Mumsnet censorship

[anonymouselephantx]

Mumsnet has been deleting any comment at all that criticises Charlie Kirk... just because he has died does not mean he is infallible. He is still an evil person who did and said evil things, contributed to so much suffering of families at the hands of ICE etc., mocked the Palestinians undergoing a genocide? Mumsnet, disturbing much? I had to get MN by email to delete a thread of mine as I was getting bullied and people were making personal attacks against me (the talk guidelines say personal attacks will be deleted, yet I had to BEG for this), but they are censoring anything anyone says about Charlie Kirk? Why are we not allowed to have freedom of speech and freedom to debate, especially when it is someone who did and said SO MUCH EVIL!

I didn't agree with a lot of what he said and stood for.

But he was absolutely entitled to have those beliefs and express them, and he had the balls to stand by and stand up for his beliefs and certainly shouldn't have been murdered for them. .

I dont think he's evil. He had differing opinions to what I hold, and that's ok.

Personally, I both liked and respected him. RIP to a good man, who told the truth.

I posted a reply objectively stating facts of why people are allowed not to mourn him, I did not mock his death or anything, yet you deleted my comment and know you deleted other similar comments too. So that is not true.

yes he expressed his opinion that gun deaths are a normal and acceptable consequence to having guns, so why should we mourn his death?

Charlie was a beacon of light in a dark world.

The Left hates everything g he stood for a Christian family man with strong morals.

Comparing this to Hitler is exactly what is wrong with the left. And why people are going the other way.

Unless you suggest that mixed sex changing rooms lead to more attacks on women. Then you get banned for "veiled transphobia."

Mumsnet has had its imperfections but it isn't a tenth as moronic and male-centric as Reddit. I haven't had an account there for years.

You don’t have to mourn his death - no one is insisting you do.

But what you shouldn’t do is celebrate the death of a man just because he has differing views to you.

There is a middle ground where you just say nothing. Try it sometime.

No one forcing anyone to mourn his death. But celebrating it - absolutely not.

Yes, he unfortunately was a victim of his beliefs. I am incredibly anti-gun, so that was one of the things I obviously disagreed with. It still didn't mean he deserved to be shot.

Mourn the fact that people think it's ok to kill someone for having a different belief to them.

I reported quite a few posts yesterday OP. Some of them were quite frankly disgusting, with some posters clearly rejoicing at his death. It seems that some mumsnetters think he deserved what happened because they don’t agree with some of the opinions he held.

Quite sickening really, considering a lot of these people are probably parents. Wonder how Charlie’s two little girls are coping today in the aftermath of what’s happened? Not only is there a video of the actual murder of their father on the internet, there are comments from people saying they are glad it happened and laughing about it. I hope they don’t see it when they are older.

I saw a post by The Guffian on Facebook today about it and the majority of reactions to the post were laughing emojis. So much for the caring left. It seems we have moved on from cancelling people we don’t agree with.

What a sick world we live in.

MNHQ are also deleting any presumption that the black man who murdered the white women because she was white, is in any way racist against white people.

You are comparing Charlie Kirk to Hitler?!?

I think if you hadn’t already lost the argument, you have now.

True, hypocrites

We should mourn all deaths.

most people have families who will suffer grief at their death.

surely it’s possible to feel compassion for the people of Palestine and for Charlie Kirk’s family?

the answer to violence and death should not be more violence and death.

So you are basically saying that people who have different political views to you are "evil"?

People have different opinions, often they have good reasons to think the way they do. Adults used to understand this and just agree to disagree.

There is a lot to mourn.
A man was shot as he invited debate. He wanted people to challenge him. A father and husband was shot in front of his family. An individual unknown has decided the way to deal with his dislike of a person is to kill them. If they are caught they will likely be killed too. Students will have been traumatised by what they saw right in front of them.

Palestinian children lose their parents every day and Palestinian parents lose their children every day and he MOCKED that. So no I don’t really feel the need to mourn him.

Where did I celebrate his death? All I am saying is we should not get our comments deleted for saying we are not sad he died.

Who exactly has said you need to mourn him? No one. So stop exaggerating.

When we have a Reform government and mumsnet is up in arms about it, I might use threads like this as examples of why people are moving away from the left. This one is an excellent example.

My post is talking about how anyone who criticises him is being reported.

It’s not the day to criticise him. He was just murdered. Fgs, when did common sense depart MN?

And people like you are the reason why my British passport husband has to spend hours in queues at European airports while I get to waltz right in with my Irish passport! Enjoy reform! I hope you get me deported back to Ireland.

I agree. I am left of centre in my politics and I despair when I read things like this.

I hope this thread is allowed to stand and won’t be deleted when the OP says they’ve been bullied. As it is a stark warning.

You emailed MNHQ asking them to delete posts criticising you.
