Authorities say a “person of interest” is in custody following the fatal shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Kirk co-founded the conservative youth organization Turning Point USA and was a close ally of President Donald Trump.
Isn’t it only ironic if the event that happens is opposite of what is expected? He advocated for guns on campus knowing that it would result in shootings and deaths, he just didn’t expect it would happen to him.
Couldn’t happen to a better guy. He advocated for guns on campus, and got exactly what he wanted.
He stated that the few shootings were worth it. Not a soul should feel sorry for him.
I’m fairly confidant this is a setup for Trump to start taking away guns, though, not some heroic revolutionary.
That’s called irony.
Next up: RFK Jr dies of COVID and Marco Rubio is arrested by ICE for looking too latino.

There are several types of irony (not sure if this just applies to literature.)
Verbal irony is when a person says one thing but means the opposite;
Situational irony is when the reverse of what is expected happens; and
Dramatic irony is when the audience knows something that the characters do not.
This falls under dramatic irony imo
Results unclear, will need more data.
Exactly.
The same way it’s going to be wildly ironic when the ICE Gestapo starts going after MAGA voters.
We can hope.
Trump almost died of COVID. They really hid how bad it was.
I never though I’d say I wish COVID did a better job…
I’m excited to see him try. Today there was also another school shooting, and none of them cared.

Agree 💯
I hope it is a heroic revolutionary, and I hope we have many more.
I suspect it is more sinister.
He also stated he hated the word “empathy” and thought it was a made up “new age” term.
