Do conservatives really care about Kirk, or his message?

[BartenderElite]

I have grown to admire Charlie Kirk immensely since his tragic killing. Based on media characterizations, I thought he was some kind of hateful firebrand. I've watched, and I've learned about the man. He was what we want everyone to be. I don't care how much people disagreed w/ him - I did and do - but he wanted the marketplace of ideas. He used the Socratic method to get people to THINK, and to have calm & open dialogue about the issues.

In the past few days, what I have seen is many on the right USING his death to advance their own agenda, demonize Democrats, and sow further division in this country.

It's disgusting, and dishonors Kirk's life & legacy, imo. The irony as I read some of the comments sections on videos and articles - calling out the left for using "hateful" rhetoric, while also calling them DemonRats, communists, socialists, evil, and the enemy. Talking about Jesus Christ while warning people that their neighbors can be "enemies" (directly contradicting a very famous quote from Jesus about neighbors).

They care more about their agenda. There are so many hypocrites out there, who can't see themselves.

He was a hate-merchant who attacked the vulnerable. He deserves our sympathy. He did not deserve to die. But he does not deserve our admiration.

Sorry, man. You lost me on this one. Pretty fucked up of you.

I watched a few videos of him, I thought he was ok, I disagree with almost everything he says, but while he could be short tempered, I thought he was mostly respectful and generous toward most people.

That's okay. We don't have to agree on everything.

I have been watching the campus interactions. He is very respectful, and really listens. He's just trying to persuade w/ his own ideas and good arguments.

Imo, we need more of that.

Can u link up one of his so called hate statements?

Yeah, he proclaimed it would be "patriotic to bail out Paul Pelosi's attacker". Yeah. Really fucking thoughtful.

He called George Floyd, a black man murdered by a cop on camera in front of us - "a scumbag". <--sweet, huh?

Here are some others. Have fun with your admiration for that "sweet" guy!

“Jewish communities have been pushing the exact kind of hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them” The Charlie Kirk Show

“You do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken really seriously. You had to go steal a white person’s slot to go be taken somewhat seriously.” On prominent Black women — The Charlie Kirk Show

“We need to have a Nuremberg-style trial for every gender-affirming clinic doctor. We need it immediately.” – The Charlie Kirk Show



“The American Democrat party hates this country. They wanna see it collapse. They love it when America becomes less white.” — The Charlie Kirk Show

He has a right to those opinions. I disagree, but it’s his right. He treats people respectfully most of the time. He fundamentally misunderstands big chunks of the Constitution.

 

[Jarod]

He sounds smarter and more educated than the kids he debates, but dumber about the law than most lawyers I know.

Some points for peckerwood boy

• Civil Rights Act of 1964: Kirk called the passage of this landmark legislation a "mistake" and an "anti-white weapon".
• Black pilots: In 2024, Kirk stated, "If I see a Black pilot, I'm going to be like, 'Boy, I hope he's qualified'".
• Kirk was accused of antisemitism for promoting "replacement theory". In 2023, he claimed Jewish donors were funding "anti-whiteness" by supporting liberal causes and that Jews controlled Hollywood and other institutions. Fox News issued a correction regarding one report on his statements about Jewish people.
• Violence against LGBTQ+ people: In 2023, Kirk commented that people should have "just took care of" transgender people "the way we used to take care of things in the 1950s and 60s," a period marked by police violence and institutionalization against queer people. A reporter also recalled him referencing a Bible passage that calls for stoning gay people to death.

No, Truth, truth, truth!

Stephen King was right: Charlie Kirk said stoning gays was 'God's perfect law'

Celebrated novelist Stephen King has issued an apology for his comments following the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk, despite accurately representing the right-wing activist's violent rhetoric against LGBTQ+ people.

www.yahoo.com

"In 2024, reacting to a video from YouTuber Ms. Rachel, in which she talks about the importance of "love thy neighbor" in the Bible, Kirk paraphrased a passage from Leviticus that advocates for stoning gay people, calling it "God's perfect law when it comes to sexual matters."

"By the way, Ms. Rachel, you might wanna crack open that Bible of yours," he said to camera. "In a lesser referenced part of the same part of scripture is…in Leviticus 18 is that, 'thou shall lay with another man, shall be stoned to death.' Just sayin'."

I accept your apology for your ignorance.

Kirk was more interested in inflaming than debating

I will say this, since it's provable fact. Charlie Kirk was a high school graduate who found celebrity in being a Rightwing pundit.

But not appalled at someone being fired for a pic in Rebel Flag shorts

North Charleston Sgt. Shannon Dildine Fired for Wearing Confederate Flag Boxer Shorts
​

Univision presenter fired over remark about Michelle Obama imitator​

• Marine Corps Sergeant (2012): Sgt. Gary Stein was given an "other-than-honorable" discharge from the military for criticizing Obama on social media, including suggesting he would not follow orders from him.
• 
  
• Riot Games: A senior executive was fired for a Facebook post that questioned George Floyd's character and downplayed his murder.

FedEx: An employee was fired after a video showed him mocking George Floyd's death at a protest.

• The police chief at Troy University in Alabama was terminated for social media comments suggesting Floyd "absolutely" helped cause his own death.

Plenty more

But I guess those were different
