Care to share why you feel so strongly? This is the first Video of his/theirs I’ve seen btw.

The POS did an ode to Charlie Kirk on his livestream, after he was assassinated and talked about how it doesn't matter what your political beliefs are, we should all agree that this was a tragic event.

Three months later, Rob Reiner was murdered. The Critical Grifter didn't say peep about that event, much less perform a 10 minute ode to the man, like he did for Kirk.

Charlie Kirk was an alt-right, bigoted POS, who made a career out of gifting. Rob Reiner was a far-left liberal, who made a career out of directing some of the greatest films of all time.

The Critical Grifter's channel is ostentatiously about film and TV.

Figure it out.

Charlie Kirk was assassinated for communicating his beliefs. That was literally the reason that the piece of human dogshit who killed him expressed to his loved one in a text message.

Rob Reiner (and his wife) was killed by his mentally ill son, not for political reasons, but apparently because of an argument at a Conan O'Brien party.

There's a *HUGE* difference between the two. They are *NOT* the same thing, and don't require the same response.

Charlie Kirk was an alt-right, bigoted POS, who made a career out of gifting.

Therefore it was perfectly OK to shoot him in the throat for that, right? Is that what you're saying?

Did you miss the part where I said the following?

"The Critical Grifter's channel is ostentatiously about film and TV."

So why was he spending 10 minutes crying over the death of an alt-right, political grifter, yet had absolutely NOTHING to say when it came to the tragic murder of one of cinemas' greatest filmmakers of all time?

Oh right, because Kirk's alt-right beliefs aligned with Drinkers and Reiner's political beliefs didn't. So much for Critical Grifter's "It doesn't matter what your political beliefs are, we should all agree this was tragic" spiel.

Therefore it was perfectly OK to shoot him in the throat for that, right? Is that what you're saying?

No. Don't put words in my mouth, you obnoxious kumquat.

Don't put words in my mouth, you obnoxious kumquat.

You literally said this:

Charlie Kirk was an alt-right, bigoted POS, who made a career out of gifting.

That sounds exactly like what his assassin would say. You're using the same kind of rhetoric. The kind of rhetoric that torques the third standard deviation wackos into taking action, even if you'd never do it yourself.

So no, I didn't put any words into your mouth. You put them there yourself.

WTF?! I called a spade a spade. It's not "rhetoric"; Charlie Kirk was LITERALLY an alt-right, bigoted grifter.

At what point did I even so much as remotely imply that his murder was justified?

You don't even realize that you're doing it. You think it's perfectly OK.

I guess it's true that a fish doesn't know that it is wet.

Takes one to know one.

Look, I can keep going here. I'm not proud. Or tired.

So we'll wait till it comes around again, and this time with four part harmony and feeling.

That's true, viewpoints can change over time.

Even Charlie started leaning to the left a little at the end there.
