      For anyone wondering: it’s not gory as such, but it is significant in that way that tells our lizard brains something undeniably bad just happened.

        I…what?

        How else would you define ‘gory’?

        I am genuienly curious, you have a definition of gore…that is not fundamentally based in a human realizing something is very, very wrong with another living being?

        Like… your blood is generally supposed to stay inside you. Blood is generally considered more gory the more of it there is.

          the blood doesn’t spray everywhere or all over him, but you can tell a lot gushed out quickly and goes out of view of the camera….
          it’s really fast and mostly you notice his shirt moving suddenly

            So to you, only blood spatter is gory?

            Not actually just watching something like 1/3 to 1/2 his blood exit his body in maybe 3 seconds tops?

            Like if a guy shat out all his intenstines, but … they went off camera, neatly into a bucket… that wouldn’t be gory?

            Again I am just curious about this, different people are disgusted by different things, draw the lines in different ways I guess.

      But if someone’s gonna make some wisecrack comment celebrating/endorsing acts of violence, they should definitely watch it to see the sick reality of what they’re celebrating.

      Kirk is (was?) a piece of shit, but the armchair judges, juries, and wannabe executioners around here need a reality check.

        I watched it 15 times in a row. Gonna watch it a few dozen times more when more perspectives come back. He deserves worse.

        You’re sick in the head

        Goddamn right I’m sick in the head! Fascism makes us sick. All the more reason to stand up to the monsters who push for it.

              Then why are you not organizing an attack squad? Instead you are just a keyboard warrior hoping to radicalize someone who sees your comments.

              Edit: their removed reply to this post was advocating for violence.

                How is your comment not advocating for violence? Really sounds like you’re pushing him to be violent rather than just leave angry comments online

        There is at least one fewer person advocating for the complete removal of my civil rights as a trans woman.

        He won’t be missed, and in two months I’ll think about him as much as I think about Rush Limbaugh.

        Kirk pushes a narrative of violence and hate. I felt nothing but celebration seeing him get shot
