That pretty much nails my feelings. Charlie Kirk is a huge piece of shit and I'm glad he died honestly. But I'd be a worse person if I made a personality out of mocking him for being dead. Can't we just take the win? Fate decided a bad person was over. I wish that could be that.
Who here is making this into their personality? It's the pearl clutchers here who are making this far bigger than it is.
People are still posting gleeful shit about his death. I don't care what anyone says, that's unhealthy.
Before 2016 (and to an even greater degree, 2025), I would never have wished death on another person. However, the last ten years have been very eye opening for me. There are people whose continued existence on this mortal plane is the direct cause of untold hatred, suffering, and death (all unnecessary).
Humanity, and quite literally the planet itself, would be much better off with them dead. And, in fact, their continued existence is a direct threat to all life on this planet.
Whether or not it's healthy is a separate question. I can't say I'm super happy about it. But it is what it is.
Yes, there are degrees and this Ubisoft guy isn't on the same level as, say, Trump or Stephen Miller. But they are both cancers on humanity, maybe just different "stages."
good things should be celebrated
things that improve the general state of humanity are generally considered good
Charlie Kirk was okay with people dying from gun violence if it meant fewer restrictions on guns. He fought against minority groups' rights. He was spreading dangerous rhetoric worldwide.
The Ubisoft guy helped found a popular video game company and was probably just a generic rich prick at worst.
The world is better off without Charlie Kirk. I doubt the world, let alone the video game industry, let alone even just Ubisoft, will get any better after today thanks to Guillemot's death.
There's a huge difference here.
I mean, yeah, Kirk was unquestionably the bigger turd but I'm happy both are gone. They're all part of the same overarching issue with this world.
Them just fixing their shit would be greatly preferable. But they wouldn't be part of the problem for very long if they were capable of that kind of introspection.
The point is was making had nothing to do with Charlie Kirk other than he was an example of people being gleeful about a death. Which is unhealthy.
