We spent a long time trying to unilaterally declare peace and people like Kirk stood ardently against those efforts. We begged, we pleaded, we disproved, we mocked. When we reached out a hand it was treated as weakness. When we offered their proposals they called it communism. Biden was our compromise candidate, Harris campaigned hard on reaching across the aisle. Now the right has military occupation of multiple American cities, as opposed to just the paramilitary occupation they had in the past few years.

So right now yeah we won’t lionize him, we won’t miss him. He was, as they say, no angel.

When the right wing is ready to unify we can start talking.
