Ben Shapiro cancelled an event he was going to do today. It seems to me like the moment these fascist fucks feel like they could be in danger for the hateful shit they spew they cower in fear. They are keyboard warriors that don't realize that people can do a lot more than say hurtful things when you do that in public.
He cancelled one event? Holy shit the world is healed!
You aren't wrong that these people are cowards.
But Luigi didn't change health insurance. It pushed one bad move from a former United Healthcare exec back but didn't stop it, and now there's proposed kickbacks for AI companies whenever their AI denies medicare or medicaid coverage.
There is so damn much broken and I understand the sheer desperation, but lone vigilantes carrying out sporadic and infrequent assassinations with poor target choices are not going to cause long term positive change.
