Transcript: Tweet by Matt Forney from September 10, 2025: "Charlie Kirk being assassinated is the American Reistag fire. It is time for a complete crackdown on the left. Every Democratic politician must be arrested and the party banned under RICO. Every libtard commentator must be shut down. Stochastic terrorism. They caused this."

Since it turned out it was a Republican that killed him. Are they gonna do the same now?

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

So they’re basically admitting they’re Nazis looking for a reason to genocide liberals

[–] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

I mean they were mask-off when they tried to lynch politicians and storm the seat of government.

So they’re admitting they’re the NAZIS and will use the shooting as a false flag to attack the left even knowing that the shooter came from a MAGA family and was probably a right winger himself?

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 2 points 6 days ago

It's rich seeing someone on the right say this is the result of stochastic terrorism. Stochastic terrorism has been Trump and MAGA's thing since 2016.

[–] BigMacHole@sopuli.xyz 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Thank GOD Joe Biden and Merrick Garland DIDNT Stoke the Political Fire when they had the Chance to STop all this!

[–] Novocirab@feddit.org 1 points 6 days ago

Yeah, all Trump wanted was conciliation and fair debate, but Democrats were having none of that

[–] AlexLost@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago

Sure. Take it to court and let's get to the bottom of who started what. Even a corrupt court will have a hard time trying a case with so little evidence implicating the Democratic party. On the other hand, the countersuit would be lit cuz!

[–] DrFistington@lemmy.world 115 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (4 children)

The 'left' doesn't worship politicians like gods. I would honestly be indifferent if 90% of the Democratic establishment got wiped out.

The fact that they're frothing at the mouth without any actual evidence of the shooters ideology is all you need to know about their intentions.

[–] FabledAepitaph@lemmy.world 44 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Right? That guy needs to chill out. Charlie Kirk was worth no more, and probably even less, than any of the other hundreds of people that die any and every day from gun violence. People on the Right have literally just discovered what America is all about, I guess?

lol

[–] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 25 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Definitely wasn't as much of a tragedy as the kids who died the same day in Colorado.

Wasn't the Reichstag fire a false flag?

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 82 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Yeah, Nazis burned it and blamed the ~~Jews~~ Communists, then used it as an excuse to start rounding them up.

[–] klay1@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

They caught a guy, Lubbe. As far as i know it is not clear why he set the fire as the Nazis never had any evidence. There are 3 theories:

  • the Nazis ordered him to do it.
  • he was doing it as a communist
  • he just did it as vandalism/arsonism

But we do know that they absolutely used it to crack down against the communists--

[–] JohnSwanFromTheLough@lemmy.world 50 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They blamed the communists for the fire.

Short answer: Yes

But we live in a time where history is rewritten daily. Hitler was a socialist - bullshit for example.

[–] neukenindekeuken@sh.itjust.works 28 points 1 week ago (1 children)

People were also conflating Hitler as a socialist then.

The whole point of that was to discredit actual socialism. It wasn't socialism to them, but a dog whistle for nationalism.

It would have been more accurate to call that the National nationalist party.

[–] piccolo@sh.itjust.works 18 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Hitler was a socialist... so as long you were wealthy, ayran, and loyal. Eveyone else got brutal totalitarism and capitalism while fed to a war machine to keep the lie going.

Go ahead and ban the party. We'll make a new one. Name it the FUCK CHARLIE KIRK Party.

[–] mcbenavides85@piefed.social 55 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Kirk WAS left leaning when he died.

[–] k0e3@lemmy.ca 24 points 1 week ago

Holy shit that's fucking brutal

Did trump have kirk assassinated to distract from the epstein shit? As they always say on the right, I'm just asking questions...

They are so fucking stupid. They don’t understand what the historical events mean. They don’t understand who the villain is in Star Wars. It’s all fucking bizarro world in their minds.

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

StarWars is fucked. You have the religious extremists known as "Jedi". They travel around, engaging in galaxy wide human trafficking and kidnapping.

So they can get their hands on kids and start training them as child soldiers to create obedient, dogmatic super soldiers.

I'm not saying they're the only villains. But they are definatly not the "good guys"

[–] Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The real trick to Star wars is knowing every side is evil.

Just ones realistically evil and the other is cartoonishly evil.

THEY THINK they are punisher, and superman.

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 37 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I didn't even realize the right new what stochastic terrorism was. If they did I assumed they wouldn't talk about it considering how often they engage in it

Most of them are christians they are well versed in hypocrisy.

[–] KeavesSharpi@lemmy.ml 17 points 1 week ago

I didn’t even realize the right new what stochastic terrorism was.

Obviously considering the context, they don't. An assassination isn't stochastic terrorism, and nobody on the left is calling for violence. That's them. So the accusation is a confession in this case. This post is literally stochastic terrorism, and a call for violence.

[–] Lasherz12@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

Ironic that this very statement from them contains a hefty handful of it.

I don't think anyone is afraid of Meal Team Six.

[–] Bonesince1997@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago

Those J6 "rioters" were some dumb motherfuckers. Too bad they got a gift of little to no punishment. In fact, I think the shooter was one of them, that was let out by Trump (not really, but that'd be something). Soft on crime, hard on minorities Trump.

And at the very least, covering for pedophiles.

We killed Nazis before, targets, you’ll be no different.

You know my high ass thought of something.

There’s a loneliness epidemic and at the same time the biggest spread of hatred I have ever seen in my lifetime.

A bunch of men feel sad, alone, and hatred. That makes me sad.

All while being conned by the billionaire class.

[–] Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 days ago

Turns out social media was a poor replacement t for community spaces.

Matt Forney is already a well-known Nazi. He has his own ADL entry.

[–] bstix@feddit.dk 12 points 1 week ago

Classic abusive "look at what you made me do!" rhetoric.

I also think that wanting to kill half the population is a bit of an overreaction. Especially so, since they're already ahead in the kill count.

[–] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

Does this guy have any public speaking engagements coming up?
