GenZedong

If he hadn’t post this, I wouldn’t have known that things would get worse. Thank god for BE.

Seriously tho, it’s getting hard to tell whether he’s just trolling nowadays or if he genuinely believes what he says on social media anymore. Who hasn't anticipated that this incident will be used to incite even more violent retaliation against the left. He says this as if he were the first with this take. Acceleration of the cruel inevitable or not, the right would have always done what they wanted but they’ll surely grasp at whatever reasons to support their cause. Hate it how his superfans get so worked up when you give him some criticisms and god is he so quick to call people idiots or assume others are American for questioning him instead of engaging in good faith discussion. I’m a huge fan of his work but he can be so exhausting sometimes.

I’m not gonna pretend that Chuck dying won’t accelerate our decline into martial law, but I’m not gonna pretend to be sad about it. He’s not Jesus and he’s not MLK.

I also get suspicious of people who make noise about fighting the power and being super radical while parroting mainstream fash talking points and pearl-clutching liberal hysteria. Enough people are telling us to be sad/angry over whiteboy podcaster #92 getting merced that we don’t need to bother saying it with them. Just let us have this win.

First of all, Charlie deserved it.

However gotta admit, my first thoughts were along these lines. It took me to see the reactions of the right wing pundits in my country to go full party mode just to spite those fuckers.

The killing of the this horse gummed warmonger was most likely in house hit by god knows who. However i don't think it is in any way useful for the left or right

Thought this would be a good time to share my Bad Empanada soyjak.

oh let us have some fun

Man BE is on a streak of bad takes lately its kinda sad.

I dont understand this position. Does anyone really think the far right just, wasnt going to do anything before? Like they were waiting for something like this to happen? As if Trump wasnt already deploying the national guard in major cities? Like come on, the ruling class does not act out of petty revenge, and by this logic there is no actual action communists can take because anything can serve to provoke the far right.

And werent people saying this same thing about Trumps failed assassination last year? And nothing happened

Too many Americans are scared of things changing and want to just put the blame on whatever. They want to cling to the idea that the path we are on could somehow be avoided if X Y or Z didnt happen. If this event somehow changes what you think the future holds then you havent been paying attention.

he's been getting more and more terminally online

Acting like people can't comprehend that things can be worse is pretty funny, ngl.

Like imagine if I posted on lemmygrad and was like, "I know it's a bit hard for you people to understand, but the working class is a thing."

This isn't even a take or analysis lol, it's just an internet personality over-inflating their own sense of awareness compared to others. "I better get online and say this, nobody will think of it otherwise."

What the utility in saying this? I mean yeah, no shit, things can get worse but they actively have been getting worse for a very long time now. Right wingers being genuinely scared is a good thing. You should be scared to hold hateful beliefs

if only those dudes didn't lite fire to the reichstag, nazi germany wouldn't have existed 😔

Who killed Charlie KKKirk? And why?

When he talks about “things getting worse than they are already”, he’s talking about getting banned from imperial social media and losing his ability to monetize posting. That’s the thing we should be so scared of that we should cling to the status quo.

I know he has some relevancy, but he's a transphobic and ableist fuck, I don't think we should be caring much about him or his takes.

BadEmpanada and many other streamers live on drama like a vampire feeds on blood

This is the kind of thing is expect from an American leftist content creator, as ot would make sense to police your community into not getting targeted for stupid reasons, or simply for the sake of making your propaganda accessible to as of yet non-aligned people.

Yet it's somewhat strange coming from BE. It's not entirely false, but coming from someone who constantly stabs at the 1st world, it's odd for him to show any concern. It feels more like he's being a contrarian for the sake of it, rather then actually trying to aid any rhetorical struggle.

I won't deny I'm concerned about how the US will crack down on leftists for this. However, I also hold the position that the ruling class already puts all to its disposal for the sake of destroying us, so why would they even need a justification on the first place? Kirk was so clearly a fascist that any "normal" citizen is more likely to empathize with leftists being suppressed over Kirk's own death.

As much as we rag on Americans, it's not exactly correct to think they support Charlie Kirk. Even a slight investigation into him, which can be done in passing during a conversation, reveals him to be a massive peace of shit who had thus coming.
