I have mixed thoughts about this. On one hand, good riddance, he’s done a lot of harm to our country and helped a fascist into power. On the other hand, his death will further divide the country, which is also wholistically bad. It spreads further hate and turns people against each other even more.
Overall, im not upset that it happened, just worried about what it will bring
I don’t know, man. I don’t think there’s any healing the divide that already exists. It’s not like Fox and the other propaganda machines are churning out messages of unity or anything. If you’re worried about a slippery slope, I hate to tell you that we’ve been on it for a long time, now. Obviously, the future isn’t set in stone, but I think it’d take one hell of an external threat to get us all to band together at this point. Maybe those UFOs we were all concerned about last year could do it?
It is going to justify the expansion of fascist power, to crack down on the dangerous, violent leftists and their evil ideology. This assassination is exactly the kind of thing the right wants, to further their agenda. They want a war.
Their acolytes have been doing everything in their power to split themselves off from the rest of the country, and this sort of call to try to come together with them is basically a call to throw ourselves into their country-sized log splitter. They’re splitting and hating and killing regardless of what their targets do to appease or not aside from full on conversion into their cult, and they’ve designed their cult such that it’s impossible for vast swaths of people to join with long term safety just based on their physical traits.

They don’t need justification. They have already been steamrolling over any opposition in the legal sense.
This is one less leader to rally around. That’s all.
