  • Charlie Kirk was shot on the campus of Utah Valley University while being engaged in a dialogue with an audience member. In the wake of this terrible shooting, I lost sleep. Frankly, I would have used my body to stop the bullet on its path to kill a young father and husband like Charlie at age 31. There is so much more that Charlie could have done if he had lived to his full potential .

    Author spent the first few paragraphs talking about aliens, and then drops this drivel. I’m done feeling sorry for fascists. I will never lose sleep over the death of someone who’s made it their career to inspire hate and division. It’s absurd to call what he did “dialogue”. At no point was he arguing in good faith. He thrived on straw man arguments and racism.

    Nothing of value was lost, and I hope his family is ashamed of the monster they raised. The world is a better place without him.










  • You’d have to be entirely brainless to look at this landscape and think your hard work is going to “pay off” in any significant way.

    That “hard work” gets milked at every job. Your “hard work” is just “meets expectations” on your quarterly review and that’s why you won’t see a cost of living raise this year. Maybe if you work harder next year? And don’t take any time off?

    And then you see the billionaire class spending more money with a wave of their hand than you’ll ever see in your life. More than your entire community could pool together in your collective lifetimes. The billionaires didn’t “work hard” for it. They were born into it. Then you’ll see that massive waste of money implode at the bottom of the sea and wonder why people go hungry.

    If you’re going to work hard - make sure it’s for yourself / someone you care about. Employers are here to take advantage of you.
