all he wants, he won’t be in charge, and after 2 presidential losses and 2 disastrous midterms the GOP will move on. Eventually he has to win or he has no power.
I will treat this with all the solemnity that Trump would if it was one of his political opponents
Indeed…
Sir, this is a meme community.
Wdym… civility demands this, so?
😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
No.
I would like to put it on the record that I’m 100% not MAGA. Not today. Not ever. Also, go fuck yourself.
I’ve seen the author on political shows in the UK. She’s the worst kind of right wing hack and her opinions are worthless.
Gross. Absolutely gross.
I condemn such political violence, but I wouldn’t have shed a single tear for Trump.
Fuck MAGA. Fuck Trump.
Why condemn it? Violence is an unfortunate tool, but a tool nontheless, and abandoning it when oppressors use it without care just means you aren’t taking things seriously. Hitler should have been assassinated.
By weighing all violence as immoral you are not ruling it out completely. You make it a last-resort, where you avoid one great injustice with a lesser injustice - a lesser injustice which you still face consequences for.
The alternative is morally sanctifying some murders, which leads to ‘morally justified’ murders being done by all political sides (since they each view themselves as ‘the moral ones’), and which eventually gets twisted into the party in power murdering their opponents with impunity because it’s ‘morally justified’.
Moralism itself is just a tool to justify the status quo. Nothing is inherently good by maintaining “civility,” especially if violence is the status quo.
Shooting Nazis is good. Shooting Gazans is bad. Violence is a tool, but not always the correct one, nor is it never correct.
I think that is a misreading of why moral codes come into being, and I am not trying to preach moralism.
Moral codes are not universal truths, but instead rules of engagement for maintaining order within a system, and they exist within every social social scope, though their level of detail tends to decay as the scope becomes more interpersonal. They’re not really a tool of the state, but instead just a human tool. The state just codifies its own and disseminates it into the social collectives it rules.
My statement above is a moral observation about political morality within the US, and which I view is generally a useful rule within any democratic political system (I am referring to systems which have a structure and voting system associated with democratic processes, not necessarily ideal or actual democracies).
I am also not saying that this moral code is necessarily good for us or the system itself at any given moment, but stating why this moral code exists in the first place, and why anyone who is apart of our system and wants that system to survive (whether that be for avoiding personal turmoil or political ideology) will continue to condemn assassination attempts from any side.

Yes, moral codes are generally arbitrary. When wielded by the state to maintain the status quo, it becomes a tool of the state.

The US isn’t truly democratic. Both major parties serve the interests of their donors, ie huge Capitalists, and the candidates presented fit with that alignment. In this manner, political pressure outside the scope of “civility” is presented as immoral, despite civility itself being used to perpetuate anti-democratic structures.

Yes, this is why Biden has batted more for Trump than any child murdered in Gaza. Biden needs civility to remain, or else he too will become a target.
I do not.
Fuck MAGA, Try again on Trump.
