    Do they really have martyrs, even? It seems like the far right are mostly chasing whatever grifter is currently pushing something for themselves. Dead people don’t push the grift anymore.

    Charlie Kirk seemed like a good candidate for martyr if anybody was but I’m not seeing much rallying around his name. Just a little bit of grift that his wife can keep active, not any big rallying flag.

    I say let the people pushing hate and death go ahead and die. Any old way of getting them off their podiums is fine with me; I’m not picky.

      Yeah because Kirk was killed by someone on their side so they don’t want to bring too much attention to that.

      The killer was white, male, and a right wing extreme is nut job. There’s not much for them to work with there.
