I am neither a doctor nor a firearms expert so take this for what it’s worth:
My layman’s opinion having watched the video is that if he actually somehow does manage to beat the odds and survive, he ain’t gonna be a person who makes a living by talking anymore.
Its been said so much its lost all meaning but genuinely unironically: Absolute fucking legend.
Something something “great firewall”.
Reminds me of how China was stupid and backward for overreacting to sars and then overnight we suddenly were told to be very skeptical of their numbers and even question if they leaked it themselves. Legit…I take everything in western media with a huge grain of salt these days.
Ultimately whatever your feelings on this action…Isn’t this kinda the inevitable conclusion without any effort to de-escalate?
The ruling class has made it perfectly clear that any and all posturing and moralizing about political violence and human rights is complete cynical horseshit so inevitably you’re going to have people that call them on it. Wrong target, wrong method et al…I don’t know how we really are supposed to engage in that kind of dialogue when nobody in authority seems to have any interest in doing so.
My take exactly. From what I was able to find of Kimmel’s comments he wasn’t even making fun of Kirk’s death so much as he was (correctly) pointing out that the Trump administration is trying to use it cynically for politics. Even milquetoast ‘dissent’ from the jesters of our time is no longer allowed in the mainstream.
