A former leader in the FBI said Wednesday night the agency was "back to square one" after authorities released a "subject" who had been taken into custody in connection with the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Kirk, 31, was the CEO and co-founder of Turning Point USA, a conservative s...
I dunno, for all the alt-right frothing, Charlie Kirk doesn’t seem like someone anyone will think about even a month from now, let alone set up a pin board for.
He deserved what he got, but if I was making a list of worthy targets I’d probably forget to add him.
Brutal, hilarious and true.
Legit forgot he existed till I woke up from my nap this afternoon and the internet was on fire about the shooting and shortly there after his declaration of death.
Was a bit surprised a few discord servers I was on was trying to spin it like this was something the left always does and gets away with. When i asked for them to give a source to that they freaked out and tried to get a mod to ban me. Good times.
Yeah, there’s a rotating cast of grifters that are making the world worse but aren’t really individually important in the larger fascist project. And political shootings are almost entirely from the right. The last political shooting from the left I can think of is the congressional baseball shooting nearly a decade ago.
I got myself banned from a discord server for daring to refuse to express sympathy for his death and calling him a Neo-Nazi instead. One of the moderators is very conservative, unsurprisingly
He was a big mouthpiece for their propaganda. My coworkers yesterday were a surprising bunch, because apparently many of their families enjoyed listening to his “debates.”
Underestimating the influence of ‘influencers’ is part of what got us trump in the first place.
Honestly I didn’t even know who he was, but clearly he was low hanging fruit with minimal security protection. The scariest thing about that video is thousands of young people at a “University” cheering on hate.
I don’t l ow much about the guy, but per AP News (de facto genocide deniers), Kirk was instrumental in vetting Trump loyalists.
Id probably would’ve added him but as halftime entertainment. Id force him and Kent Hovind to duel to the death, winner gets fed to the wood chipper legs first.
Which is what makes him the perfect sacrificial lamb to justify a military crackdown on protests and such.
He also showed a little bit of rebellion on Epstein before snapping quickly back into approved messaging.
True. But what if there is a list, and whoever did it is just starting from the bottom?
Gotta level up before taking on the bigger bosses.
Are you kidding? The right will make him a martyr.
They made Babbit a matyr, and she rushed Capitol police during a violet mob attack on Congress, through a barricade, while cops shouted for her to stop. The cop that killed her fired a single, controlled shot. He was not firing wildly or with malice. She was ex military, and should have realized what guns drawn and warnings about deadly force meant. Bystanders next to her admitted to hearing the police warning her as she breached the barricades, but she did it anyway.
Her mother just got a 5 million dollar settlement from the government and she got a full military burial with honors.
They don’t need an actual reason for a martyr. They will invent reasons after the fact regardless of what happens.
IF we ever regain control, we should forcibly take back the money, and dump her body on their front lawn.
Those aren’t exclusionary, they’ll make both martyrs.
