The Charlie Kirk Thread

[nycfan]

The responses to this tweet are … well, sad. I thought Kash was popular with MAGA, but I guess that only goes so far …

Explains to a large degree why we lost the election. Both that folks don't know how many people are looking for that content and that the Left has no equivalent.

I've been saying this since the election. The left is not connect with a large portion of the general public. As long as a large percentage of Americans are getting their "news" from TikTok, X, and Charlie Kirk/ Joe Rogan manosphere podcasts, the left doesn't stand a chance. Dems have to figure out a) what their message is and b) how to reach people where they are.

Is the arrow thing a video game move or something?

""Bella Ciao" is an Italian folk song with deep roots in the resistance and anti-fascist movement, symbolizing freedom and rebellion against oppression. Though its exact origins are debated, the song is known for being sung by partisans during the Italian Civil War and by women protesting harsh labor conditions in the 19th century, eventually spreading globally as a hymn of freedom.

It’s quite possible her free speech motivated one of her/Trump’s disturbed followers.

no need to post all, but I would be interested to see 10 examples of Dems expressing violent rhetoric so can you post 10 examples ?

Is 10 the magic number to justify murder? I hadn't heard that....

Link?

I browsed through his mom's facebook page. Looks like he grew up with guns. Wore US military hats. Was maybe in Boy Scouts at one point. Wore Trump costume for Halloween one year. Nothing obvious, but has the appearance that he grew up Republican. . . That would ease a lot of bipartisan tension at least

Destroyed his family too.

You aren’t kidding

Kid just threw his life away, and for what? Heartbreaking.

Maybe so. I guess he did it because he felt compelled to stop a guy who had a national platform for spreading racism, bigotry and hate. Not saying it was the right thing to do, but that's why he did it.

Still waiting for you to remind us of all of the violence that Biden incited.

How do you know his motivation?

Nah, if he is guilty, no maybe about it. He will spend rest of his life in prison, although I suppose he could do some good inside there. But this will do nothing to end those things you highlighted and, as we have already seen, just foster more.

“Better angle” language from Utah Governor. Does he count John Meacham as an advisor?

Good showing from the Governor, he may be elevated at the national level.

 

[heelinhell]

so looking at that mug shot, I am certain he is not transgender. We will need more info to see whether he is BLM, Antifa, LGBTQ, atheist, Hamas, or a supporter of AOC.

They executed McVeigh so quickly...It would have been instructive to learn from his motivations and world view IMO.

 

[sringwal]

I just want to reiterate that this is example 5,345 proving why it is always important to wait until a suspect is arrested before assigning blame and making assumptions about belief and motive.

Like does he prefer a right angle?

Upon first glance, the killer has similarities to the United Healthcare unit CEO killer. Young, white, educated, "good" family. Targeted killing. Ambiguous political leanings.

That is his attempt I guess
But I seriously can't wrap my head around the "transition" from praising Charlie to this healing attempt
Charlie had a 100 mill dollar operation that fueled hate
