Banksy could not have hoped for a better outcome than this.

If your response is "fuck the right" or "fuck the left," you are the problem.

The algorithm is making us hate and kill each other.

Stop normalizing violence. The first step is to stop framing anybody who disagrees with you an existential threat.

NEVER let politics or social issues become your identity 💯

No one should be celebrating what happened to Charlie Kirk. Once you normalize political violence against your opponents, nothing is off the table. That’s not the kind of society anyone should want to live in. And if you think it won’t happen to your side, you’re very naive.

When your first reaction is "What party was the shooter?" and not "I need to pray for America", your priorities are SEVERELY out of line.

I wish we could all just get along.

If you cheer on the murder of someone for exercising their speech, you are infinitely closer to being a Fascist, than a Liberal.

Shooting or physically attacking anyone in anyway because you don't agree with their opinions is never going to be OK, for any person, in any walk of life.

Our politics MUST become this again, if we are to survive as a country...

If you disagree with someone, challenge them, debate them, or even mock them like I do. Resorting to violence is for cowards. Both sides spew nasty stuff to each other constantly and we are being conditioned to hate ourselves and each other.

This is the way.

Everyone is jumping to the worst possible expectations of what is going to happen as a result of Charlie Kirk’s killing I’ve heard from people today that I haven’t heard from in years, including people with completely opposite political views, wanting to make sure I was okay

A while back I put out these rules for the internet. 1. When we disagree, we fight. 2. We have a beer afterward. 3. When we agree, we unite. I got a lot of flack, surprisingly, for the line about the beer. People would ask, "Oh yeah, would you have a beer with Charlie Kirk?!"

Just as when a democratic rep. was murdered a few months ago, whole segments of the population mocking the killing of a political opponent, further radicalising their own and the other side. People talking left/right today are completely missing the wider trend due to bias.

People 'whatabouting' are missing the point that this movement to violence is increasingly prevalent in all areas and all groups. Western society is deeply unwell. Weak leaders across the spectrum who use every moment not to heal us but exploit our pain for their political gains.

Because this is what politicians and activists have cultivated for over a decade - and unfortunately it's all going to just fuel the next one...

No, I don't think edgy teenagers and emotionally stunted adults speak for the entirety of some political and societal concepts that have centuries of developed complexity and nuance, surprisingly 🙄

Great quote that we should be all working towards.
