All great world-historic facts and personages appear twice. The first time as farce, the second time as travesty

This is a humorous meme, not meant to actually stereotype all guys, conservatives, or people scared of cities. Or conservative guys who are scared of cities.

This is a humorless rightwing pundit, opining about a mass shooting with 4 + shooter dead in NYC perpetrated by someone from out of state.

I thought mass shootings belonged in Texas?

Yeah, it's a mystery as to why so many rural/suburban people are hesitant about going to major cities

It's almost like people think there's something scary or "wrong" with being attacked by 5 people, and then having a man punch out their GF and leave her bleeding on the pavement.

White people are super fragile like that.

They say super racist things like
"Please stop hitting me"
"Stop calling my wife a [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse]"
and
"Just leave us alone and get outta here"

And then wonder why those 5 guys had to defend themselves by kicking him in the face multiple times while their friend recorded it while shouting "hell yeah, stomp his ass"

People are so weird like that.

I'm not sure they belong anywhere, but as other people roasting Kirk have pointed out, Phoenix AZ (where he lives) has twice the murder rate of NYC.

In fact, in 2022 Manhattan had less than half the murder rate of Phoenix (five killed per 100,000 in Manhattan versus a tragic 13 in Phoenix, Maricopa County’s largest city).

If yo want to live where murders happen. Then you need to moved to the Ms Delta, big cities have nothing on this area.

You mean the ritzy borough of NYC had fewer murders than Phoenix (which is a primary hub for transient drug and human trafficking for the Sinaloa cartel), I'm shocked.

Let the two populations and city governments trade geographic locations and I bet that would be an eye opener.

With regards to Charlie's statement, he's probably looking at it through the lens of "rich people goggles"

I'm assuming with his money, he's probably living in a swanky suburb of Phoenix and and not in "Phoenix proper"

Reminiscent of the yuppies here in Ohio who say "Cleveland's not so bad, not sure why it gets that reputation" while they're living in the gentrified Tremont district where the average condo is $400k+ and everyone there makes six figures.

I'm sure the neighborhood Charlie lives in is quite safe

New York has been considered dangerous way befor Charlie Kirk was born. Watch the 1970 movie The Out Of Towners.

A "ritzy borough"? Seriously?

Manhattan includes the neighborhoods of Hell's Kitchen, Alphabet City, Harlem (regular and Spanish), Five Points, Chinatown, etc. Not to mention several large public housing projects. For crying out loud several famous American TV crime dramas take place entirely within Manhattan (at least the police work), like Law and Order (classic) and NYPD Blue where they were also filmed. If you think what is portrayed on screen was "ritzy" then we have very different ideas about wealth.

Manhattan (New York County) is the 20th most populous county in the US and, by far, the smallest by area of the top 100.
