Article is from a year ago…

Here’s Kirk, in his own words. Many of his comments were documented by Media Matters for America, a progressive non-profit that tracks conservative media.

On race If I see a Black pilot, I’m going to be like, boy, I hope he’s qualified. – The Charlie Kirk Show, 23 January 2024

If you’re a WNBA, pot-smoking, Black lesbian, do you get treated better than a United States marine? – The Charlie Kirk Show, 8 December 2022

Happening all the time in urban America, prowling Blacks go around for fun to go target white people, that’s a fact. It’s happening more and more. – The Charlie Kirk Show, 19 May 2023

On gun violence I think it’s worth it to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the second amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational. – Event organized by TPUSA Faith, the religious arm of Kirk’s conservative group Turning Point USA, on 5 April 2023

Sources say that the planchette on the Ouija board moved. However, investigations showed that was not what happened.

Agreed, just wanted to remind folks of some of the horrible things he stood for as streets, and public parks, etc are being renamed in his honor.

Agreed. It's just as bad as naming shit for some Confederate asshole.

Never understood celebrating the loosing side unless you really cherished the values they stood for...which yah...

I find it funny how this piece of shit got immortalized in deep fake TikToks for eternity.

BuckFutter@timeyak.com · 1 pts · 11d (1 reply)

Thats probably one of the least ironic things, but yah still, people still need to get clicks on their videos however they can.

PalmTreeIsBestTree@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 11d

Not all comedy has to be ironic. It’s just funny to me is all.

Dont let this distract from the fact that Israel killed him for criticizing them.

He was a shithead knuckledragger, but also a casualty of our fascist overlords

Yah there was a lot of irony in his death, from more than one direction.

PlantJam@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 12d (1 reply)

But still mostly from one very specific direction.

genuinely a stupid thing to think. Charlie has been to Isreal and was way more pro Isreal than most people.
