He had almost 23 million followers across TikTok, Instagram, Twitter/X, and YouTube, which is about 6 to 7 percent of the U.S. population right now. That is the kind of reach you only see with the biggest voices of a generation. For comparison, MLK had around 10 million active supporters through churches and marches back in 1968, about 5 percent of the population then.

Kirk knew how to use the tools of his time the same way MLK did. King worked through TV and newspapers, Kirk worked through TikTok, podcasts, and social media. Both relied on words, not violence. King pushed peaceful protest, Kirk pushed debate and activism. Up until his death today, Kirk was the face of conservative youth in America, shaping the conversation for millions. You may not know his impact, but it is strong, and many are already equating him to MLK for the conservative movement because of the reach, the speeches, and the nonviolent approach.

23 million unique followers or are some people counted multiple times because they followed him on multiple platforms? Also, how do you know how many accounts are real versus bots?

RIP Charlie Kirk. As a Chicagoan, I was a big fan! So saddened by the loss of your life, and saddened for your wife, children, and family. May god embrace you in his arms. Heaven needed another angel. Gone too soon but your legacy will live on.

Aren’t they currently “the deep state” that doesn’t even make sense.

They believe that the deep state is separate from the President.

My teenage daughter is devastated. She during covid she became depressed, lost on the internet, she/they etc. She found Charlie Kirk and TPU and it helped her clarify her values, turn to God, and make healthier choices. She sees people on Snapchat celebrating his death.

This assassination will only galvanize the conservative youth. God is moving among and through Gen Z men. They understand that laws will not save us, politics will not save us, only Jesus can save us. Christ is King.

“Charlie Kirk has been vocal about the need for transparency regarding Jeffrey Epstein and has urged the Trump administration to disclose more information about the case. He has expressed skepticism over the government's handling of Epstein-related evidence and the conclusions drawn by the Justice Department and FBI.

In carefully edited to his benefit clips, yes. There are alternatively edited clips of his debates where he is the one "destroyed."

All in all, editing can just show opinion. Not fact.

Europe unites to condemn ‘horrific assassination’ of Trump ally Charlie Kirk
Italian leader Giorgia Meloni calls the shooting “a deep wound for democracy.”

The killing of American conservative influencer Charlie Kirk sparked a wave of condemnation from European leaders across the political spectrum overnight.

European Parliament President Roberta Metsola, from the center-right European People’s Party, said she was “shocked at the horrific assassination.”


British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, from the center-left Labour Party, rebuked political violence and said his thoughts are with Kirk’s loved ones.
“It is heartbreaking that a young family has been robbed of a father and a husband. We must all be free to debate openly and freely without fear — there can be no justification for political violence,” Starmer said.

He’s right. This is America, and in America you can’t kill people for speech you disagree with, even if the speech is ugly.
