I've been called out twice now for "celebrating" CK's murder. I just went back over all my posts for the last few days. Nothing Ive written or posted in anyway "celebrates" it. Saying I don't think he was a good person is not celebrating his death. Saying he doesn't deserve medals or flags at half staff is not celebrating his death. There's an awfully big disconnect here.
People mistake the fact you refuse to mourn him (because he was at his core, a homo/transphobic-racist), that equates to "celebrating his death". Yes, it's a tragedy what happened. No one should be ķilled because of their beliefs, but his death doesn't make him a good person.
I in no means will celebrate anyone's death, not even Trump and 1 loath him, but I just listened to this guy a couple weeks before his death, and i couldn't believe what I was hearing, he was rude, hateful & arrogant, he talked over his debaters, hardly ever let them finish, interrupted constantly. I couldn't believe he was a "Christian ", because he sure didn't come off as a man of GOD. He was so hateful, and just listening to him, was obvious to me, he disliked anyone who was not "white". Came off to me that he thought he the was better than everyone. this has been my opinion of him for years.
Im still struggling with the expectations that anyone but his family and friends are expected to mourn at all. "Public figures" die daily. Sadly Americans are shot daily. Why would i possibly mourn a hateful man who has openly attacked several of the communities with whom I am associated (academics, LGBTO, non Christians any faith or no faith, women, liberals)
