"Inviting an act that chanted 'death to the IDF' and celebrated Charlie Kirk's shooting shows this is not a grown-up political party"
"The Pope had been dead for nine months, but his successor was not so easily deterred. He had his predecessor's bo­­dy dug up, set on a throne and put on trial over various trumped-up charges."
"The corpse was found guilty - and his papacy declared retrospectively invalid."
A political party invited an act that chanted 'death to the IDF' and celebrated Charlie Kirk's shooting. The invitation normalized extremist rhetoric and the celebration of violence at a party event. Such behavior erodes public trust and signals a tolerance for threats against political opponents. The conduct undermines democratic norms and suggests organizational immaturity and irresponsibility. A surreal example describes a dead pope's body exhumed, placed on a throne, tried on trumped-up charges, found guilty, and his papacy declared retrospectively invalid, illustrating extreme and grotesque political spectacle.
