## Charlie Kirk’s Toxic Legacy of Hatred and Division

Authored by commondreams.org

So much hatred, so much anger, so much toxic rot, and so many, many guns.

I absolutely condemn the violence and this murder, just as I condemn the bigotry Kirk fomented in his brief time on this earth. »

But when this daily nuisance turned into a potential loss of income, Mark Zuckerberg lost his patience with Mark Zuckerberg. »
