What could we do to like send this guy to the sun or some other place? I don't think we need this sort of chicanery here.
Tell him about the giant space goat that’s going to eat the earth, but he can escape on a special spaceship.
Well, the simplest conception way was to launch a big ass rocket retrograde and let it fall into the sun.
More effecient would be to do a Venus flyby.
Personally, though, I’d say drop them in an earth trailing orbit, with a big solar sail. Use it to slowly reduce their orbit until it falls in.
Give them enough food, air, and water to survive the trip. Maybe in a completely isolated pod, maybe with a certain handful of others.
Also maybe live stream that shit.
Why waste air, food or water on Charlie Kirk? He's absolutely unnecessary. It's like somebody left a stove on one time in 85 and now we have this dunce. He's a sad accident that should have been prevented, but now he's here inconveniencing everybody like a rock in our collective shoe. I wish there was a checkbox on my tax forms to get rid of this unfortunate accident of a person.
what? you don't want to see a bunch of assholes go all Lord-of-the-Flies-in-Space on each other?
yeah. neither do I but I bet it'd generate a lot of proceeds until people learned were donating to school lunches and LGBTQ+ stuff and women's rights stuff and... whatever else we can....
But you're right, of course. WE should probably just drop them in a pit and get the same effect.
