Kirk’s message is that we are all sinners in need of a Savior. You don’t need to agree. You just need to love this country as much as liberals used to—and make room for everyone to express whatever opinion they want and deal with their own social consequences. Freedom of speech means your government cannot jail you or punish you. Doesn’t mean you are guaranteed employment if your choose to express views that costs your employer sponsors or—in Kimmels case—expresses disdain for roughly half of the U.S. population when your show is supposed to attract viewers so that your sponsors make money.
Kimmel thought he was too big to worry about any of that.
He was wrong.

Is this why Kirk devoted so much energy to upping the consequences for college professors that he disagreed with? I'm sorry, but the idea that Kirk is a free speech martyr is offensive to the concept of freedom of expression.


Granted I didn’t know who this Charlie Kirk person was a week ago, but I’ve now had a lot of exposure to him. He wasn’t going after professors just because they were liberal. He wasn’t going after professors who were unfairly biased against conservative students, and also professors who refused to engage with anyone who didn’t share their liberal beliefs.

Or at least that’s my understanding. If you have a clip or writing from him suggesting he wanted “consequences” against professors simply for being liberal (which would be pretty much all professors), please share!

On the off chance that you are truly asking for clarity, this was not what was said or HOW it was said at all. It’s the disdain and callousness of his framing with the setup of “new lows” in “desperately trying to characterize” the killer as non-MAGA and the heavy implication that actual grieving was performative.
I fully believe this is his true opinion and he is free to express it.
I also find it unconscionably insensitive, gross, and insulting to those of us who are mourning. And I don’t blame his employer not wanting to be associated with appalling sentiments like that.
A man you don’t like was murdered. Murdered.
Something is wrong with you if you can’t understand why “MAGA” would be grieved by this. But more importantly, you display a lack of humanity when you mock it.

You are correct - MAGA is saying the killer is not MAGA. But the way Jimmy said it, it implied that the killer IS MAGA and that MAGA people know this and are just liars.

And I guess the MAGA people took that personally.

This, as yet another example of firing behavior this week, should scare the $#!++ out of everyone. It should really affect everyone that comedians, news outlets, pundits, teachers, nurses, corporate workers are losing their jobs. It should scare you to death that people are being kidnapped in courthouses, at work, and on the street. It should scare you that research is being pulled and replaced, that history of slavery is being tossed out.

WHAT ELSE DO YOU NEED to fully understand what is happening here?

But this isnt even about Kirk. Trump is calling for Fallon and Seth to be next via Truth Social, just because he doesn’t like them.

It’s ridiculous. I’ve never heard of the guy before last week. He seems like a right ass. Don’t think what happened to him was good. But it certainly happened to enough children and he was not against the possibility of it happening to anyone so I’m not sure why we’re all upset about it. He literally got what he asked for.





I abhor violence, especially gun violence. I do not condone him being shot in anyway, nor do I celebrate it.

Right now they have the right to watch or not watch anything.

By 2028 Trump will be telling them how to breathe the morons

Funny you didn’t have an issue when the Democrats were dictating to Twitter and Facebook execs what content they needed to remove due to “misinformation”—but when a tv host says something abhorrent and mocks the grief of people with whom he disagrees politically and angers the show’s stakeholders who demand that his employers take a stand—that’s racist?? Oooookay.


Like Hillary is a Lizard person holding pedo meetings at comet ping pong? You know, the ones she invited people to via codes in a risotto recipe?

Everyone hated Kimmel. His ratings tanked years ago. Disney did everyone a favor.

^should says facist not racist.
Though I’m guessing somehow Kimmel supporters would make a case for it being both if they could.
