“ [M E M quoting he article I excerped?] This is pure unvarnished truth from Patton. Charlie Kirk did not deserve what happened to him, but nor did his victims deserve the hell that he unleashed on them. If Americans are going to build a more peaceful future for ourselves we must condemn political violence while also condemning the hateful, bigoted rhetoric that made Kirk a multimillionaire.”
[ M E M responding: ]
It’s pretty clear to me that this wasn’t trying to say Charlie Kirk got what he deserved. It says right out that he did not deserve what happened to him. The argument is we shouldn’t just be condemning political violence but also the hateful, bigoted rhetoric that made Kirk a multimillionaire. I always condemn political violence WB that you just ignore. I did that on that very thread btw.

“ In weasel fashion, you didn't say it directly, you just QUOTED another leftist, saying exactly what YOU believe, that Charlie Kirk through open debate and activism, "brought about and caused his own death. "

Nowhere did they say that. She was saying that he didn’t deserve what happened to him. I don’t understand how you turn that into the opposite.
There, right above, you (1) condemn violence and then (2) say Charlie Kirk got what he deserved, IN THE SAME SENTENCE.
- It says right out that [1] he did not deserve what happened to him. The argument is we shouldn’t just be condemning political violence [2] but also the hateful, bigoted rhetoric that made Kirk a multimillionaire. [Then back to 1 ] I always condemn political violence WB that you just ignore. I did that on that very thread btw.
And you did this over and over in the linked Charlie Kirk topic.
