Some of you spoke to how the current administration could use this killing to further agendas - not how many candlelight vigils would spring up as a result.

And here is more context:
15 teams were given the option to hold the moment of silence this week. 10 decided to, 5 didn't.
Again, none of this should be surprising considering old rich white men control most of the NFL.
We lean into dramatizing certain updates which is understandable considering most of it is pushed in front of us to garner that reaction, and sometimes even framed in a specific way to do that. But I'd encourage everyone to look at facts and keep logic in the center.
I see, for me it's also about his corpse being transported to and fro on Air Force 2, this word "assassination", flags flying half mast, calling him a founding father, comparing him to MLK, etc. To me, this is all way disproportionate praise and attention for a popular podcaster.
He was buddies with Trump

and Trump is our sitting president, unfortunately.
So of course Trump is making sure he's getting regal treatment.
And some of his fans putting his picture next to MLK in some meme they made on their outdated HP laptop isn't a shocker either.
But the killer being one of their own is still a thorn in their side that they'll have to deal with. And it will prevent them from twisting this into some sort of war against Republicans from the other side.
Which is why some of them went from demanding the death penalty (before he was discovered) to coddling the killer and not believing he was capable of it.
What I care about is real life consequences and significantly elevated social tensions that can be imposed or pushed as a result of Charlie's demise. Not his stans being..... stans - Trump included.
