@Humpleupagus@bigmattoidchimpin O'Keefe has been largely muted in the public eye since he got kiked out of Project Veritas. Kirk was hard at work shitting up troons grooming grounds, probably a higher priority to troons than govt policy dissident.
@bigmattoidchimpin Same, but we're just messengers in the end. Maybe i should've concentrated on the message, because people get hung up on other people and their examples.
@bigmattoidchimpin Is him surviving cancer a long time bothering you? Are you suspecting him of lying about it? He occasionally posts some of his medical diagnosis and test. Besides, he's not stringing people along for charity, he's been much bigger before cancer due to frequency and quality of his streams, audience choices and matters of taste considered.
@bigmattoidchimpin Yeah, but these are mostly straight up "woe is me" beggars, MM is still putting out his products, merch and arguably high value streaming, as rare as it is.
@bigmattoidchimpin Back to original point then, Charlie Kirk's martyrdom made this long life troll and laughing at everything joker say, breaking into crying "Charlie Kirk helped me find God. Powerful.
@bigmattoidchimpin As far as O'Keefe goes, people willing to die for their ideas? Like Kirk did giving a speech wearing body armor? There's not that many. Snowden? Assange?
@bigmattoidchimpin Do you know about the idea "stock of the people"? We get what we deserve. We stopped caring about classical virtues, social metrics changed and it's the best we've got. What social metrics do we operate on now? Weimar virtue metrics? Did we have "better people" with social metric of the 1990s or 2000s? Yes, yes we did. We're not getting back there in a instant, we have to build back up to better standards.
