“So don’t use your ‘what about this.’ The fact of the matter is the ‘both sides’ argument, not only doesn’t fly, we don’t care. We don’t care about your ‘both sides’ argument. That shit is dead,” Gutfeld asserted.
“For one thing, there is no cognitive dissonance on our side,” Gutfeld continued. “On your side, your beliefs do not match reality. So you’re coming up with these rationalizations, like, ‘what about this or what about that.’ We’re not doing that, because we saw it happen.”
“We saw a young, bright man assassinated, and we know who did it,” the Fox News host added. “I understand why people are saying, ‘What about this’ — because if you have to face the underlying fact to this, your life is gonna fall apart, because you’re going to realize: you’re not the good guys.”
“If you sat [for] 600, 700 cases of harassment against Republicans, and you said, ‘But what about this,’ and then you see this murder after calling somebody a fascist, you realize, ‘Maybe I’m not the good guy.’ That is a hell of a realization to deal with,” Gutfeld declared.
Kirk was assassinated on September 10, while trying to have an open and respectful dialogue with a student at Utah Valley University.
Some in society have shockingly reacted to Kirk’s assassination by doubling down on their hateful and violent rhetoric, celebrating the Turning Point USA founder’s murder and continuing to smear him.
For millions of people around the world, this served as a major mask-off and watershed moment, in which the public has been able to see firsthand the shocking depravity and degradation of society.
Unhinged teachers, medical professionals, and public servants were not shy about posting ghoulish online celebrations of Kirk’s assassination, resulting in investigations, suspensions, and firings across the United States this past week.
Ironically, the examples from teachers celebrating Kirk’s murder have highlighted the very issue the Turning Point USA founder spent years exposing — the left-wing extremism that students are exposed to at all levels of the American education system.
