Transcript: Tweet by Matt Forney from September 10, 2025: “Charlie Kirk being assassinated is the American Reistag fire. It is time for a complete crackdown on the left. Every Democratic politician must be arrested and the party banned under RICO. Every libtard commentator must be shut down. Stochastic terrorism. They caused this.”

    Sure. Take it to court and let’s get to the bottom of who started what. Even a corrupt court will have a hard time trying a case with so little evidence implicating the Democratic party. On the other hand, the countersuit would be lit cuz!

    You know my high ass thought of something.

    There’s a loneliness epidemic and at the same time the biggest spread of hatred I have ever seen in my lifetime.

    A bunch of men feel sad, alone, and hatred. That makes me sad.

    All while being conned by the billionaire class.

        Nah, they’re people. And people are capable of evil. To pretend they’re not people 1. Stoops to their level and 2. Creates a false reality where that evil isn’t possible

      Isn’t it?

      Because accoridng to google

      “The Night of the Long Knives was a three-day purge from June 30 to July 2, 1934, in which Adolf Hitler ordered the Nazi SS to murder over 80 leaders of the Sturmabteilung (SA), including its chief Ernst Röhm, and other political opponents, consolidating his absolute power, securing the support of the German army, and establishing a precedent for extrajudicial killings”

    This is wrong on so many levels, it’s poetic.

    Night of the long knives - they will be surprised.

    Classic abusive “look at what you made me do!” rhetoric.

    I also think that wanting to kill half the population is a bit of an overreaction. Especially so, since they’re already ahead in the kill count.

      Yeah, Nazis burned it and blamed the Jews Communists, then used it as an excuse to start rounding them up.

      Short answer: Yes

      But we live in a time where history is rewritten daily. Hitler was a socialist - bullshit for example.

        People were also conflating Hitler as a socialist then.

        The whole point of that was to discredit actual socialism. It wasn’t socialism to them, but a dog whistle for nationalism.

        It would have been more accurate to call that the National nationalist party.

          Hitler was a socialist… so as long you were wealthy, ayran, and loyal. Eveyone else got brutal totalitarism and capitalism while fed to a war machine to keep the lie going.

    The ‘left’ doesn’t worship politicians like gods. I would honestly be indifferent if 90% of the Democratic establishment got wiped out.

    The fact that they’re frothing at the mouth without any actual evidence of the shooters ideology is all you need to know about their intentions.

      Right? That guy needs to chill out. Charlie Kirk was worth no more, and probably even less, than any of the other hundreds of people that die any and every day from gun violence. People on the Right have literally just discovered what America is all about, I guess?

      lol

      Let them target Democratic leaders instead of trans people and Palestinian protestors, although they would do all 3.

      I would bet real money that this was done by the current administration… just like the bs attempt at shooting trump.

    They are so fucking stupid. They don’t understand what the historical events mean. They don’t understand who the villain is in Star Wars. It’s all fucking bizarro world in their minds.

      StarWars is fucked. You have the religious extremists known as “Jedi”. They travel around, engaging in galaxy wide human trafficking and kidnapping.

      So they can get their hands on kids and start training them as child soldiers to create obedient, dogmatic super soldiers.

      I’m not saying they’re the only villains. But they are definatly not the “good guys”

        The real trick to Star wars is knowing every side is evil.

        Just ones realistically evil and the other is cartoonishly evil.
