Outspoken gun advocate Charlie Kirk famously said, "It's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment."

Well ... okay. But, if that's true, "Some outspoken gun advocate deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment is the cost of doing business."

So, return to your homes, there's nothing to see here.

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.

It's our Horst Wessel moment.

The big difference is Wessel was killed by Communists,  Kirk was shot by a Groyper.  I know they're spinning a narrative that he was swayed left by evil college professors, but that's pretty blatantly untrue.  We'll see how it comes out, but there's a definite possibility of it ending up causing more right wing infighting

It was reported by the "local" Gannett owned newspaper, and shared on their FB account.

I replied that I assume that we'll be doing this from now on for every school shooting even if the victims are just children.

Got a lot of likes and one person said they'd pray for me.

Think for Yourself, Schmuck! / Blake and the BIP

Last post by Pope Mome Apocrypha - September 17, 2025, 12:22:00 AM

So I'm a bit of a William Blake scholar, but it's been a while since I've revisited my dear friend's works, being before I was introduced to Discordianism.

I have now found myself with some free time, and access to many books on the subject of Blake's particular brand of madness, and find myself drawing many parallels to the ideas of the Black Iron Prison that I think would be interesting to pursue.

My question is this, would anyone here be interested in a work like that, or would even wish to participate in such "research" with me, to create some kind of profane composition.

And, if you are interested, what parts of the BIP and/or Blake would you like to see featured? Or even beyond the BIP perhaps, into general Discordian irreligion.

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.

Diabolical.

After reading your post, any thoughts I had about my own lack of sympathy for Kirk being too stone cold have been laid to rest.

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.
