George Floyd and Charlie Kirk Deserve Humanity
A call to stop celebrating political violence and tragedy no matter who the victim is, framed as a warning about rising dehumanization on both the left and right.
- The comparison of George Floyd's death to Charlie Kirk's killing is criticized as turning tragedy into a political contest.
- The core argument: any unjustified death deserves empathy, regardless of the victim's politics.
- Cheering a death, from either side, is described as a sign of lost humanity, not political victory.
- The broader warning is that society is losing basic empathy across the political divide.
Outlook: Expect continued public debate over how to react to politically charged deaths, with little sign the divide is cooling soon.
