  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

The immediate response of many “mainstream” liberal journalists to the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk demonstrates why so many Americans loathe the corporate media.

Many of the responses to Kirk’s killing on social websites like TikTok and Bluesky have been celebratory and downright evil.

It’s ironic in a certain way that Bluesky had become such a concentrated den of hate and outrage, given that the platform was allegedly created because X had backed away from content moderation.

The truth is that what they really wanted was just a safe space for libs. They wanted a world carefully cultivated like a college campus where opinions range from the Left to Left-er, and anyone who challenges their views with logic, like Charlie Kirk, is silenced when basic liberal assumptions are questioned.

But as vicious as the hordes of hateful, random leftists have been on social media, it’s the mainstream outlets that behaved most shamefully when news of Kirk’s shooting broke.

Makes me wonder, for people who claim to so compassionate and tolerant, can you just imagine how many on the left would have been celebrating if the assassin did not miss his shot in Butler, PA?
