The widespread attention and condemnation of Charlie’s death, and the mass firings that are happening as well, is showing the left what we all here have known for years now:

WE ARE THE SILENT MAJORITY.

They are absolutely terrified of this realization. Terrified that there wasn’t just one Charlie Kirk, but that there are tens of millions of Charlie Kirks. They are collectively experiencing what can only be described as an existential crisis triggered by massive cognitive dissonance.

A cry of a group of people who for so long have operated with smug impunity, punishing and shaming people for extolling the freedoms this great nation was founded upon.

Look at the front pages of Lemmy and Reddit. At this very moment, they are DESPERATELY and PATHETICALLY trying to drive a false narrative about the coward who killed Charlie and shove his killing under the rug.

They will continue to try to deflect as they have always done, avoid accountability, and hope that their lies will make this go away, so that they can continue stoking the flames of a culture war that no one wants.

That’s not going to happen. The people of this great nation see through the veil. We will continue to grow, as the left continues to self destruct.

We.

Are.

Winning.

And that scares them to their core.

      It’s also just an empty and immature outlook. Their ideology is a “majority” which makes it correct. It’s not about understanding the world, or making it better, it’s about doing what everyone else is doing and being the most “NPC” a person can be.

          It is quite dehumanising, which is why it never really took off on the left I think. But it matches CHUDs who never have an original thought or think for themselves far better than it does their opponents. Which is probably why it quickly turned into a straw man argument, where they will just act like their opponent just has no response or rebuttal to their position at all.

        i really don’t understand why people are always so desperate to fall in line. why don’t you go out and explore? read books? help someone out? go beyond your biases and learn something new? it’s a whole world out there! it’s so strange to me that people are willingly avoiding entire areas of life just so that they can stay in their “tribe”. i don’t understand that at all.
