Fuck all this "let's not celebrate the gruesome murder of a political opponent" bullshit, the man was a stochastic terrorist. Let's dunk on the douchebag and piss on his grave together. I hope more fascists like him get it through the neck

Flippant Anarchism. A lighter take on social criticism with the aim of agitation.
Post humorous takes on capitalism and the states which prop it up. Memes, shitposting, screenshots of humorous good takes, discussions making fun of some reactionary online, it all works.
This community is anarchist-flavored. Reactionary takes won't be tolerated.
Don't take yourselves too seriously. Serious posts go to !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.
-
Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.
-
No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

This is an anarchist comm. You don't have to be an anarchist to post, but you should at least understand what anarchism actually is. We're not here to educate you.

No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.

What could they do now they haven't done before?
What do you think happens when a stochastic terrorism generator... is violently killed, in a very 'televised' way?
A whole lot more stochastic terrorism.
Basically every big name Republican is just... blaming all Democrats, all liberals, all lefists.
They are calling for vengeance, on the scale of mass violence, mass incarcerations, no reservations, no quarter.
Facts and logic do not matter to these people, and they are right now in what I can only describe as a red out bloodlust.
... It can always get worse.
This is literally an apocalyptic death cult, and basically, one of their disciples has just been publically slain.
They've always wanted that. The question is if this allows them to push harder.
I mean yes, this... literally is directly what they wanted...
I can't predict the future, but... I did grow up with, come from a family of these kinds of people.
I very much fear that ... yeah, yes, this is sufficiently traumatizing to them that they will lash out.
My... first target of rage I'd suspect they'd pick, is trans people... they've already convinced themselves shooter was trans, I'd say any prominent trans left wing personalities are in a significant danger of some ... basically, a revenge killing.
EDIT: See my other comment.
At most this moved the current administration's timeline forward, and that is truly all.
It's been less than a year and look at this place. National Guard in Chicago was to be their next escalation after troops in LA and DC didn't provoke the reaction they're seeking.
This administration has 100% been deliberately agitating for any kind of violent response to their increasingly fascist actions, to legitimize extraordinary executive powers and military rule among their base. Once their base believes that's necessary, we are fucked.
This will almost certainly produce a violent response from the right, no disagreement there. But not one that wasn't already guaranteed to come our way. There's no amount of playing nice with fascists that ever gets them to stop or even slow down. This administration is elated to have this opportunity.
I mean... ok, if it moves the timeline forward... it still does that.
Is that not more or less the same thing as 'allows them to push harder'?
Beyond that quibble... pretty much totally agree, they've already done a lot of bad, and it probably was inevitable that some point or threshold.... actual, targetted shooting back would occur.
Unfortunately... I think we may have now hit, or at least come a lot closer to the 'we are fucked' point... see my other comment with Trump's response speech.
Yeah, I probably ought to have phrased that in a way that sounded less like disagreement. And I'm not eager to move the timeline forward and I'm aware of the harm that entails, so I shouldn't trivialize it either.
i dunno, maybe it'll be the national guard in orem instead of chicago
I somehow doubt that'll have the intended effect, and that would also be more consistent with the material reality than going to Chicago, AKA another point of doubt lol, but who knows?
Just because something has been done before doesn't mean we are necessarily prepared for it.
(Also I used the word "rebuttal" facetiously. I'm very much celebrating even though I'm simultaneously worried about how they're gonna react 🥳🎉🎉)
A lot. They haven't even begun ramping up the really serious fascist stuff yet. They are still in the early days of the 1930s.
I think there will be extra raids and troop deployments as a reaction; but overall not much change as a whole this week
