ABC yanks Jimmy Kimmel's show 'indefinitely' after remarks about Charlie Kirk

I commented on Kirk's stance, not the shooter's. I don't endorse political violence.

I just take umbrage with the framing of Charlie Kirk as a moderate. He was a white supremacist. He believed that women shouldn't have the right to vote. He endorsed the state-sponsored execution of LGBTQ+ individuals.

These aren't moderate positions in the modern day, they're the positions of a religious extremist.

These are wild mischaracterizations of Kirk. You have a video of him saying any of that? Most of you lefty people are getting clips from Destiny that are clipped to show a wildly unfair characterization.

I'd feel a lot more inclined to engage with you on this if your first response wasn't a complete non sequitur that leads me to believe you've been engaging in bad faith from the jump.
