We Must Not Posthumously Sanitize Charlie Kirk's Hateful Life

Yesterday, while giving a campus speech, far-right activist and anti-LGBTQ+ influencer Charlie Kirk was assassinated by a gunman—another grim marker of how political violence has become a recurring feature of American life. Quickly, political figures and pundits rushed to denounce the killing, as they should. But some went further, valorizing and lionizing a man who built his career on contempt of people he viewed as lesser. Political violence is corrosive and we must not excuse it—killing Charlie Kirk was horrific. But we also must not sanitize the memory of a man who wished harm on those he disagreed with, and who spread a message of hate to anyone willing to listen or pay him to so. We can denounce the violent killing of Charlie Kirk without praising his abhorrent legacy.

Yesterday, Gavin Newsom tweeted that we should “continue the work” of Charlie Kirk and honor his memory. This morning, centrist columnist Ezra Klein published a column titled “Charlie Kirk Was Practicing Politics The Right Way.” Both paint a portrait of an open-minded Kirk, a man of dialogue and principle. But this is not his legacy. To call for “continuing his work” or to praise how he “practiced politics” is to erase what that work actually was: a relentless campaign of hate directed at LGBTQ+ people, racial and ethnic minorities, and anyone who refused to fall in line.

I read the entire piece and Reed rightfully does not spare the 'legacy' of Kirk. He was a hatemonger and a self-righteous shitheel. Newsom's anodyne blithering doesn't change that. In fact it only confirms once again that Newsom is an unctuous pandering slug on his best day.

There's quite a lot of "crazy" bubbling up to the surface because of the Kirk murder. Apparently the US is now living in fear of lefry spiritual terrorism.

because the current, government backed, right wing fascistic terrorism is so much better?

Honestly, I' m surprised the southern battle flag has not entered the emblems of Maga

Not the best of company. I don't pay much attention to the "provocative" types when they provoke more heat than light, so I don't know much about the guy. He sounds a bit like that silly twat Cunt was always on about. What was that guys name?

[Joe]

Duplicate.

[L'Emmerdeur]

He sounds a bit like that silly twat ... What was that guys name?

You're probably thinking of Mr Yaxley-Lennon nom de guerre 'Tommy Robinson.' There was a large rally in London at which he featured as a prominent speaker.

That guy is a prize too, but I was thinking of Stephen Crowder. It took me a while to remember.
