Jesus said,

18 “If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. 19 If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. 20 Remember the word that I said to you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours. 21 But all these things they will do to you on account of my name, because they do not know him who sent me. 22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have been guilty of sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin. 23 Whoever hates me hates my Father also. 24 If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin, but now they have seen and hated both me and my Father. 25 But the word that is written in their Law must be fulfilled: ‘They hated me without a cause".
 
Right-wingers on X today still blaming the left — college professors, Democrats, so on and so forth.

Jesse Watters calling Democrats murderers.

Stephen Miller pointing to the reaction of some to Kirk’s tragic death and saying there is a terrorist movement on the left.

They aren’t letting go of the narrative. Trying to intensify things.

Folks here who are Trump supporters — how dangerous would you say this is?

The Donald and Junior are both pieces of shit. That fact aside, I find it incredibly amusing how both sides are absolutely convinced that the issue of violence and dangerous rhetoric is only from the other side.... When it is so obviously not the case.

This is the problem with monetized social media and all of the legacy news sources that are now competing with monetized social media. You have to pander to one side or the other, to some degree, to stay afloat. CNN probably does the best job of trying to be balanced and, not coincidentally, they are struggling the most of the three cable news stations.

For the most part, people just don't want to hear balanced. They want confirmation bias. They want to be told that their anger is well placed and justified.

MAGA Turns on College For Not Firing Kirk-Bashing Professors

Clemson University is facing growing scrutiny amid deepening public backlash to a professor’s social media activity about the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
www.thedailybeast.com www.thedailybeast.com

“… Clemson University has faced massive backlash, and even calls to be defunded, from Republican lawmakers and the late far-right activist’s online followers after failing to dismiss one of its staff members for making comments critical of Kirk following his death on Wednesday.

… Melvin Earl Villaver Jr, an assistant professor of audio technology and global black studies in Clemson’s Department of Interdisciplinary Studies, is understood to have shared a variety of posts ridiculing Kirk’s assassination.

“Worried about DEI and DIED instead,” one now-deleted post reportedly read, with another adding: “Charlie Kirk recently said to a Palestinian that there’s no such thing as Palestinians. Well now look… there’s no longer such a thing called Charlie Kirk.” …”

.., Clemson has since said in a statement it “unequivocally condemns any and all expressions that endorse, glorify or celebrate political violence.” While the college did not directly address any of the posts Villaver is understood to have written, Republican State Representative Thomas Beach claims the university has not yet taken action against either him, or any other members of staff who may have made negative comments about Kirk in recent days.

… “The SC legislature appoints six members of the 13-member board of trustees at Clemson,” Beach posted on X. “I think we need to know which board members didn’t want these leftist professors fired.” …”

Yeah, it’s been absolutely hilarious the attempted lionization of this dude. It’s horrific the way that he died. He did not deserve to die the way that he died. Nobody does. But he, through his own choices, created the circumstances that made himself a target for a deranged lunatic. Of course, that does not mean that his death is his fault. It’s not. But it does mean that the folks trying to make this guy out to be some saint who was killed only because he claimed to love Jesus Christ, sound like goobers.

Impossible. I refuse to believe that Saint Charles ever said any of those things.

Fake news!
 
Loony Loomer’s ugly ass better be careful what she wishes for with the dictator thing. Throughout history most dictators end up disemboweled, strung up in the streets, hung, or otherwise deposed.
