My AR15 says "Trans Rights!" : r/SocialistRA

There’s really no way to whitewash this—the radical left has declared war on us. Not a metaphorical war, not just a battle of ideas ungraciously waged in op-eds at the NYT or WaPo, but a war with literal, physical casualties.

And we just saw this with the assassination of Charlie Kirk. It was the flashpoint of a culture that has been soaking itself in gasoline for years. And the thing that should chill you to the bone is not just that this happened, but that so many of them are cheering.

Mainstream journalists, anchors with polished smiles, can barely contain their glee. Social media timelines are full of “he had it coming” posts, as if a young father being murdered on a stage was simply the karmic cost of being conservative. This is where we are.

The same people who lecture us about “fascism” are now celebrating political assassinations. The same people who cry about “Christian nationalism” are openly fantasizing about killing Christians.
