A video has been traveling around showing a leftwing activist and his girlfriend being attacked by a random person, who stabs and kills the activist. Of course, being X, the responses have been inappropriate for the kind at heart.
But let's not pretend this is something only the right does ...
The far right gloating over the murder of a progressive young man on his way home from a wedding is among the most morally abominable things I've ever seen on this website.

Girl.
Really?
Is your bubble this thick?
You missed Ashli Babbitt being gunned down, the “Herman Cain Awards,” and the mass shooting of Steve Scalise and other Republicans? https://t.co/GfDnJOpcs1 pic.twitter.com/0g7vwB5U0G

How did the Left react when Rush Limbaugh died of cancer? https://t.co/pqOY77DBQq

I don't disagree mocking dead people is tacky - no one really mourns lost opps, but there must be convention - and try to avoid gloating when dropping stats.

But, it is...amusing to see this take, ~50x so far today, from the "hope all you deplorable clinging MAGAts die of… https://t.co/hEBg1CfyR1
Y’know, y’all not only celebrated the deaths of unvaccinated Americans, y’all hoped and wished for the deaths of the unvaccinated population. https://t.co/ZaajhN6ZDd

It’s almost like he was absent the day Scalia died. https://t.co/vO85xpzv0v

What about all this?

Oh, and we might mention.
When anyone dies on the right, like Rush Limbaugh - 90% of the Left will dance on their graves.

Spare me the fake outrage. pic.twitter.com/L38ePXbZJI
ah.
It's different when HE does it.
That tweet argues that the chief legacy of Rush Limbaugh — a public figure who never tempered his political opinions with politesse — was a more hateful political discourse. I did not post a meme mocking his death from cancer, or make a joke above a video of his last moments

Also,
Would you like to reread this thread of yours where people are gloating over Ashli Babbitts murder? https://t.co/mPKiggYciw

Ok yeah, that was bad too, BUT.
It was bad when some liberals gloated over the deaths of the unvaccinated. Celebratory posting a video of a murder is worse imo, though I don't think it needs to be a contest

Yeah. If they could only be a little more like the progressive left. pic.twitter.com/GGU5Sugg1i

Somehow the left is always absolutely shocked at the argument they engage in the same behavior they so smugly and self-righteously denounce. They seem completely unaware of how their own side responds to, well, anything.
It's always the right being awful and always the left sadly shaking their heads in disapproval.
It's bad when anyone decides to use a death as a platform for political mockery or exploit it for talking points but come on man. Get out of your bubble.
It's embarrassing.
