Charlie Kirk shot in Utah

[Politesse]

A detailed summary of the day.

The one actual fight was over on Bancroft, where there are always a bunch of street vendors selling cheap random crap. Two guys got into a screaming match that escalated. On campus, four students were arrested for trying to attach a cardboard sign to Sather Gate, aka vandalism. Later, police broke up a verbal fight that they said was turning violent. That was it. The riot.

Before you ask, no, I still don't "side with the violent thugs outside Berkeley".

There’s still a Charlie Kirk channel on Dish.
I thought he was dead.

Right wingers do like their personality cults.

Yabut, how devoid of personality do you have to be, to idolize the personality of a dead guy?
(Christians need not answer)

It seems pretty clear that there were not lots of civilian violent poopy heads, so the use of metaphor “fascist” appears as hyperbole or irony, depending on one’s feeling.
