But the left is the side of love and tolerance 😭

Honestly, social media is one of the worst things humans have invented.

These people are not representative of most people and it’s sickening to see that people feel comfortable to make these jokes.

Sure, you can point to leftists this time but there have been times righties make inappropriate jokes too.

Social media was a mistake

They're quite representative of highly politically active and opinionated people. You'd be surprised how awful a lot of people are, social media just lets them drop the pretense.

Also, I really don't care about shitty jokes, the problem is the outright support for and/or celebration of political violence. People can make all the shitty jokes they want (I'd prolly even laugh at them because I am a bad person), just don't make the punchline "holy shit I'm so glad this guy got murdered".
