@marco_7945 to your comment on my most recent short. On you saying and I quote. “So was hitler. Your point?” Well here’s my point for you. My point isn’t that Charlie Kirk = good person. My point is that celebrating assassination is wrong, no matter who it happens to. If you justify violence against people you dislike, you’re opening the door for the same to happen to others—including people you agree with. Comparing Charlie Kirk to Hitler is absurd. Kirk was a political activist. Hitler orchestrated genocide and global war. We can condemn Kirk’s politics without pretending they’re on the same scale as Hitler’s crimes If your standard is that anyone you dislike ‘deserves to be killed,’ then you’re throwing away any claim to moral high ground. I’m saying no one should be assassinated for their views. That’s a value worth defending, no matter the politics.
