Well that escalated fucking quickly. I watched both charlie kirk threads, and this one, and all I can say is.......
Jesus fucking Christ.
I don't know what else to say, holy shit. I know I haven't been here long, but still. This has been one hell of a week.
My heart goes out to Charlie and his kids, I saw the video, I saw the responses, and to be honest they boiled my blood, I've seen people dismiss them, friends I know the world over are infuriated over this, and now I wonder. "what now". Everyone here talks about action, but nothing's happening yet, I hope to God this is the start of real change, because having seen this all the way back from 2016 to now, I can say that someone threw the "fuck around find out lever" from "tensions boiling" to "holy shit it's about to blow like a goddamn volcano".
I don't know what to do, and I'm afraid, not for myself, but for my family, my mother, my little brother, they're both lefties, but not so far gone they cheered. But regardless I'm afraid, for myself, for them, and for the world. If we fall into civil war, the rest of the world is fucked, and I'm terrified that if and when we dig ourselves back out of whatever hell we fall into, the world we find will be very different than the one we remember, and I'm terrified of that. But what can I do? What can I do to change this?
I apologize if I've been powerleveling or not adding anything to the thread, but I genuinely wanted to throw in my two cents, since I don't have much to say here, and I certainly can't think of anything newsworthy, but I wanted to say SOMETHING.
