The meme will always be true. You simply can't hate them as much as they deserve. And then you're occasionally reminded that you still don't hate them enough.

Something occurred to me today, after Charlie Kirk's assassination, and the clips circling from predominantly MSNBC, but also CNN and such.

I can't speak for others, but I often think of "radical leftists" and more sort of "habitual leftists." The former skewing more young, and usually online, and the latter skewing older, sort of hippyish boomers, into Empathy™ and the like.

Well, seeing the absolutely insane and hateful shit MSNBC was pushing the day of a young man's murder, I was once again struck by how I don't hate journalists enough, despite my best efforts. MSNBC is mainstream, and appeals to the aforementioned sort of normie boomers and the like. Just like the radical left are being taught online, the boomers are being taught by MSNBC...they all think Charlie Kirk deserved to die.

That's the mainstream, corporate legacy media approved messaging: Charlie Kirk was a bad dude, brought this on himself, and probably deserved to get killed.

You think you hate journalists enough, but you don't. Because such a level of hatred is - probably for the best - physically fucking impossible.

The mainstream messaging for one of the most influential but milquetoast people on the right being gunned down in broad daylight, his life snuffed out...has been a muted, wink wink, nudge nudge...cheering.

I can't fully voice my disgust. This is insane, even for the media goblins. This shit puts "fiery but mostly peaceful" to shame in all but meme value. They're disgusting monsters.

Michael Malice is right about corporate journalists.

When I say corporate journalists are literal demons, only human in a biological sense, some people still think I am being hyperbolic or metaphorical
