[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Erika Kirk is creepy.  Watch a few videos of her.  There is one in which she and Charlie confer about how she is "far more conservative than he is" and she proudly proclaims to be "very far right."  She was also 5-6 years older than he was which is really atypical for their culture. [/quote]

It’s so weird the alt-right and these super religious people have this weird look in their eyes.

You can tell when somebody is just pretending from moneybecause they don’t have crazy eyes[/quote]

yep. she comes across very harsh.  
There is nothing soft, Jesus-like, submissive wife about her which is weird because that is her message but her persona says she'd cut a bi$%tch in about 5 seconds flat. 
I went down a whole Erika Kirk video rabbit trail the other night.

It’ll be interesting to see if she can continue TP. She certainly sounds as divisive as he was.

Erika Kirk vowed in a speech today to continue her husband’s movement and said that “the cries of this widow will echo around the world like a battle cry,” USA Today reports.

Said Kirk: “If you thought that my husband’s mission was powerful before, you have no idea. You have no idea what you’ve just unleashed across this entire country, and this world. You have no idea the fire you’ve ignited within this wife.”

Hmm. Sorry, gravy train will stop:
1.Her husband had some warmth and charisma, she doesn't. 
2. Also, the conservative ecosystem wants its males to lead large movements. Women influencers in the conservative sphere, of which there are many, have to fight for a much smaller slice of the pie and usually their followers are other conservative women.

This family is done for now. Maybe in the fullness of time she can marry another male influencer and carry him to success. This appears to be her talent: pushing a husband to lead. I respect that. It's no small feat.

Yes. She's the JD Vance of the pairing.  No charisma, no warmth, no likability.  Charlie had charisma in spades and just the right amount of good looks that appealed to both men and women, young people and their middle aged mothers. [/quote]

Are you...blind? Charlie Kirk was hideous, almost deformed. [/quote]

+1 His wife is beautiful, he wasn’t. His head and face were weird.[/quote]

So, we are at the place in the discussion where you are criticizing the appearance of someone brutally murdered and the "charisma" of his widow. 
DCUM never fails to disappoint in the shallowness of discussion.  [b]You people could have learned something from Charlie Kirk. [/b]

We did.  Empathy is dangerous.

Amazing that people who say this also claim to be devout Christians[/quote]

Can you paste the whole transcript, I’d like to know the whole context and how and why that response came up.

Conflating empathy for a killer for justice? 
Making excuses for someone’s bad decision?

I can be empathetic to the drugged up criminal who knifed that girl to death in then subway, AND still want him imprisoned for life. But I won’t let him go free a 15th time because I’m “empathetic.”  Don’t conflate empathy with naïveté. [/quote]

Charlie Kirk's position on empathy:

- Empathy, while often seen as a virtue, can be a tool used to manipulate emotions and push ideological agendas, particularly by the left.

- Empathy has been "hijacked" to promote policies like open borders or leniency toward crime, which he believed undermine societal order and harm society as a whole.

- Empathy should not override reason, justice, or truth, and that conservatives should prioritize principles like family, faith, and national sovereignty over emotional appeals.

- He did not entirely dismiss empathy, acknowledging it as a natural human response but urging it be tempered with discernment.
