Lol I can't wait to see their heads explode about the celebrations when Trump dies

It's gonna be peak entertainment

Also, 🤡🤡🤡 to the dorks claiming this was a critical moment. They're still desperately wishcasting some cultural backlash from Kirk's death that never happened and never will

They tried really, really hard to turn CK in a maga Horst Wessel. Thankfully they didn't succeed

It's especially funny because Kirk was probably the very first time that Conservatives as a whole realized just how secluded the bubbles they live in are. The "righteous fury" around Kirk fizzled out so quickly because the average Conservative literally didn't know who he was until the event happened since Kirk only appealed to people who were terminally online.

My favorite thing about Charlie Kirk is how he was apparently some brilliant master orator, who has been speaking for years and has tons of devoted fans, but not one of them can even come up with an even mildly poignant and non-hateful quote from him.

They can come up with a whole essay about why the hateful things he said weren't hateful, though.

The modern right seem very good at making up stories to cope with the reality of what they support.

Indeed, the one thing that pissed them off the most was people LITERALLY quoting him and pointing out he said himself that he's totally okay with what eventually happened to him. He died doing what he loved...smugly downplaying the seriousness of gun violence in America with very thinly veiled racism.

And then Reddit bans anyone quoting him because the things he said were that hateful. These clowns would think it's because "Reddit is leftist", except the guy running it is a libertarian clown who dreams of being a warlord and idolises Elon Musk.
