Assassination is NOT Self-Defense: I Condemn the Murder of Charlie Kirk

So, yesterday (9/11 Eve, of all days) a vile dumbass decided to murder an ultra right wing influencer.

Murder is not self-defense. It's the opposite of self-defense. I condemn this murder. It's heinous and immoral. Also, it's ineffective as a way to resist authoritarianism.

Let's look at what this vile dumbass has achieved as a result of their actions.

1. The vile dumbass has taken the national conversation away from Epstein and the economy.

2. The vile dumbass has enabled the Trump Administration to go on offense. The Administration will undoubtedly use this as an excuse to stifle dissent and persecute people who had nothing to do with this.

3. The vile dumbass has made Charlie Kirk a martyr.

Are you happy, vile dumbass?
