This entire Charlie Kirk thing has done the same thing that COVID did...it has exposed leftists for who they really are and what they really feel. They know if they truly expose their real self that sane americans won't vote for them.
COVID exposed their true desire to rule, to mandate, to close churches, to function as semi-totalitarian statists. We all forget that the president truly wanted people fired for not taking an experimental vaccine. We forget that people were unable to go to church, to visit loved ones in the hospital, all of that. It exposed them for the statists and facists they are and they way they would function with unchecked power.
The Charlie Kirk tragedy exposed them as people (using that term loosely) who truly hate Christians, morality, and true open debate. They have been exposed as truly vile human beings who truly want Christians and conservatives dead, as opposed to having to debate them.
There is no going back. The modern american left is vile, evil, statist, and the opposite of every foundation and value that the United States was founded on.
