Do you suppose that “concrete power” was obtained spontaneously? Kirk and his ilk paved the way for what we have now. He was one cog in a directed system of influence to instate fascism.

Even if the shooter targeted Mango Mussolini and succeeded, do you think that American fascism would vanish? No, because again it’s a system of influence that led to this point. A long, slow erosion of the social fabric brought on by bad-faith arguments, lies, and wanton disregard for the welfare of others - even jovial disregard for others.

This system of influence has told people that empathy is a weakness - the dead guy even said as much. I tend to disagree with that sentiment, but now we’re in “paradox of tolerance” territory.

I’ll take whatever win against fascism that comes. You speak of the shooter possibly being “the dumbest leftist” - I guess they should have consulted first? Like what national plan is there for any left movement in the US? If you mean “left” as in Democrat - there is no plan, just wait it out and keep sucking the corpo cock. If you mean “left” as in Anarchist, Socialist, etc. then there’s also no plan because Americans as a whole have made it clear that they love the boot, love consumerism, and hate change. So what imaginary grand strategy are you picturing?

Wow, you know nothing of this person and your take is “they did it for attention”? Holy shit… You kinda sound like the reich-wingers who are already calling the shooter a “liberal”.
