I'd wager less than 2% of the "conservative" "Christian*" right who are throwing tantrums about how we are "celebrating" Charlie Kirk's death even knew who Charlie Kirk was before this happened.
By "celebrating" they mean things like quoting Kirk's own words, or refusing to agree that he was a saint and a hero who was nice to everyone and never ever said anything hateful or harmful. If someone says, well, maybe that's not true, they immediately begin shrieking threats.
It's the power they want. They could not care less about who Kirk was, what he said, how he made his fortune. They don't care that he's dead, either, or how he died. They just love being able to hurt people.
I'm banning myself from social media for awhile. The smug bigotry is making me ill.
