By now, I’m sure you know right-wing shit-stirrer Charlie Kirk was murdered by Tyler Robinson. I shed not a tear for Kirk. His rhetoric and bigotry cannot be ignored as a contributing factor in his murder. While I certainly feel sorry for Kirk’s wife and children, I refuse to ignore what led to his death. (And it goes without saying, as a pacifist, I oppose all violence, including political.)
What follows is a list of hateful, bigoted things Charlie Kirk has said in the past.
[Kirk called the Civil Rights Act] “a huge mistake.”
“Black women like Joy Reid, Ketanji Brown Jackson, Sheila Jackson Lee, and Michelle Obama … used affirmative action because they do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken really seriously. So they had to steal a white person’s slot.”
“The perverse gift of the Chinese coronavirus is that it has given Americans an up close and personal look at the horrors of big government — and, by extension, socialism.”
“Conservatives are branded bigots and we are falsely accused of hate speech when we express traditional values and ideas that have made America the greatest country on Earth.”
“Democrats have long been the party of voter fraud.”
“We’ve been conditioned to see a video of white people in MAGA hats standing in front of a Native American and assume that the white people are racists.”
“Americans needs to understand that the election of Donald Trump has forestalled our slide into the abyss of cultural Marxism and the surrendering of our national heritage and identity to that of the global community.”
“Historically, Democrats have shown they are willing to do just about anything to win elections. Republicans must quit taking the high road and fight back with everything we have.”
“We have to teach goodness to our infants.”
“Rick Warren promoted the vaccine and BLM in 2020 while he was pastor of Saddleback. Typical modern preacher — they get mad when you get involved in conservative (biblical) issues but enthusiastically use the church for secular left-wing aims. Shouldn’t ever be called a ‘pastor.’ For the last decade he’s done serious harm to Christianity and the country.”
“I think it’s worth (the) 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.”
“Brazil has become a key battleground in the global clash between the power of the people and the tyranny of a corrupt globalist machine. TPUSA is honored to host President Jair Bolsonaro in Miami THIS FRIDAY for his first public event following the recent Brazilian elections.”
“The higher the building, the more liberal the voter. It just is. The closer to the ground you are, the more conservative you are.”
“To all college students who have their professors switching to online classes: Please share any and ALL videos of blatant indoctrination with @TPUSA. … Now is the time to document & expose the radicalism that has been infecting our schools.”
“I can’t stand the word ‘empathy,’ actually. I think ‘empathy’ is a made-up, new-age term that does a lot of damage.”
“We have been propagandized by liars and fakers in the media to believe that America is a vicious, racist country and indiscriminate attacks on black people by whites happen all the time. But the numbers tell the truth. Black attacks on white people happen 3X more often than white on black crime, despite blacks being only 13% of the population. Why won’t the media just tell the truth? Why lie when those lies result in innocent people dying?”
“Islam is the sword the left is using to slit the throat of America.”
“The American way of life is very simple. I want to be able to get married, buy a home, have kids, allow them to ride their bike till the sun goes down, send them to a good school, have a low crime neighborhood, not to have my kid be taught the lesbian, gay, transgender garbage in their school. While also, not having them have to hear the Muslim call to prayer five times a day. That’s important.”
“Democrat women want to die alone without children.”
“We don’t have enough people in prison in America. We need a lot more prisoners.”
“Ignore the geriatric haters in the US Senate. Sec. Kennedy is advancing the people’s agenda and We the People have his back 100%.”
“Thanks to chain migration, Muslims are now a majority in Michigan’s Dearborn Heights (named after a Revolutionary War general). Now, local police have rolled out the country’s first-ever police badge with Arabic script. When you get conquered, you get a new language.”
“Marriage and motherhood make women happier, because of course they do.”
“Indoctrinating 5-year-old kindergartners that they can be something other than a boy or a girl is child abuse and should be illegal.”
“If people are voluntarily leaving 6 to 7 months into a presidential term to go back to their home country, maybe they weren’t actually fleeing oppression the way they say they were.”
“The Democrat Party is the party of crime. Write it down. They have normalized the idea that our cities are dumps and violence is just part of life. This is one of their key pillars in transforming America into a third world hell hole.”
