While I would digress, and think there's a lot of finger-pointing from both sides, I concede to this. I absolutely don't think that either side is completely blameless. Kimmel should have been a bit more concise (and maybe a bit contrite?) in his dialogue.
I'm probably not going to be as critical against Trump as many of the more left-leaning in this group. I'm not a D nor an R. I am vehemently moderate and believe in distributionism wholeheartedly. But, Trump absolutely blew the door open to the seeping infection that, sorry to say, started with the right.
Some here might be old enough to remember, and I referenced it in another post, the CSPAN debacle between Bill O'Reilly (POS) and Al Franken (Also, POS). This was the beginning of where the liberals lost their cool, I think. The repeated assaults from people like Rush Limbaugh left them scuttering for their own voice.
What's concerning, is that the liberals lost their moral high-ground a while back. We've devolved into two messy, incompatible shit-shows. Just like I don't think Charlie Kirk was a good person, I don't think Jimmy Kimmel was, either. The difference here, is that Jimmy Kimmel gets to walk away with his fat stacks of money. Charlie Kirk is dead.
Liberals, like Conservatives, will have to admit that they helped fuel a fire that was eventually going to burn out of control. I work in insurance. When I review a loss, there is something called comparative negligence. It's time we started looking at it like that. Dems get a small pass from me because the right has such an absolutely mindless and crazy history of sheer evil, even in our country. They are basically the boy who cried wolf at this point.
