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 think it’s possible to have found him reprehensible because of his political views, and be completely horrified that he has been assassinated.

I knew a lot about him as my kids detested him so much - they often spoke about him. They too are shocked and dismayed he’s been killed

No. Because he didn’t.
Nor did he advocate violence against the LGBTQ+ community.

typo

This.

3 children died yesterday in a school shooting. No one is paying any mind to them because apparently our sympathy should be reserved for a man who advocated for gun rights by saying that it was acceptable that people were killed by gun violence.

The left are showing their true colours now and people are waking up to the realisation that they are both hypocrites and filled with hate.

I can’t understand anyone who doesn’t feel some sadness for a life cut short, even if you are on the other side politically.

And @anonymouselephantx , there is a middle ground between not mourning a death (I presume you don’t actually mourn Palestinian deaths either) and deliberately posting pretty abhorrent views so soon after an incident like this.

The normal response would be to say that although you didn’t agree with his political views, he didn’t deserve to be murdered for holding them. Likewise anyone else on the right or left. The other normal response is to say nothing, because what you have posted makes you sound hate-filled.

Pretty much my feelings on the whole thing 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾.
My empathy (something Charlie also didn't believe in) seems to have taken the day off 🤷🏾‍♀️.

That is horrific also. It's an either/or situation.

😂

Apologies it's NOT an either/or situation

Doesn't matter to them, they operate purely on the feels. It’s all about emotion. No proof.

If they can’t find evidence that he said something, they’re perfectly happy to imagine that he would have, or could have - “I think he’d be happy to” - do whatever terrible thing. The fact that he didn’t say it is irrelevant. Perfectly happy to smear someone with no proof, and thinks this advances their argument. It doesn’t.

'The left are showing their true colours now and people are waking up to the realisation that they are both hypocrites and filled with hate.'

Yes and it is both depressing and alarming to see.

What is wrong with some people, why can't they be more tolerant.

I have different views to some friends and family but neither I nor them are evil.

He’s entitled to his opinion, people are entitled to like that opinion or not

A woman was stabbed to death of public transport no so long ago too, the MSM didn’t utter a word about it, until people like and including Charlie Kirk, did.

I completely agree, yet the press are making it one. No one is talking about the children who lost their lives just the man who was happy to see it happening if it meant he could own a gun.

The left are, funnily enough, tolerant of every irrelevant outward characteristic that doesn’t matter, and totally intolerant of the only thing that makes us unique as individuals - diversity and tolerance of thought.

This!!

I've no idea. Who said they were?

The OP's arrogance and lack of empathy is breath taking.

Even more shocking, she thinks her left-wing view of the world makes her one of the "good guys" and that entitles her to brand others "evil", because they don't share her views. She comes across as a particularly intolerant and unpleasant person.

Charlie Kirk was not "evil". Many people agreed with his views and many of those who didn't admired his ability to engage and articulate his views respectfully.

He had an ability to engage young people in a way that many political campaigners cannot. That made him a threat to the left which is why so many hated him.

Happy to see it happening? Are you for real? Where’s your proof that he was happy that children were murdered? That’s right, he wouldn’t have been. You’re just happy to smear him to suit your narrative.

'Charlie Kirk was not "evil". Many people agreed with his views and many of those who didn't admired his ability to engage and articulate his views respectfully.

Yes an articulate man, able to connect with all age groups.

It is absolutely not okay. No child should have to witness what they did.
Charlie, however, says therapy wrecks the mental health of children; so there's no guarantee they'll get that support.

Hopefully their faith and community will be a source of strength and support to them though, as they will need all the support they can get.

"He also said gun deaths were an acceptable price to pay for the 2nd Amendment". This whole awful situation is incredibly Ironic.

That's not the point I'm making, which I think you know. You like censorship when it's about deleting comments YOU don't approve of, but disagree with your comments being deleted. Hypocrisy.

It isn't 'ironic'. It is a tragic consequence of their gun laws. He knew the risks, he had a bullet proof vest on I believe.

America is pro gun ownership. He knew and understood that it is the wish of the peopel so had to accept it. Again, that is not ironic it is tragic.

Live by the sword die by the sword, he said gun deaths were acceptable therefore his death was acceptable.
Charlie Kirk hated women, LGBT people and any minority, I can't understand why you would be defending him so hard when he wouldn't have blinked twice at your or your childrens deaths.
