This is insane...I dunno how to feel about this. They're celebrating political murder...

That's a literal death threat. Fuck that guy. Maybe he'd like to experience the same next time he votes against a Democrat? Or maybe, we just don't do political assassinations.
Nah, this type of cretin deserves only what they salivate over dolling on others. He deserves it. Completely. Literal psychopath throwing threats.
No it isn't. See the tweet in context.https://sh.itjust.works/comment/19206531Edit: Hmmm that tweet is dodgy AF. It really is a death threat which is disguised as Dems killing their own. Doesn't reveal that the killer was a Republican.
I'm going to paste in part of my comment on another thread:
Something important to know about the two people who were shot: until her death, Melissa Hortman was a member of the Minnesota State House of Representatives; and John Hoffman is a member of the Minnesota State Senate. Both were Democrats.
And up until they were shot, the Minnesota House had 134 Members: 66 Republicans vs 67 Democrats (with one seat empty to be filled later). And the Minnesota Senate had 67 members: 33 Republicans and 34 Democrats. If the assassinations had both been successful, both chambers would have been tied. As it is, they're only saying that Hoffman is "stable", but there are no further details.
The brownshirts are being activated. They’ll inspire more domestic terrorism, and they’ll stop facing any consequences. It’s a speedrun to fascism.
It is called stochastic terrorism and this shitbag should be locked up
I'm no lawyer, but I feel like this statement is really toeing the first amendment line https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seditious_libel#Seditious_speech_in_the_United_States
As Dennis would say
They are referencing two murders and two attempted already and stating there will be more, this is far beyond that line
Oh, great. Yes, it's a real Tweet.
And also tries to use an (AI-generated?) prompt answer in an attempt to call dissenting commenters an ablist slur and prove that he definitely didn't make any threats of violence with his statement clearly implying that people who voted against his party of choice have their "li[ves] at stake".

Real fucking class act this fascist shitheel is.
So this is actually him implying that Tim Walz ordered the assassination because Melissa Hortman voted against healthcare for undocumented migrants. Not the threat that it sounds like without context, but orders of magnitude more stupid. These people live in an entirely different reality.
Yes he implies that with ambiguous language as a way of weaseling out of the legality of threatening violence.
we protest peacefully
they murder us
i am not hopeful.
Just have to keep in mind what we are dealing with.
We cannot let the Republican party stand after the dusts settles. It is tainted, planted over the bones of white supremacy and watered with hate.
Force them to set down new grassroots by banning every Republican politician from office that manages to escape prison.
today on sesame street: gang wars edition, we're going to learn about power vacuums!
if you have a large population that supports a particular group or person and get rid of that group or person, a vacuum will form that sucks all that support with new hostility into a new group or person, usually they are worse than the original.
the best way to combat this is to replace existing leadership with leaders who are sympathetic to your goals and will lead the vacant minded masses to the agreed upon goal.
the US has done this hundreds of times in history with great success.

That's what neocons were until the Tea Party purged them.
The problem is that the Democrat leadership wants the old GOP back so they can get back to ending history. We can't tolerate either party in their present forms.
The power vacuum exists when the power is left sitting at the table. Presumably, in my utopic wish to disenfranchise fascists, we'd fix the guiderails that let us fly off into this canyon but I didn't get into that in the midst of my angry diatribe.
Has trump pardoned this murderer yet?
State crimes cannot be pardoned.
By the President
So apparently this is in reply to another tweet of his where he accused it of possibly being a hit from Walz and that is you don't vote with Democrats, then Democrats will kill you. Still completely unhinged, but the context changes the meaning of this tweet.
The image comes from a reply in the reddit comments.
I may not have enough context on this guy and how he stands on stuff but, I usually read "per" as in "stated by" which would mean he is relaying that bit from Walz. And wouldn't make me worried this guy is backing the violence.
If if meant it as in Walz coordinated/hired the hit or something, then that is unhinged.
Uh?????? What the actual fuck??? I guess throw it on the pile
Fuck off, fascist!!! 🖕🤬🖕
Well murder goes both ways
The feeling is becoming mutual. If the GOP keeps it up, reprisals will happen.
The Balkanization of the US is well underway.
has been since 2008.
Okay, look at his tweet. He reposted a video of Hortmann talking after voting to repeal health care for "illegal" immigrants.
He then makes a connection to the shooter, who has been employed by Tim Walz. He is saying that Democrats killed Hortmann for not voting in line with "their beliefs".
Not how the grammar of this statement works but interesting cope with no link
I'm sure another peaceful protest will defeat this guy.
Shut the hell up.
There's hundreds of thousands of lawyers, judges, and human rights activists fighting for your rights while you spout braindead cynicism.
There's millions of people out there boycotting, unionizing, organizing, and sabotaging fascist corporations while you sit on your fat ass and complain about nothing being done.
Respond to violence with violence but this guy's post is just laughable
My only question is; Did they support the oIigarchy and/or fac!sm?
I haven't looked at recent numbers but Minnesota was leading in kidnappings by far.
That said, I know nothing about these two and it's possible this happened because they were the only ones resisting.
To be fair… I wouldn’t really shed a tear if some of them became messages to other republicans… so I guess that’s where the country stands right now.
Pro Life! Jesus Christ!
why would I care what a failed podcaster thinks?
Because he is a fascist with an audience. Little Goebels.
What needs to happen is some led flying over his head. Or bricks to his face. Windows. Molotov his house.
He wants violence? Serve it to him.
Cries wolf? Serve more violence.
Serve violence until he stops.
Why? Because this is what he salivates for for everyone else.
As a fellow Yuropean from eastern block.
DO NOT IGNORE MEDIA FASCITS
I do believe that this counts as a declaration of war.
