Yesterday's Tiedrich rant: "this is the last fucking thing we need right now"
Link: https://www.jefftiedrich.com/p/this-is-the-last-fucking-thing-we
Jesus Fucking Christ, seriously? with all the bullshit going on right now, some idiot — and, as I’m writing this, we don’t know who it was, or their ideology — shot and killed Charlie Kirk.
let me state right up top that political violence solves nothing, and only creates new problems — and oh boy, are we ever in a world of new problems. right now, every establishment Democrat is denouncing political violence.
“Today’s act of political violence in Utah against Charlie Kirk is absolutely disgusting and unacceptable. We don’t have to agree on everything, but we should all agree on this: political violence is wrong, and has no place in our democracy.”
as for the Republicans, I wish I could say the same — but they’re not. even though (again, as of this writing) we have no idea what motivated the unknown killer, these dimestore detectives have already decided who to blame — because of course they have.
“The Left is the party of murder.”
pro tip for the Space Nazi: ‘the left’ is not a political party.

My apologies for not posting this yesterday, because I was busy doing other stuff. It's still a great blog and I would like to share it to DU.
Tiedrich's main point is that immediately after the murder of Charlie Kirk the Repukes wasted no time in heaping blame on Dems and "the Left." It's almost like a coordinated effort by all conservatives. And yet there's no indication that the perpetrator of this heinous act had any connection to the Democratic Party.
Please read the rest on "Everyone is entitled to my own opinion."
