"We are all kirk now"? Meaning you can now be Kirk'd by your own followers? I'm good with that! When do you start?

[–] treesquid@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Not by his own followers. It would be more like Alex Jones getting popped by a Glenn Beck fan

Alex Jones went on his show the day Charlie Kirk died and within 20 minutes of the shots started exploiting the whole story for his own gains, letting the video of the shot hitting Kirk play on loop, in slowmo, "zoom in on that" while plugging his products and rambling about the left. He is a disgusting piece of shit grifter that doesn't stop exploiting people's misery, even if it's one of his own. Kirk wasn't even pronounced dead before Jones started building a narrative around it. If I were someone from Kirks family or company I would sue the living shit out of Jones for this, it is vile and disgusting even his co-host was a little taken aback by it.

It’s still in play! https://www.cnn.com/2025/08/13/media/infowars-alex-jones-onion-sale-texas-judge

I wish I could find the article I found the day the decision was made but it mentioned that it’s now more likely that The Onion gets it. 🤞

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's good news! Thank you

But shit. Jones still won't be going away.

Jones is free to keep broadcasting his show, and he has said he will do so under a different brand.

How do you pay for everything when you're a billion in debt?

[–] Omgpwnies@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

In Boomer Logic(TM) it's easy! Just walk into business factory company inc and demand a job, which they will obviously just hand you one, and it will pay so well that as long as you don't even think about avocado toast, you'll be a billionaire by the weekend!

Almost as if any of these grifters don't believe anything they themselves say. I thought it would be more comforting that these people were idiots, but no, its just evil.

This meme does indeed contain someone who was the actual crisis actor all along.

Republicans keep acting like they weren’t the ones starting this trend. They were nasty towards Obama for 8 years. And Trump came in and increased the nastiness towards anybody that said anything against him.

[–] takeda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 31 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Republicans keep acting like they weren’t the ones starting this trend.

The guy that shot the Kirk was still one of them, just from a sect that couldn't stand him.

If anything, from recent assassinations only Luigi could be connected with the left, but even then it looks more like he did it due to personal experience with UnitedHealth.

Oh, did he have plans for his future? So does everyone gunned down by senseless violence. Including criminals. Including people of colour. Including school children. Get off your high horse you lying faker, no one cares about you or your guy anymore than you care about the hundreds of school children gunned down every year in your country. I thought this idiot lost his platform? Wasn't he forced to sell it when he lost that lawsuit about him lying and harassing children?!

The left is now celebrating Charlie Kirk's brutal murder

I'm guessing there are some who do, but I can only speak for myself.

And for myself, I'm not celebrating his brutal murder. I'm mostly just very satisfied that first, he won't be spreading lies and misinformation anymore.

Second, that it's apparently right on right violence. The left isn't responsible and it's the right's violent rhetoric that is giving them all of this grief.

Third, that an evil person got his comeuppance in a manner consistent with his own rhetoric, and so all of the right's hypocrisy is exposed.

Fourth, that the shooter's engraving on his ammunition show pretty clearly that he's been failed by the education system and has succumbed to the sort of memeing brain rot that has become our modern plague, so I get to talk about that.

Charlie Kirk was simply a person who improved a room by his absence. And now, he's gone for good.

[–] sad_detective_man@sopuli.xyz 16 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

TBF, it's literally me. I probably shouldn't front like nobody is celebrating because my post history is full of heinous and bloodthirsty jubilation at his death. I'm just not at risk for the doxxing that 4chuds are doing this week so I'm not hiding it.

But you know the fact Kirk died and not any of the individuals who are now pretending to be victims is a fluke belying that the shooter had priorities beyond affecting the actual changes that would result from their deaths.

This isn't actual fear, this is just opportunism to play victim once again and drum up more insanity from people who are so far removed from danger that it only exists mythologically to them

David Hogg is surprisingly good at this stuff. I wish him a long and successful career. I realize that will probably mean I’m going to hate his guts in twenty years, but that’s ok.

[–] sad_detective_man@sopuli.xyz 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don't actually know about him. What's his deal?

[–] naught@sh.itjust.works 34 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Victim of the Parkland high school shooting who went viral and political by taking the position that children should not be shot. He does activism now

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago

political by taking the position that children should not be shot.

Absolute state of greatest country in the world.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's insane that an activist needs to even take that position.

I really don't get how people can see what Charlie Kirk has said and celebrate this man's message. Our country is already fallen to idiocy.

[–] Tinidril@midwest.social 29 points 1 day ago

It's because to them the only thing that mattered was his in-group status. He was a "great Christian", not because he followed Jesus, but simply because he identified as such and did it loudly.

[–] EtnaAtsume@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago

They don't see what he said. Most of the probably haven't actually listened to him or even thought about him before this.

But even if they had listened to him in the past, or looked him up now, the grounding bias of "he's a good person"/"he's on our side" has been established. That's a bias that's nearly intractable.

what left? random bluesky accounts and maybe a few youtubers? When the right calls for violence and makes fun of the dead its the most powerful man and the richest man in the world and actual lawmakers. They are literally trying to equate that to uwu_unicorn123 and their 3 followers posting cringe on bluesky.

Facists are such emotionally unstable crybabies. When they throw tantrums people die.

[–] AlexLost@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

Such a fake. These man babies can't even practice what they preach. At least Charlie was man enough to stand up for what he believed in.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 day ago

That's the prospect that right wing morons face with their legacy after they die ..... they get to be eulogized and remembered by absolute asshats like this.

Not only do you get to be remembered by the majority of everyone as a jerk but the only people that will come to your defense and memory are other jerks.

He should be sued whenever he talks about school shootings.

[–] notabot@piefed.social 9 points 1 day ago

He should be sued whenever he talks ~~about school shootings~~.

Let's face it, even if he's not talking about school shootings he's going to be saying something evil.

The irony of it all: the shooter shot Kirk becuse he wasn't him conservative enough.
