Pierre and Scheer has a lot to say about freedom of speech but get real quiet when Canadians get threatened.

Melissa Hortman and her husband were assassinated. THEY WERE ASSASSINATED.

When Paul Pelosi was attacked, the MAGAts jeered and made up stupid lies about the attacker being his gay lover. An 80+ year old man attacked in his own home by a right wing nutter and they thought it was funny.

Now they are crying like little babies because TinyFace got shot and sane people are pointing out that he was quite okay with people being shot to protect the second amendment.

Things that are violent:

  • Imprisoning and deporting innocent immigrants

  • State-sanctioned murder of black people via police

  • Legislating away the human rights of trans people

  • Forcing women to give birth against their will

The real illiberal, fundamentalist, totalitarian terrorists are on the right. I didn't shed a tear for Kirk and I wouldn't for PP or JK, either.

For JKR's next trick, I'd see to see her analysis on how those statements relate to her own behavior. Let me add my own item to the list:

If you act in direct contradiction to your own stated beliefs, you're a hypocrite.

[–] prodigalsorcerer@lemmy.ca 14 points 11 months ago

It's weird. This is the first time I found myself agreeing with jkr, and I had to read it a few times to make sure I wasn't missing something.

[–] OliveMoon@lemmy.ca 40 points 11 months ago

They asked the UN for a minute of silence. WFT???

[–] resipsaloquitur@lemmy.world 39 points 11 months ago

Okay Joana, tell us how to change your beliefs about trans women.

[–] SereneSadie@lemmy.myserv.one 32 points 11 months ago

Joanne Rowling literally believes transgender people should be persecuted.

By her own fucking definition, she is a terrorist.

I hope the black mold leeches into her eyeballs.

Freedom of speech means freedom to rejoice when nazis die.

I'm not advocating murder but I'll laugh my fucking ass off when it happens to a piece of shit like Charlie Kirk.

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Edit: carotid Kirk*

So this asshole gets literally what he deserves as he said school shootings where just a fact of life and he got killed in a school shooting it's just poetic justice. But two democrates get assassinated and they could care less. They are already blaming the left even though they don't know who shot Kirk, I mean Trumps attempted "assignation" was done by a republican.

[–] TheObviousSolution@lemmy.ca 28 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

They want to "take action" against "praising, rationalizing, or making light of the killing of" their people, but actively go out of their way to encourage praising, rationalizing, or making light of the killing of their opponents. There are several words and an entire psychological spectrum of study related to that sort of rationale.

I really wish pp would go out and find a real job already.

The free speech tard minds at work here.

When one of theirs gets shot, we celebrate it, but when one of ours gets shot, we'll threaten anyone who isn't in mourning

[–] HasturInYellow@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago (21 children)

At this point, I'm going to do whatever I want with no regard to what sorts of lists they are making or who they are tracking. I truly don't care. Show up at my house in the middle of the night and kidnap me. Go ahead. I'm so tired of this fucking place.

Charlie Kirk was a racist, fascist cunt rag, and now his shirt looks like one. Rot in piss bitch boy.

[–] bold_atlas@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Charlie Kirk 1993-2025 Lived like a bitch, died like a bitch. Gurgle gurgle.

What was that pp said about using anglo-saxon words ? and this lovely bullshit:

we need to put Canada first,” he said, pointing to what he called the Liberals’ β€œwoke criminal justice agenda” and β€œwoke agenda on spending.”

And reshitting a known vocal anti trans cunt while defending a known anti everything that isn't straight and white mouthpiece...

Pathetic.

And intended to incite.

I never thought I'd hear of a positive school shooting story coming out of the USA

"I want to underscore that foreigners who glorify violence and hatred are not welcome visitors to our country,” Landau said in a post on social media platform X."

So I guess we'll be deporting all the zionists then...right?

They didn't do this with the United Healthcare CEO.

Are they going to start sanctioning individuals all over the world? They did it with the judge in the Bolsonaro case, and it caused problems in Brazil generally. I suppose if they do it to large numbers of people outside of the US, it would end up forcing countries to stop cooperating generally with the US.

Side note, by her own definitions, JKR is illiberal. She is a fundamentalist. She is a totalitarian. And she definitely believes that some of her "political" opponents, trans people, should be punished with violence and death. What a telling post.

And PP sucks as usual.

Illiberal?

STFU trash terf.

What exactly are they going to do about it? Be bigger assholes?

1000% tariffs! 1500% tariffs! 900% tariffs!

[–] theacharnian@lemmy.ca 13 points 11 months ago

They need to import American style culture war so badly. They need us to be as polarized as the Americans so so so badly.

[–] Suffa@lemmy.wtf 13 points 11 months ago

US can lick my arse

[–] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Lol, considering what I've said online about Vance or Trump I suppose I was never getting in the USA anymore regardless. No big loss.

[–] SamuelRJankis@sh.itjust.works 13 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I think people should be weary that while you might not voluntarily go to fascism. Fascism is coming to you.

Pierre was essentially licking his lips and pointing the finger at the other side before Kirk's body even hit the ground. And a group of people certainly seems to be falling for it like usual.

The second in the list, isn't that what this two idiots are?

[–] magic_lobster_party@fedia.io 9 points 11 months ago

All of them, actually. Their entire political agenda is to deny the freedoms of selected groups of people.

[–] mycodesucks@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

Guess we citizens will have to praise twice as hard.

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 9 points 11 months ago

Threaten me with what? You have more fascists to stop before I would consider visiting.
