They're really trying to push this lame podcaster as something more than he is.

When he died I think all right wingers secretly got happy thinking they could turn him into a martyr and that he was now worth more dead than alive.

Their disappointment is kind of amusing, not gonna lie

When he was shot wasn’t he blowing some racist dog whistle, implying that gun violence is caused by minorities? …and then was shot by a white guy.

His head was very not tiny. His face however…

i really hope charlie kirk's kids would come out as lgbtq in the future. seriously!

That would be pretty funny, but I when I saw the video my take away was "holy shit, she's already slept with Vance and is building cover"

Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org · 25 pts · 243d

His life was like a lame joke that somehow got tied together by the perfect punchline that was his death. His many retrospectively ironic quotes, the etsy witch thing, his widow with couch fucker, the sheer violence of his human fountain style assassination by a right wing gun nut. You couldn't make this stuff up but luckily you don't have to.

JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 23 pts · 243d

I will remember how every time I saw a picture of him I genuinely couldn't tell if his face had been shrunk

Ooh, shots fired.

He will be remembered for being shot. That's about it.

Forgot the teeny tiny face.

DylanMc6@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 243d

face so small, you CAN'T even look at it through a microscope

GladiusB@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 242d

I doubt it. How many people talk about racism from 200 years ago? It's just "this person was murdered".

mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 242d

for being shot in a very ironic setting and manner

Remembered for dying of a fentanyl overdose before the bullet could kill him😔

Try to think of the dozen of hours his wife spent mourning when you make comments like that.

_stranger_@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 242d

hours seems like a stretch.

His face really was tiny as fuck. Weirdo.

Had to be, in order to fit all the hate into his skull.

I’ve already seen video game humor where a guy opens his Resident Evil 2 playthrough preparing to shoot a zombie by announcing “Anyway, counting or not counting gang violence?”

Kirk was supposed to be the modern Horst Wessel. Yeah. That didn't work out.

Akasazh@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 243d

Horst Weasel

nickhammes@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 243d

Instead he became a modern George Lincoln Rockwell.

TeamTeddy@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 242d

It'd be a lot easier to forget that guy if he didn't almost immediately become a punchline on social media

hamid@crazypeople.online · 5 pts · 242d

I can never tell if his face is photoshopped to be smaller or that is just how it is

This should be every MAGAts reaction when presented with this burn. But it would require the smallest amount of think-before-you-speak or self-reflection.

i prefer people like rosa parks, dr. martin luther king jr and malcolm x and such, for they have basic human decency like most people (and unlike charlie kirk). seriously!

theneverfox@pawb.social · 7 pts · 242d (4 replies)

But they didn't lose the gun debate, in fact I don't think they lost the debate on any issue

Honestly, it's more accurate to say MLK was assassinated because he was winning the debate too well. Certain people got nervous when he started talking about workers right and explotation...

Kirk was literally pro-gun violence, he died in the act of defending it. His literal last words were "Do you include gang violence?"

DylanMc6@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 242d (3 replies)

that is true, charlie kirk wanted everyone to be all guns blazing everywhere - his last words were actually "counting or NOT counting gang violence?" (something like that). seriously!

theneverfox@pawb.social · 1 pts · 242d (2 replies)

I wasn't paraphrasing lol, but yeah, exactly. The exchange was about the percentage of trans shooters, and he was muddying the point because trans people are under represented as mass shooters, despite being like .5% of the population. And even that includes people who have detransioned due to social pressure... If you don't count that profile, I don't know if there's a single trans shooter

So yeah, he was both racist and transphobic in his last moments

He also had such positions like "if some kids have to die, that's just the price of the second amendment" (that I am paraphrasing)

Hell, he started wearing a bullet proof vest to events not long before that. He knew what he was doing, but grifters gotta grift

DylanMc6@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 242d (1 reply)

a lot of tragedies were actually perpetuated by cis people. oh, and charlie kirk was a jerk (and i mean the jerk that denis leary sang about in the song "asshole"). seriously!

theneverfox@pawb.social · 1 pts · 241d

The vast majority, yes. And he truly was

How many times do you think his name was redacted from the epstein files?

FerretyFever0@fedia.io · 20 pts · 243d (3 replies)

Probably about 0 if we're being realistic. He wasn't really around for any of that stuff.

BarbedDentalFloss@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 7 pts · 243d (1 reply)

He might've been a victim for a well we know. Prince Andrew had some kinks.

Yeah everyone should take note the age of all the Epstein file people. All people 50 plus.

He wasn't important or influential enough for any of that

shalafi@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 243d (1 reply)

Or old enough! Why are we even entertaining this idea?!

vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 243d

He was plenty old enough back in the 90s. Not as a victimizer though.

I'll remember that a pedo got arrested before they found the other Nazi guy was the shooter. The pedo said he was the real shooter and then was arrested. By the time the FBI realized pedo wasn't the actual shooter, they found the child porn. What a weird turn of events.
