This article doesn't even describe the worst of it.

There are countless social media messages and videos of people laughing, cheering, dancing that Charlie Kirk was assassinated.

This isn't some fringe group hiding in a dark hole in the corner of the internet.

They are school teachers, academics, healthcare workers, government workers, city officials, administrators, members of military, etc.

Hundreds of them, at least, on record proudly expressing their joy over this murder. If you have X you can go watch them now.


The more "moderate" leftists / liberals are running cover for this ghastly reality, as the media desperately tries to churn out reports of "conservatives politicizing the event" "Right-wingers are just as bad!!!"

But we can see the truth.

This is who the Left is - not their fringe but their core. They celebrate violence and death against their political enemies - especially someone like Charlie Kirk, who was just a mainstream moderate conservative guy whose only crime was openly challenging Leftist ideology. To them, that was worse than being a murderer or a rapist, and deserving of death, which they now cheer on.

It has never been clearer that the supposed "moral equivalence between the Right and Left" is an illusion.

The Left / Liberals are going to be working overtime to try and make this reality go away but it's too late - too many people have seen it.

The level of open depravity even shocked me and I had considered myself desensitized to this sort of thing.



We better pray these people never get back into power because they know they've been seen now and will not hold back.

What a touching tribute. Politicizing his death to continue beating up on the left and further dividing the country is what Charlie would have wanted.

It’s not meant to be a tribute.

Politicizing his death

Charlie was a political figure, so it’s inherently political.

to continue beating up on the left and further dividing the country

It’s not about beating up on the left, it’s about exposing those on the left beating up on a dead man.


BTW Here’s you politicizing his death by beating up on the right and further dividing this country.



is what Charlie would have wanted.
How do you know what Charlie would have wanted?

What the article describes is not even particularly bad. It's mostly variations on "I didn't like him when he was alive, so I have no empathy/sympathy now that he's dead."

I had to post a mainstream news article - that's what I found.

You're right, the really bad stuff are the hundreds of videos and social media posts you could go confirm yourself if you wanted, but then you wouldn't be able to deny it and you'd rather not put yourself in that position would you?

Are there really? How many have seven fingers on each hand?

So that's all you have then - simple denial of reality.

Good luck because millions of Americans are all watching it in real-time as we speak.

The Blaze is not mainstream and that polemic is not a new article.
You're right, the really bad stuff are the hundreds of videos and social media posts you could go confirm yourself if you wanted, but then you wouldn't be able to deny it and you'd rather not put yourself in that position would you?
What you're posting is really bad stuff, meant less to inform than to inflame - rage bait. "Look how bad you people are" is useful how?
So that's all you have then - simple denial of reality.
Reality is considerably broader than you seem to realize. There are hateful people on the left, on the right and some even in the middle (general misanthropes). I am sure I noticed people high up on the right, e.g. Trump, jumping to blame Democrats or "the left."
Good luck because millions of Americans are all watching it in real-time as we speak.
So demonizing everyone on the left is being seen and even applauded by some. Why do you feel the need to provoke even more rage when there seems to be plenty enough already to go around.

His death provides a convenient distraction from the GOP's refusal to release the Epstein files. Kirk wanted them released, after all.
You seem bothered by the fact that the world doesn't revolve around Epstein.

Is he getting beat up really?

Kirk said a lot of awful things about a lot of people.

DO you expect people to take abuse from someone and then show reverence when they're dead?

Then how do you explain the threats made to several HBCUs? If I followed your line of thought I’d have to pin it on the right. After all, why would liberals threaten students of color and force the schools to go on lockdown and close in response?

Weren’t you saying how dangerous black on white crimes were yesterday? Nothing like a few lunatics to change the narrative.

Are you being facetious or for real? Haven’t you read his bio? He was a member of the Trilateral Commission and Council on Foreign Relations. They’re not breaking ranks for the little guy. They’ll throw you a bone or two but you’ll never know the truth.

So Charlie apparently said a lot of awful things about a lot of people and now a lot of people are saying awful things about him. I’m sure you’re seeing the problem here. They’ve become like Charlie.

And while the people Charlie supposedly said awful things to had the opportunity to respond, Charlie doesn’t have that option. Kicking a person when they’re down is what cowards do.

No one is asking these people to revere him, just to show some decency and not mock the husband of a wife who’s children have just lost their father. I thought the left was all about empathy.

I heard this great quote today:
"Don't become the hate you claim to fight."

It’s form this video that debunks a lot of the “awful things” Charlie is accusing of saying.

It's the arena he chose. I've got an opinion on the guy and it isn't complimentary. It hasn't changed because he was shot.

There have been worse things than what was shown in that particular video.

I saw one where a group of girls (and perhaps I'm using that term a little loosely), probably in their 20's, were doing a "Dead Fascist Dance Party" where they were jumping around and cheering singing the "nananana hey hey goodbye" song.


The thing that should be a red flag to some of the people on the left (or at least make them take notice)

Watch the Hasan Piker episode where he covers this.

Hasan is pretty far left as you can get ideologically speaking (for those who are familiar with him). He's had several very heated public debates against Charlie, and had one scheduled for 2 weeks from now actually.

He first watches the video of Charlie getting shot

He's genuinely horrified, he's clearly teary eyed and very horrified by what he saw.
(not sure why it's showing the video as age-restricted, it doesn't show the shooting, just his reaction to it)

Later, he reacts to some of these "Haha, look Charlie's dead" videos coming from tiktokers and says "this country is <bleeped>", and urged people from his own tribe to stop joking about it


Rule of thumb, if someone like Hasan Piker is saying "whoa, you guys have gone so left it's crazy", that's quite telling.

That'd be like Matt Walsh criticizing conservatives saying "Whoa, guys, you're going a little nuts with the Anti-trans stuff"

I would say we are at about verse 32 of the cycle...

Romans 1:18-32 KJV
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

This is who the Left is - not their fringe but their core. They celebrate violence and death against their political enemies - especially someone like Charlie Kirk, who was just a mainstream moderate conservative guy whose only crime was openly challenging Leftist ideology.

Charlie Kirk said that gays deserve to be killed, women should not work outside the home, the 1964 Civil Rights Act was a mistake, and that Martin Luther King Jr. was a person of poor character. Those aren't moderate stances. Those are extreme.

Charlie Kirk also owned two luxury homes. One worth almost 5 million dollars, the other almost a million. Again, not a normal guy. Most people in his generation don't even own a home. However, it does demonstrate how being a right-wing provocateur and grifter can be lucrative and rewarding financially.

To them, that was worse than being a murderer or a rapist, and deserving of death, which they now cheer on.

Very few serious commentators actually are saying that Charlie Kirk deserved death.
