@glenn_tunes Anyone that makes us weaker is a threat and must be reminded that we are the world's #1 power. If you can't get on board with our needs, we no longer need you! Sit down and watch.
@ianrich15813274 It's evil to project power to protect your country, it's madness to say our biggest enemies are the EU, NATO and Islam. Your panties are showing!
@realchasegeiser Now look, December 17th, is the closest it's comes to us, theoretically. Shouldn't we be coming together as a world? We should use this as a time to heal those wounds of the past and redo our failures as humanity to join hands and show whomever that we are united!
@BearsNationCHI That's not a Bears defense! I've been watching them since 1978. That's not a Bears defense. This isn't Bears football. What are they even doing?
This isn’t just about Kirk or Rowling. It’s about the phase shift we’re entering. The West has crossed the invisible threshold where politics stops being about persuasion and starts being about domination. That’s why Rowling’s taxonomy hits so hard right now - because it isn’t theory anymore. It’s the lived reality.
The Kirk assassination proves that political violence is now part of the grammar. Once that happens, you don’t go back. Systems don’t rewind to civility. They escalate. Every side interprets restraint as weakness. Every act of violence becomes both revenge and pretext.
And here’s the mask-off truth: this was always where liberal democracy was heading. Once truth itself fractured into tribes, the system had no stabilizer. Narrative became stronger than fact, and reflexivity guaranteed acceleration. Violence is just the material form of that breakdown.
So no, this isn’t isolated. This isn’t random. This is systemic inevitability. Kirk’s killing wasn’t just one man dying. It was the signal that persuasion is dead as the dominant mode of politics. The new mode is force, intimidation, spectacle. The “possessed” framing is closer to reality than people realize. Whole segments of the population are locked in memetic possession loops where no evidence can reach them. They’re no longer persuadable, only combustible.
The truth I can’t dress up: this is how republics die. Not overnight, not with one assassination, but with the normalization of the idea that violence is politics by other means. We’re in it now. And once you’re here, the center never holds.
