But who was listening to him other than radical right wing white young white males? Who else knew of his existence really? |
No one. |
I am not seeing anyone at all cheering. I am seeing people respond to his death in the exact same way he responded to other deaths. I am seeing people quote him word for word and then being told they are sick for making such comments. |

Tons of bomb threats against the left in the wake of this.

Oh, I’m seeing weird cheering in hysteria from ultra left-wing crazies. The people on the far left can be as crazy as the people on the far right |
Here's the recent timeline of the Epstein story: On July 7, 2025 Pam Bondi declared she would not release additional Epstein files following a Department of Justice memo which announced that no further disclosures would be warranted. That weekend there was a Turning Point conference where Charlie Kirk stoked the fires to release the files. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/trump-administration/trump-faces-revolt-maga-base-epstein-files-rcna218385 My guess is MTG and others are going to quiet down about the Epstein files now. |

At some point today it will become permissible to post negative statements about Kirk. I am not sure what time exactly the embargo will be lifted, but try to be patient for a few hours.

In case you were wondering why the incorrect rumor of “trans activist” and “fascist symbols” on ammo started, it’s because arrows and initials are common ways manufacturers stamp ammo.
Including “TRN” the ironsight and a direction broad arrow. https://bsky.app/profile/adamscochran.bsky.social/post/3lylxb2o7dc2a |
This was really irresponsible reporting. I am a fan of WSJ, but they put this on their front page. Egregious and now conspiracy theorists will never believe anything else. |
Are you trying to tell us that hearsay on Louder with Crowder was not a legitimate source? |
Kash Patel’s FBI everybody!

To all the people who say that no one knew this guy and that their well-informed kids didn't know him... sorry, but your kids are not well-informed.
I am 50-year-old mom and I get that, if you don't ever look at social media you may not have heard of him, but if you have teens you absolutely should have. Charlie Kirk was uber famous. There are memes about the memes about him. I am looking forward to when the 48-hours expire and we can discuss some of his views here. I wholeheartedly respect DCUM's rules and I condemn in the strongest possible terms what happened to Charlie Kirk. No one asks or deserves to me murdered. Political violence is horrible for all of us. But Charlie Kirk was a very famous public figure and there is no contradiction between denouncing the assassination and critiquing his views. |
This illustrates just how desperately the right wing is trying to create a specific narrative here. Anyone who knows anything about guns, which presumably includes the ATF agent who wrote the report, knows about headstamps on ammunition. No agent would draw any conclusion from those markings and I’m confident the report didn’t contain any such conclusion. Which means Crowder either doesn’t know ANYTHING about guns or he’s willfully distorting the contents of the report. |
