What are we learning from all of the hubbub over ABC yanking "Jimmy Kimmel Live" off the air? The Bulwark's Sam Stein says he's learning that some people have really thin skin. Yeah, never mind Kimmel coming on the air Monday night and saying conservatives had spent the whole weekend trying to convince the world that Charlie Kirk's assassin wasn't one of them? Kimmel's liberal bubble must be impenetrable. MSNBC had already floated the idea that it was a supporter who shot Kirk in a burst of "celebratory gunfire." Yes, you must have pretty thin skin to get upset about someone blaming your own side for Kirk being shot in the throat and killed.
The best way to understand all this, it seems, is that these people have incredibly thin skin

Speaking of thin skin, Stein turned off replies.

@samstein 's pontificating speculations about the thin skin of "these people" while locking his account from replies is peak hypocrisy and cowardice. Projection much, Mr. Thin Skin? https://t.co/O3PpP9eWJi

Just a little curious if you felt at least a little sense of shame as you turned off comments after having typed this out. https://t.co/PWIyzQngrK

Yeah I'll admit it, we're getting a little out over our skis over a young conservative free speech loving father getting murdered in public at a university by a Trans obsessed wacko.

Totally Sam. https://t.co/1bRGX1gcSy
And then getting fingered as the guilty party.
Yes, we must be pretty thin-skinned to get offended over the claim that one of your own was responsible for assassinating one of the most influential people of our generation.
