      The left DOES AGREE. Some randos on the internet shouldn’t be who we look to, when every left leaning pundit and politician has called this terrible. Meanwhile, Trump just said that right wing extremists are justified.

      she didn’t have to say anything at all to begin with. always so interesting what celebrities choose to speak out about! thanks for the lecture on the “nuance of humanity” though, amanda seyfried

      It’s a little both sides-y for my taste, but at least she denounced his messaging. Liberal public intellectuals (Ezra Klein) and elected Democrats (Gavin Newsom) are lionizing Charlie as a free-thinking political activist.

      It’s crazy that she has to ‘explain it like I’m 5’ to these conservative cry babies. I doubt any of the conservative critics would’ve batted an eyelid if something terrible happened to a a progressive political journalist/commentator.

      If this is her opinion, fair enough. But I will never understand why celebrities feel the need to comment on these situations that have nothing to do with them. If it were me, I’d play dumb and not say a word about these kinds of controversies and just mind my business. Why invite controversy and back lash when you don’t have to.

      Is it too soon to just stop talking about Charlie Kirk? Can we shift it to gun violence in general now? Good lord I’m about to get off social media!

      No one should have to experience the level of violence that Charlie Kirk wished upon women and people of color every day of his life

    9. starlightdemonfriend on

      She has one of the most leveled and appropriate takes of this situation that I’ve seen.

      I don’t understand the outrage. Don’t we make fun of the gruesome ways people died all the time? I’ve seen some incredibly distasteful Halloween costumes and nobody cared 

    14. cleanpapertiger on

      It wouldn’t shock me if the celebrities who said something and then added “but I don’t think anyone should ever be killed” in a later post have had credible threats made against them.

    15. Confident-Service256 on

      Republicans only care when it affects them. Notice how they didn’t mention the school shooting that day?

    16. Glizzmerelda on

      I don’t think I disagree with this. Shooting Kirk means nothing and honestly we are very lucky the shooter only hit one person and didn’t (accidentally or otherwise) hurt more people. I’m not torn up about Charlie Kirk and the heralding him as a hero of free speech and debate is disgusting, but shooting people is not a great thing and is so common place in the US that it happens to literal children.

      If this is how you feel fine, just don’t tell POC and other minorities how they can feel.

      She commented originally on some post saying he was hateful so this was the cleanup (since I’m sure she got some threats).

      Sorry for whataboutism but when Melissa Hortman got killed media stopped talking about it after literally 2 or 3 days…

      Just now people realized the vastness of gun violence in this country? That was the tuning point? Ok I guess…

    20. Hour-Material-3827 on

      I just saw a baby in Gaza screaming with a torn arm and blood everywhere on instagram. Everyone needs to shut the fuck up about this guy

    22. mcgillhufflepuff on

      I get making a statement like this after the first one if you’re a public figure because she may be trying to stop the amount of harassment she’s received over it. Unless some of you all are famous, we’re going to have a different experience sharing the post she did.

    23. GrayHairLikeClaire on

      I think Amanda is partly correct here: the United States has had far too many violent deaths. And I think part (NOT ALL) of the celebrity response to Kirk’s death has stemmed from the fact that violence, especially gun violence, has become so normalized that it’s just another thoughts and prayers to schedule with the social media team, y’know? There are absolutely secret MAGA celebrities and liberals showing their whole asses, but there are also normies who didn’t know who Kirk was before his death, and only heard “conservative freeze peach activist murdered in public”, and of course they expressed horror at it.

      I had therapy yesterday with my queer therapist who was able to affirm a lot of the stuff that made me feel like I was going completely insane. As a queer person, a Jewish anti-zionist, and an AFAB nonbinary person married to a trans woman, Charlie Kirk and his ilk terrorized me and my kin for fucking years. The constant low-level abuse gnaws at you in a way that’s impossible to describe to someone who’s only just coming into the situation now. It’s abhorrent to see people mourning him, but I do think part of it is that there is so much fucking violence–thanks in part to Kirk and the world he created–that some of this response is just water off a social media intern’s back.

      Anyway, rest in piss CK, you truly reaped the rewards of your life’s work.

      This ain’t even both sides. This is a position left leaning people have been at forever. The only reason she gives a shit now is because it was by white for white. And frankly, nobody really ever questioned whether or not this country “grieves too many senseless and violent deaths and shootings.” We been said that. No reason to act like that is a disagreeable position, but she has no choice because she’s full of shit.

    27. slowsundaycoffeeclub on

      I think it’s important to read this post in the context of what’s she’s been posting lately. Very anti-CK and denouncement of his rhetoric.

    28. LowNo7792 on

      I just don’t understand why so many celebs feel a need to comment on a podcaster passing away-an extremely conservative one at that who inferred awful things he would make his daughter endure because of his own personal opinions. I don’t support murder either I DONT THINK MANY PPL DO!! I don’t understand how people lack critical thinking to this degree, we as humans are truly becoming more stupid as time goes on

    29. Traditional-Wing8714 on

      no one who can read needed this justification, though. the only person who wanted him dead was his murderer

    32. cactusjude on

      Just seems dishonourable to his memory. He emphatically spoke *against* empathy… So why waste it on him?
