Tl;dr On June 14, 2025, Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband were killed in their home. The attacker, Vance Boelter, targeted multiple Democratic officials, also shooting Senator John Hoffman and his wife. Boelter had a hit list of 45 Democrats, posed as a police officer, and was arrested two days later on multiple charges.

@musingmouse Thanks for posting this. I was just too exhausted to say much else.

@tuckeresque

Such a mindset is terrible and repulsive.

@tuckeresque
I don't take pleasure at anybodys death. But some I don't pity.
@Nike_Leonhard I'm the same way. I couldn't agree more.

@Nike_Leonhard I’m pretty sure this is exactly what they’re referring to though. They think that if you are not actively mourning Kirk, you are apparently celebrating his murder. Ironically, we are responding in the way that he indicated we should.

@tuckeresque

@tuckeresque Yeah, I decided to pull my post about my meme idea about this whole thing that would have been in line with THAT.

I just felt too evil leaving it out there. They deserve that shit do be shoved in their face, but I don't want to feel like this anymore.

@tuckeresque

The media needs to stop calling those people "conservatives" and begin using the far more descriptive word "hypocrites".

@VulcanTourist @tuckeresque

A far more descriptive word is fascists.

@LevZadov @VulcanTourist @tuckeresque And if you must use the word conservative for some reason, shortening it to β€œcon” would work, often in both senses of the shortened word.
@LevZadov @VulcanTourist @tuckeresque Addendum: actually at least 3 ways – a swindle, a convicted felon, and the opposite of a β€œpro”.

@LevZadov @tuckeresque

I'll allow it. πŸ™‚

Fascism is what happens when tribalism and capitalism hook up and have a monopolistic baby.

@VulcanTourist @LevZadov @tuckeresque

Which is why I wish people would call them #CORPORATISTS instead.

#Corporatism is what #Mussolini considered a more appropriate title for his "style of government," yet somehow it never caught on.

Can't imagine why...

@tuckeresque

So would I though, too, please. Can we *all* pretty please have some acceptance of the fact is isnever a celebratory occassion when a human life is stolen, and any possibilty of that human bean getting and doing better is snuffed for always. Yes, perhaps, sometimes there is relief at that cessation of possibilty from a human bean being no longer the world's problem. There should never, ever (yes I'm using absolutes) be celebration.

@tuckeresque i am taking a hell of a lot of pleasure. I mean, not orgasmic or anything, but like watching your team come from behind and win. Or a good hamburger.
@tuckeresque geezis, people are wiled, death is not something to go around cheering for
@tuckeresque it really helps drive the point that for that crowd immigrants aren't people.
@tuckeresque my new favorite way of saying it

@tuckeresque the author of the below tweet has been raging about leftist political violence

Attached: 1 image one of the millions of posts to think about when MAGAs and Elon etc. are saying that the left wing are the ones calling for violence (this was apparently posted to the Libertarian Party's account by Jeremy Kauffman, an infamous race scientist and favourite of #elon. it earned him a visit from the #FBI and/or secret service, which he documented on social media) #uspol #violence #politicalViolence #kamala #secretService #newHampshire #NHpol #JeremyKauffman #elonMusk #X #twitter #libertarian #libertarians #MAGA #rightwing #rightoid
