Interesting article.

This result undercuts some of Trump’s mythmaking about Kirk and young voters. Trump often claims to have won Gen Z voters in the 2024 election, which is not true. While Trump narrowly won young men, thanks in part to Kirk’s hard work, young voters overall broke for Kamala Harris. The poll also found that white students were more likely to agree with Kirk’s views than Black or Latino students. And it uncovered that students at two-year colleges were more likely to agree with Kirk than students at four-year colleges or universities. Young men were also 10 points more likely to agree with Kirk than young women.

One bright spot in the poll: Despite recent social media posts from angry young liberals dancing on Kirk’s grave—evidence of “hate speech” from the left, according to the White House—the vast majority of college students disagreed with the question: Do you think it is ever okay to physically harm someone because of their political beliefs? Among students, 86 percent said no, while just 13 percent responded, “Yes, it’s okay in some cases.” A statistically insignificant 1 percent of students said physical harm is okay in many cases. “It’s a fringe view, but one that’s had the worst consequences,” said Cyrus Beschloss, the founder of Generation Lab.

The polling firm also found that most college students didn’t regularly watch or listen to Kirk’s content: 36 percent said they never listened to or watched Kirk in the past year, while another 33 percent said they had engaged “once or twice.” Meanwhile, a combined 30 percent said they watched or listened to Kirk “a few times per month,” “a few times per week,” or daily. That’s not a small number—any legacy media company would love to have their content reach 30 percent of college students every month. Kirk was absolutely a success story in his world, a brilliant political activist and a talented communicator, as I wrote back in March. His murder is a tragedy, an affront to our democratic values, and another ugly sign that political violence is becoming commonplace.

And that is why Charlie invited them to explain why they disagreed and why Charlie dismantled their faulty arguments. I'd be more interested to see how many of their opinions were changed by Charlie. An assassin that is 4 years older than Charlie was when he started TALKING to people. Charlie was never so weak in facts that he had to kill anyone.
 
Seriously...just look around.

...great post....I look forward to her answer...
 
I think it’s funny that the OP thinks 30% of that demographic agreeing with Charlie Kirk’s views are insignificant. That is actually a HUGE number and WHY the left wanted him taken out. If he were really insignificant they would have left him be. The left will always tell you who they fear
