The Charlie Kirk Thread

"If the roles were reversed, if this had been someone who had a liberal point of view and was assassinated in this way, there would be riots in the streets, and cities would be burning. You aren't being honest if you say otherwise. What has been the conservative response? Prayer vigils and memorials. One sounds violent, the other doesn't."

Lol, the OPs newsfeed didn't cover the Hortman murder.

Things grow ever darker in the right-wing alternative reality.

What does it say about a person that when they die, merely the act of directly quoting them can be viewed as a hostile act that sullies their memory and can lead to termination of their job

An employee at Apple lost his job for this exact comment.

Except for all the Groyper language and memes? I mean, the killer dressed as Pepe the frog for Halloween. Bella Ciao is a Groyper co-opted song with very little relevance in genZ outside of groypers, from what I’ve ascertained (happy to be wrong). It’s on a groyper Spotify playlist. A groyper handle on Twitter is AFBellaCiao -it’s a groyper - it’s gross. AF is America First (Nick Fuentes’ org). The killer references Kirk as a fascist, which is what groypers use ironically to label Kirk and conservatives to their left. The “if you read this you are gay” is a punching down right-wing meme, and the groypers have long criticized TPUSA as being too friendly to gay people.

Sure, maybe the killer wasn’t listening to Nick Fuentes everyday, but there’s very little doubt the killer was steeped in groyper culture, for many years. Was he doing some kind of framing to cover for being in a relationship with a non binary furry? Maybe. Did you know the terminally online furry culture has a severe problem with neo Nazis? And as I said in a post yesterday, the alleged roommate/friend appears to have posted criticisms of the left and orients as an anarchocapitalist (as you mentioned).

I think it’s really unwise to assume the MANY obvious connections to the farthest right are insignificant, but the cooperating friend it tantamount.

This will be a crazy documentary on netflix.

If you’ve responded to that poster 17 total much less on one topic, you are part of the problem.

And I've read that 1000 times on Social media.

It’s truly bizarre. I mean you would have to look no further than the Kirk’s own words if you really wanted to. Which apparently is taboo now

The whole grift was monetizing cultural resentment and political division, some of which included explicitly violent rhetoric

Never mind the long list of deranged elected officials that you could quote tweet for days calling for and approving of violence

And then there’s Trump himself (to OP’s credit, he did mention), who is literally incapable of telling those on the right not to be violent

But some on the left having been calling conservatives fascists so I guess it all evens out
