Badempanada's reaction to Charlie Kirk's death

Thought this would be a good time to share my Bad Empanada soyjak.

Who killed Charlie KKKirk? And why?

he's been getting more and more terminally online

Acting like people can't comprehend that things can be worse is pretty funny, ngl.

Like imagine if I posted on lemmygrad and was like, "I know it's a bit hard for you people to understand, but the working class is a thing."

This isn't even a take or analysis lol, it's just an internet personality over-inflating their own sense of awareness compared to others. "I better get online and say this, nobody will think of it otherwise."

Man BE is on a streak of bad takes lately its kinda sad.

I dont understand this position. Does anyone really think the far right just, wasnt going to do anything before? Like they were waiting for something like this to happen? As if Trump wasnt already deploying the national guard in major cities? Like come on, the ruling class does not act out of petty revenge, and by this logic there is no actual action communists can take because anything can serve to provoke the far right.

And werent people saying this same thing about Trumps failed assassination last year? And nothing happened

Too many Americans are scared of things changing and want to just put the blame on whatever. They want to cling to the idea that the path we are on could somehow be avoided if X Y or Z didnt happen. If this event somehow changes what you think the future holds then you havent been paying attention.

It's funny because the dudes a hardcore accelerationist when he talks about the west burning but then when things accelerate and he isn't the one making all the comments he gets stuck up his own ass about it. At this point his ideology isn't communism, it's his own ego. He HAS to be contrarian to let us all know how dumb we are and how smart he is.
It's not that they weren't going to do anything before. It's that this lets them say "You see? I told you the left is out of control! They attacked us for no reason". It solidifies the position. It gives them stronger grounds to do what they planned to regardless.
- They were always going to do that anyway, in the absence of a real event they would have made some shit up

I know he has some relevancy, but he's a transphobic and ableist fuck, I don't think we should be caring much about him or his takes.

What the utility in saying this? I mean yeah, no shit, things can get worse but they actively have been getting worse for a very long time now. Right wingers being genuinely scared is a good thing. You should be scared to hold hateful beliefs

no you see, we shouldn't be moving at all, that way we won't notice our chains and if we don't notice them it means they don't exist.

if only those dudes didn't lite fire to the reichstag, nazi germany wouldn't have existed 😔

When he talks about “things getting worse than they are already”, he’s talking about getting banned from imperial social media and losing his ability to monetize posting. That’s the thing we should be so scared of that we should cling to the status quo.

BadEmpanada and many other streamers live on drama like a vampire feeds on blood

This is the kind of thing is expect from an American leftist content creator, as ot would make sense to police your community into not getting targeted for stupid reasons, or simply for the sake of making your propaganda accessible to as of yet non-aligned people.

Yet it's somewhat strange coming from BE. It's not entirely false, but coming from someone who constantly stabs at the 1st world, it's odd for him to show any concern. It feels more like he's being a contrarian for the sake of it, rather then actually trying to aid any rhetorical struggle.

I won't deny I'm concerned about how the US will crack down on leftists for this. However, I also hold the position that the ruling class already puts all to its disposal for the sake of destroying us, so why would they even need a justification on the first place? Kirk was so clearly a fascist that any "normal" citizen is more likely to empathize with leftists being suppressed over Kirk's own death.

As much as we rag on Americans, it's not exactly correct to think they support Charlie Kirk. Even a slight investigation into him, which can be done in passing during a conversation, reveals him to be a massive peace of shit who had thus coming.

Maybe not Kirk himself, but let's not underestimate just how far liberals are willing to go to protect "their own little habitat", as George Carlin called it - "They’re worried that some day in the future they might be personally inconvenienced". Don't forget that while marginalised communities like LGBT people, undocumented immigrants, Muslims and people of colour are under siege from both parties and live in fear every day, straight white cisgender bourgeois liberals are afforded some relative peace and security by the very system that's creating all that suffering. So, when people start fighting back against the system and threaten that peace and security, don't be surprised by just how many liberals will be willing to ally with the fascists to crush them - not for Kirk's sake, but for their own.
