Wait, so cancelling is good now? Dear MAGA, please make up your fucking minds.

And, y'know, grow a spine.

Patiently waiting for consistency from Republicans

Old news: the "fuck your feelings" crowd operates entirely based on feelings and not facts. Truth will be distorted to keep them from feeling shame or humiliation

[–] shawn1122@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 weeks ago

Apparently cancel culture has been resurrected.

[–] PodPerson@lemmy.zip 11 points 2 weeks ago

MAGA's bein pretty woke these days...

[–] blattrules@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

Going to college campuses and indoctrinating kids there is also cool now to them.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

They were upset conservatives didn't have the magic orb of cancelling.

Pro tip: Nobody has to joke about his death.

In fact, we can all be in support of his message: that gun deaths are "worth it", including his. 💁‍♂️

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 25 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

the thing is, joking about his ironic death is the most fair game thing there is, as it has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not you liked or disliked him, or agreed or disagreed with his messages

[–] Showroom7561@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

fair game

In a rational world, absolutely.

But you've gotta play the game when Team Nazi wants to get you fired.

I would rather joke on the irony and not support his message.

I get where you are going, but even ironical support for those people cause is prone to backfire.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 59 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Their entire party is now built on hate. These people will sacrifice anything to support their hate. They are literally using hateful actions to support the memory of a hateful person. It's just hate all the way down.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 27 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

These are the people who hung effigies of Obama being lynched in their trees.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 22 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I still don't get how there are so many of them. It takes so much emotional energy to be that angry.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 10 points 2 weeks ago

its extremely stressful, also its an addiction to.

That's what the meth is for.

[–] Ghis@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

My mom and step dad are raging alcoholics. The further they fell into alcoholism, the more their love for Trump grew.

They pop open their first Modelo (irony is dead) around 9am, at the latest.

He definitely radicalized her over the years (been married on and off for 18 years), and has started physical fights with me since I was a kid. She never really defended me, and put him over me when they got married. She is a librarian, and used to be a 7th grade English teacher. I hate that she's influencing children every day.

They can rot in Alabama.

This is absolutely true, and the craziest part is that half of them don't even know they're supporting bad stuff (they think they are good people, but they are hopelessly ignorant and passively racist with no desire to change) while almost none of them seem to realize that they are the ones making themselves miserable all the damn time. (speaking from my personal experiences/acquaintances)

Hate and negativity in every little nook and cranny of life. The kind of thing that makes people into dangerous and aggressive drivers when they are in no hurry to get anywhere.

[–] skisnow@lemmy.ca 42 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Most of the hate seems to involve just quoting things he's publicly said.

[–] ArmchairAce1944@discuss.online 24 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Because the truth hurts: Charlie Kirk was a sack of shit whose entire livelihood and career revolved around spreading hate and facilitating violence.

[–] LoafedBurrito@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Buh buh buh , his wife and kids!!! He was a religious man and was bringing back faith!!!

No he was a radical right wing racist who got famous by being hateful and spreading lies and propaganda. Most of the world didn't even know he had a family, so it's irrelevant at this point.

[–] ArmchairAce1944@discuss.online 11 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I hate the 'he had a family' line. Does that mean killing single men and women or people who never married makes it somehow OK? Like if Charlie Kirk was both single and celibate and said he was 'married to his principles and mission' (with no indication of being a closeted gay man or asexual) would that have made his murder more acceptable?

Countless evil people were married and had kids. Stalin was known to be a doting father. Saddam was also known by his children as a very kind and affectionate father. Roy de Mayo, one of the most infamous mafia hitmen, had a family and his family life was so quiet and unremarkable that his children had absolutely no idea whatsoever that their father killed people for a living (and his son had a nervous breakdown when he saw the movie Murder Machine in the early 90s, which was about his then dead dad).

Well, in all fairness, that's pretty extreme stuff to repeat.

[–] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 41 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

So the plan is to identify people who find joy in the appropriate treatment of a fascist and then get them fired from their jobs. Some will take it on the chin and move on, sure, but others might find a bunch of new free time in their schedules plus a fresh axe to grind and decide they have nothing left to lose. Couldn't possibly backfire.

Cancel the Hate

How weird is it that your group is named after what happened.

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 32 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Sounds like just the kind of place that we definitely shouldn't flood with false reports.

You know, there was a couple of authoritarians that used tattling to suppress dissent.

The USSR and Nazi Fucking Germany. And CCP.

That's where we are now. We're ruled by children.

This is what happens when children gain power.

"It's not cancel culture when we do it."

The only moral cancel culture is my cancel culture.

More like Cancel the Truth.

I don't really see much hate on the people they are DOXing.

They're a lot more salty since the whole Herman Cain award thing.

We hanged people like Charlie Kirk at Nuremberg. He didn't deserve to be assassinated, but Kirk did deserve a life sentence in prison for crimes against humanity and incitement to genocide.

[–] CannonFodder@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago

We should join in and say in honor of Kirk's memory, his wishes should be followed - to release the Epstein files.

[–] RickyRigatoni@retrolemmy.com 13 points 2 weeks ago

We can flood these reports with ai generated ones.

[–] CptEnder@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Lmao so glad I work in an industry that wouldn't give a flying fuck if I danced on that Nazis grave. It would actually provide quite joy to watch them screech over failing to try to get me fired haha.

Someone should stand up another site to catalog all the hateful things their own kind are saying about everyone else.

The hate was canceled by the 30.06 bullet, any other hate is on their own conscience

Send them emails titled "this guy is really harming the reputation of Charlie Kirk" with links to clips of Charlie Kirk.

Sounds like a lot of companies are going to lose their best workers and those workers are going to leave a job that never gave them a raise and find a job paying them 1/3 more than they were making.

[–] HexesofVexes@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago

Sounds to me like a site called "historyofhate" should be founded and every hateful comment said about everyone by anyone should be created and made searchable ^_^

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

But I thought we hated cancel culture?

Are.. are you telling me that the right wingers are all selfcentered hypocrites?

[–] drmoose@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Anyone has a link? I only see cancel hate related to holocaust denial.

Would be a shame if someone went to that website and wasted nazi's time.

Funny how they talk like hippies when it's about them and like nazis when it's about anyone else.
