Am I the only one who never heard of Charlie Kirk until he was killed?
I'm still not sure why he was any bigger of a deal than any other racist.
Ok, a racist got shot.
And?
Not sure why we should suddenly make him into a big deal. If anything, I'd rather have seen more racists get shot.
He wasnt just an average racist he was the core propaganda arm of the MAGA movement.
He was the figure head for a very effective political youth recruitment program. He had a huge influence on both elections for trump. I think his organisation turning point USA infected hundreds of high school and university campuses. Turning point faith was started to do the same blueprint but with churches. He was pure evil scum.
The oligarchs were trying to stir up their base to perform βretaliatoryβ terrorist attacks.
Loose cannons are notoriously hard to aim...
He was a popular (on the right) political figure that constantly towed the line on propaganda that demonized everyone modern Republicans hate. Just because YOU didn't hear about him says less than nothing about how influential he was in swaying opinion.
He was about as popular as the, "change my mind" meme dipshit (Steven Crowder) for years, at least until chowderhead dug his own grave getting his security cam footage leaked of him whining like a little baby trying to control his pregnant wife's freedom.
"BuT ThAt DoEsN't WoRk FoR mE, _eItHeR!!" Steven Fuckface, said to his pregnant wife trying to go to the store in one of several vehicles they owned...
They're fucking scum, and part of the reason Trump is so popular amongst the grossly ignorant right wing to this day.
Wait, what is this? I think I somehow missed this one.
Sadly the only presently easily findable source is https://www.dailymail.com/news/article-12022427/Steven-Crowder-seen-disturbing-Ring-footage-verbally-abusing-heavily-pregnant-wife.html but believe you me, that clown is nothing more than a petulant child who happened to get old.
(there should be more youtube footage of political commentators commenting about it around the time, but I'm far too lazy to look it up as it was everywhere in the right circles at the time)
This is exactly why it became such a meme. People were told to take some pod bro seriously and people just laughed.
