Let's remember Charlie Kirk for who he was.

"I can't stand the word empathy, actually. I think empathy is a made-up, new age term that does a lot of damage." -Charlie Kirk

It isn't an entire side. You can't just see people in black & white. Many of these people are like past versions of ourselves, the ones that need people to guide them. You can't force everyone to see things from your point of view. A lot of times they just need good examples. If they aren't arguing in good faith, then try a different strategy or call them out. Or change the discussion to how you feel they're not being honest, and ask them why they feel the need to lie. Just be genuine but violence doesn't solve things. It will hurt the causes you care about more than anything else right now.

You honestly believe people didn't try all those things with Charlie Kirk?
