My liberal friends are completely oblivious about how radicalizing the last week has been for tens of millions of normal Americans. Zero clue.
I’m not talking about people who are “online”; I mean regular, everyday Americans. “Normies.” People who scroll through Facebook posts and Instagram reels from the Dutch Bros drive thru line. Political moderates who have water cooler chats about Mahomes touchdowns and Bon Jovi concerts, not Twitter threads or Rachel Maddow monologues.
Millions of them. Tens of millions. They’re logging on, they’re engaging, and they’re furious.
And I’ll be candid: They blame you guys. They blame the left.
Regardless of whether you believe it to be justified, they think you’re the bad guys here. And they are reacting accordingly.
I can already hear some of you racing toward the comments to start screeching in moral indignation, so I’m going to be blunt: Shut up and listen to what I’m telling you. Your movement will lose any semblance of relevance if you don’t develop some small measure of self-awareness, and—absent someone force-feeding you bitter medicine—you guys collectively lack the humility to do this on your own.
Here are the facts:
Fact 1. Tens of millions of Americans started the week seeing a 23-year-old blonde woman—a young woman in whom virtually every parent watching pictured their own daughter—stabbed in the neck by a career criminal. These people then found out the murderer had been released from jail 14 times over.
Fact 2. Two days later, tens of millions of Americans watched a video of Charlie Kirk get murdered speaking to college students. Millions of these people knew who Charlie was; millions of them didn’t. Upon seeing the video, however, these normal Americans from across the land and across the political spectrum agreed that he was the victim of a terrible, fundamentally unjustifiable crime, and their hearts broke in sympathy for his family. Good people who had never even heard the name Charlie Kirk before wept.
Fact 3. Immediately after seeing the footage of a peaceful young man get shot in the neck, these same people logged onto Facebook and Instagram (remember, we are talking about regular Americans, not perpetually online Twitter or Bluesky users) and saw some of their local nurses, school teachers, college administrators, and retail workers celebrating this horrific crime. Not just defending it, but cheering it.
These are all facts. You may not like the implications of these facts, and we can certainly debate the underlying causes thereof, but, indisputably, they are nevertheless factual statements.
Here’s what it means for you, the Democrats reading this:
These normal, middle-of-the-road, non-political citizens just become politically active. They realized that politics cares about them, even if they don’t particularly care about politics. After watching Iryna Zarutska and Charlie Kirk both bleed out from the neck, they think their lives and the physical safety of their families—the bedrock of human society, the foundation of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs—depend on political activation, whether they desire it or not.
These people are now sprinting—not jogging, not walking, but racing—to the right. Because they blame you guys for everything that just happened.
When they see footage of Decarlos Brown stabbing a Ukrainian refugee to death, they don’t see just one demon-possessed man. They picture every university administrator, HR bureaucrat, and DEI apparatchik that ever lectured them about systemic racism, the “carceral state,” or the need to release violent crime suspects without bail in the name of social justice.
They then think back to conversations they’ve had with their cop friends—their buddy from high school who quit the force after getting tired of being called a racist, their friend at the local YMCA who vents about having to release career criminals because Soros-funded prosecutors aren’t willing to file charges—and they realize everything the left has told them over the last five years has been utter bullshit.
And they blame you. Because, even if you count yourself as a moderate Democrat, your party supported the district attorneys, city council members, and mayors that let fictitious concerns about mental health and racial justice supersede very real concerns for their family’s safety.
When these Americans see blood erupt from the side of Charlie Kirk’s neck, they don’t see just a martyred political activist. They think of every extreme leftist they’ve ever met who (1) calls anyone to the right of Hillary Clinton a fascist and (2) constantly jokes—“jokes”—about punching Nazis and “bashing the fash.”
They realize that there really do exist people who wish to see them dead for their moderately conservative political beliefs, their Christian faith, and even the color of their skin. They ask themselves if the violence visited upon Charlie might one day show up on their own doorstep.
And they blame you. Because, even if you’re just a center-of-the-road liberal, you lacked the courage to police your own ranks. You let modern-day Maoist red guards run loose across every facet of society, and what started with social-media struggle sessions has now turned to 30-06 bullet holes.
When these Americans log onto social media and see their neighbors justifying, celebrating, glorifying murder, they realize that some who walk among them are soulless ghouls at best, literally demon-possessed at worst. These people—whether they faithfully attend church every Sunday or only attend with relatives once a year, on Christmas Eve—start talking about things like spiritual warfare. They implicitly understand that no normal human casually celebrates the mortal demise of a peaceful person.
And they blame you. Because, even if you condemned Charlie Kirk’s murder, they probably haven’t seen you condemn those in your own movement who cheered it on. They view you as complicit in allowing heartless fellow travelers to celebrate death, and it repulses them.
For all of these situations, what has your response been? Nothing but bullshit.
In response to Iryna Zarutska bleeding out on the floor of a train, you post bullshit statistics about reductions in reported crime, when everyone who’s ever been to a major urban center in the last decade knows that actual crime has skyrocketed, only for victims not to waste their time reporting it to cops that don’t have the manpower to respond and prosecutors that seek to downgrade as many felonies as possible to misdemeanor citations.
In response to a 31-year-old man taking a bullet to the neck in front of his family, you post nothing but bullshit whataboutism.
> “What about January 6th?” (Honest answer: After you let Liz Cheney spend two years operating a star chamber in the House, combined with countless other failed attempts at “lawfare” against Trump, no one cares anymore.)
> “What about Mike Lee making a dumb joke on Twitter about some guy in a mask in Minnesota?” (No one outside of Utah, DC, or Twitter knows who Mike Lee even is.)
> “What about Paul Pelosi?” (That’s not comparable to Charlie Kirk getting shot, and we all know it. And, again, Paul who?)
> “What about regulations on assault rifles?” (That’s not going to get you very far when one of these killers used a knife and the other one used a common hunting rifle.)
In response to teachers, healthcare workers, and thousands of other liberals cheering on Charlie’s murder, it’s nothing but more bullshit and misdirection.
> “It’s not THAT many people celebrating!” (Yes, it is. Everyone has seen it on their Facebook and Instagram feeds.)
> “I thought you guys didn’t support cancel culture.” (We don’t cancel people over their opinions; we’re more than happy to see people lose their jobs—especially their taxpayer-funded jobs—for actively cheering on murder, though. If you can’t see the difference, that’s your own shortcoming.)
All bullshit. Not even smart bullshit, but stale, mid-grade, low-IQ bullshit. Ordinary Americans see right through it, and they don’t like how it smells.
You probably don’t like hearing this. But you need to hear it.
Because I’m right, and, as you reflect on this, you know I’m right. The ranks of my political movement gained millions of righteously angry new members this week. We have a mandate to ensure these crimes never happen again, and that’s exactly what we are now going to do.
If you want to keep a seat at the table as we do so, you’d better clean house and start policing your own.
Whatever. Kirk was killed by Kirk's ideology. Go cry somewhere
No.
Kirk was assassinated by a radicalized, failure to launch, chronically online gamer who plotted out the murder and did it.
They are funhouse mirror images of each other.

What is clear is this is a person who grew up in a right wing, rural gun culture, he got angry and shot and killed someone.
But the right is using this as a cudgel in its ongoing witch-hunt against "the other" to further elevate the straight, white, Christian male as the supreme figure in our country using communications platforms owned and controlled by billionaires using milliionaire politicians to keep the little guy down. It is authoritarian playbook 101.
And meanwhile, the US economy is crumbling, the institutions that have made this country great for the last 80 years are being dismantled and Russia and China are growing in military and economic strength while our population are being distracted with Kirk and Epstein.
Wake up people, we are about to go into some very grim times.
Exactly the guy grew up in MAGA central surrounded by guns. His alleged ‘ trans’ friend didn’t introduce him to guns. The neighbor in the vid above doesn’t seem trustworthy.
For all we know, the neighbor may want to blame the trans, too.
If the trans angle is even accurate. It doesn’t matter either way.

No.
Kirk was assassinated by a radicalized, failure to launch, chronically online gamer who plotted out the murder and did it.
Who was raised by a gun-crazed family.
Like looigi right? Oh wait, he does point blank shootings and reloads of people he doesn’t like. And didn’t grow up hunting at Gilmore.
Who TF cares what some rando on X is saying about some rando on TikTok?
Meh. He was so unappealing lthat I think the publicity is likely to just give more energy to the left to produce better and more genial influencers. I had never seen his face before this or listened to him talk. Not impressed at all.

That’s not what’s going on here nor supported by the investigation the last three days.
Wake up PP.
The radicalization that happened to Tyler was online and with whomever he was hanging out with the last few years was irrational and desensitized to killing.
Of course, we just have to filter out the insane trans preoccupation of right if we ever want to get anywhere. Their psycho sexual obsessions are an anchor.
Shall we filter out your repeated insane and fabricated trans worries posts as well?
Your obsession with it is on clear display.
Go ahead. I don’t care. Most folks are just trying to operate and participate in a society over here and it’s sort of hard with all of this far right crying about trans people or whatever other BS they’ve been brainwashed to think is attacking them. Knock yourself out, bro. We can’t help you not be afraid of your own shadow.

No one is “blaming” the roommate. I believe the only point it to narrate he wasn’t exactly a conservative
Except the right has been blaming "trans" from the outset, so yes, they will somehow blame the roommate for indoctrinating this poor white Christian male into becoming the heathen killer.
The roommate and only online friends are indeed under investigation for any role in the assassination and for not reporting it beforehand.
Link?
Huh? That’s common murder investigation procedure. And some results have been leaked here and elsewhere and in press conferences.
Kirk will be in the hands of GOD!! Crazy how so many liberals are mocking a creation of God when he created you all. Being Satans friends will not help you go through the afterlife in heaven. REPENT AND TRUST THE LORD FOR KIRKS HEAVEN!!

Tyler dropped of college, played video games for gurus a day, and became a murderer. Charlie dropped out of college, got married, had kids, and ran large scale public civil discourse speaking events.
…at which he made disparaging comments about black people and women and trolled college students in debate. Not so different from what kids see online these days.
Anonymous wrote:Each of the six sources familiar with the investigation told Axios that investigators believe Robinson had a romantic relationship with his roommate.
So investigators have known about the trans roommate/romantic partner and kept it confidential.
It also doesn't fit the right wing narrative that transgender people are violent and cheered and celebrated Kirk's shooting. Yet here is a supposed trans person who was the one to turn the shooter in. The narratives on the right still don't add up.
He’s trying to save his own skin. It’s coming out now that there is a group of 7-20 of them who knew about this and played some role. All trans and/or heavy gamers.
Agree.
I hope some social media regulations and bans come out of this.
The irony here is that Charlie Kirk used and weaponized social media radicalization, for right wing causes.
The irony here is that Charlie Kirk said some gun deaths are acceptable losses, and now he's one.
He did public speaking events and debates. He debated premises, which most Americans don’t even know what that is.
There is no irony in the death, he talked about the usual tradeoffs of risks and rights, freedoms and lack of freedoms. That’s all very foundational in America. Plotting out assassinations because you don’t like freedom of speech or an individual, is not. That’s extremism and deranged, hence prison time for Tyler & accomplices.
Well, he's dead so the rest of us can enjoy our lives without his rhetorical pollution. Folks were out and about in DC yesterday evening. It was a lovely sight .

It also makes zero sense to text the roommate what he texted him, unless the roommate already knew the plans.
There are gay and trans MAGA, you know that right? Like Nick Fuentes who this kid appeared to pay attention to.
Yes we know, this is a violence and radicalization issue.
Kirk talks even on Christianity don’t attack trans, he was supportive of all of them and forthright on his values as a Christian, conservative, patriot, constitutionalist.
