There was a vigil for Charlie Kirk in my town last night, and it had a bigger turnout than what we had here at the No Kings rally back in June and I have never been more radicalized than I am right now.

I kinda want to go to one of those and advocate for revenge against the Groypers.

I won't be voting for this guy again. But, even if he does decide to run for his current U.S. Senate seat again in 2028, he probably won't survive the Democratic Party's primary election. And, I'd rather see that happen than being left with the choice of voting for a Republican, or not voting for a candidate for that seat at all.

So, this article caught my attention:

Fetterman Begs Democrats to Stop Calling Trump Names

"This is not an autocrat," the Democratic Party black sheep says of a president accused of unprecedented attacks on his opponents and the political establishment.

And, as per this article:

"Don't ever compare anyone to Hitler, and those kinds of extreme things. Look what happened to Charlie Kirk—a man was shot," the senator said. "We can't compare people to these kinds of figures in history."

Well ... I disagree, as I've always been an "If it walks like a duck, ..." kind of guy. And, I have as much sympathy for outspoken gun fondler Charlie Kirk as he had in life for our many murdered, maimed, and traumatized school children.   

Anyway, I'm now pretty sure Fetterman also disapproves of my addressing him as "Genocide John," in the emails I send to him at https://www.fetterman.senate.gov/contact/.

We've got a big organized protest coming up Oct 18. I guess we'll see how radicalized they really are then.

Its on every news station several days on including international ones, maybe it's not coming up in day to day life but it's being portrayed as a crises point for the US.

I noticed a local (city/county) government building I pass on the way to work had their flags at half staff today. It's a red state, so I'm not surprised.

That's the only sign I've seen of this whole thing in the real world. It seems a lot bigger online. IRL it's a fart in the wind.

JD Vance is doing Charlie Kirk's next podcast.

Cue the circus music.

The point is they are going full seige mentality and they will get meaner and more forgiving of the horrifying shit the government they voted in is up to, where they were starting to realise they had been betrayed

[Later that week]

"We've been wronged by the left so let us round up and murder the homeless, as a treat"

I've called them the Republicult™, MAGAts, and most recently a tribe. The MSM is currently calling them the MAGA movement, Trumpists, right-wing populists, etc., although years ago they labeled themselves as The Tea Party, an instantly accepted rebrand of 'Merica's old KKK. And, I don't doubt that I, and the MSM, will refer to them by still other names in the future.

But, no matter what anyone calls them, what ultimately defines those people is their rage. They embrace it, feed upon it, thrive upon it, and willfully radiate it to the world. They are nothing without their rage. It's who they are. And, when they really get raging, even the homeless become their enemy. No one is truly safe from them, and as current events have shown, they're not even safe from themselves.

Even if the assassin himself publicly confesses that his motive for shooting Kirk was about the direction of far right-wing ideology and future tribal leadership, I doubt even that would convince the majority of his tribe that the left had nothing to do with any of this.
