I'm already exhausted with this. The over simplification of if you're not crying about it you're celebrating it is tiring. I'm not celebrating a horrible death like that, but I'm also not going to pretend he was an awesome guy. My social media is full of phony posts from people about Charlie Kirk. I think it's horrible, no kids should lose their father like that, and I don't want to see that happen to anyone. There's so much theatre from people who don't give a damn when kids are murdered, or didn't care when the Minnesota politicians were shot, but now are very concerned about leftist violence.

I talked with one person I know, and it went poorly. They had a post that said pray for Charlie Kirk.

They were just arguing that he was killed for having an opinion. I stated it's horrible that he died and no kids should lose their father, but that Kirk was a-ok with that happening to other people, and made comments stating as much right after a school shooting a couple years ago. I said he also was a little more than a guy with some opinions, he had influence. He wouldn't have prayed for anyone.

The response I got was, "well he was executed for having an opinion, I guess you should be happy he's dead."

I'm already burnt out on this.
