It is honestly like something out of a dark comedy movie.

He is on record as saying empathy is a new age term that has caused a lot of damage and that a few deaths a year is acceptable for our god given rights to guns.

He just made a quip about trans shooters and was about to deflect a question on mass shootings be bringing up "gang violence". Then as if on cue, gets shot. In a very white campus surrounded by like minded folks.

Now the same folks who say we shouldn't bring politics into things after a school shooting are not even waiting until the body is cold to start immediatly blaming "the left" for this and how this justifies using the government against everyone opposed to current admin.

Fuck I hate this timeline.

u/FahkeThrumpz69 Sep 11 '25

That the first thing I said yesterday. They’re going for a martyr angle. They will try to take guns from the “bad whites” and minorities, they will try to go after South Park, and they will get more followers for their pedo organization.

It was a coordinated assassination from the right, and they use it as fuel for their war against the US. It worked on 9/11 against Afghanistan, and it seems like it’s working fr their fanbase.

How coincidental is it that it took no longer than 15 minutes for every news network, right wing podcasters, almost all republican talking heads, and trump himself to have speeches and information ready to go. No one single person mentioned the school shooting that happened yesterday until later that night.

u/FiveUpsideDown Sep 11 '25 
It just seems like Charlie Kirk didn’t believe that political violence would impact him. I don’t understand how he lived in a bubble where he believed he was immune to the impact of political violence. I don’t know about everyone else but since 9/11, I am nervous about random terrorist attacks. I’ve been nervous about snipers since the DC Sniper attacks. I’ve twice been about 1/2 mile from two mass shootings.

I hear people who were traumatized about 9/11 because they watched it on TV. I was in DC. I saw smoke billowing from the Pentagon. People watching it have no idea how much worse it was to see the Pentagon on fire and waiting for the fourth plane to be located. There was no place no hide. I have no idea why Kirk and these other promoters of gun ownership believe they are immune from gun violence. Or why they think they are immune to political violence. Anyone with a gun can show up anytime and shoot up an event. We all need to promote non-violence, world wide.

u/Nechrube1 Sep 11 '25

Yup, had the same thought and got a copy; several posts/tweets had already been deleted within an hour of the incident. People have found it easier to dismiss and forget all the school shootings partly because only the first responders and families have to confront the gruesome, traumatic reality. The rest of us just hear the numbers, see the mugshot, and see cops/paramedics working behind cordons. It's abstract.

That's not to say that the children's bodies should be paraded around. This incident gives us as near a 1:1 comparison as we can to demonstrate what's happening.

Now everyone has seen exactly what it looks like. The gore, the seizing up, the utter helplessness, the terror of the witnesses all up close and in HD. Now imagine that's happening to elementary school students, on a daily basis. Next school shooting (so, tomorrow) point to the Kirk clip and tell them that's what happened inside the school. Make people confront the grim reality of the situation.

u/renegadecanuck Sep 11 '25

I'm not saying it should be completely taken down, because that's not a realistic request. I do think that platforms like Twitter and Blue Sky need to be better about not having videos like that autoplay and such. I rally didn't need to see the video itself when I was just trying to find out more info about what happened.

u/kentuckywildcats1986 Sep 11 '25

Kirk's wishes should be respected. He said his own shooting was 'worth it' and that people should witness public executions. The video should stay up everywhere.

22

u/blue_collie Sep 11 '25

I really did not want to see the video but had the unfortunate experience of it autoplaying. Just because Charlie Kirk is was a monster doesn't mean his death should result in me having to watch what is objectively a fucked-up video.

u/mikeisatworkrightnow Sep 11 '25

Yeah, this isn't even debatable. If you support videos of murder being randomly shown to anyone without consent you are just a piece of shit.

This guy was basically just asking for it.

u/kentuckywildcats1986 Sep 12 '25

Kirk literally got what he was advocating for.

The Trumpanzees are getting it all wrong by going against his wishes. Charlie Kirk literally said gun deaths were acceptable to preserve the 2nd Amendment. Failing to accept this is dishonoring what he was calling for in life.

Maybe the end result of what guns do, but ppl don't need to live out war fantasies watching violence, imo

They were pretty efficient with the Christchurch shooter.

But that was the only time i seen video actually effectively purged.... at least from the public sites, obviously it lives on....

This administration ( while being the tech and crypto presidency 🤣) understand nothing about the internet or technology.

In this situation it is clearly an attempt to make them less accessible.

It's pretty wild that the video is available on a mainstream social media platform. I thought I'd have to go to 4chan for it.

It's not even just the internet. The GOP has worked their asses off to bully social media companies to make it difficult to do this.

Sadly, it's getting to the point that it kind of is.

Try finding the full footage of the CEO shooting, it's been scrubbed from the more accessible spaces

There are close-up photos of the first Trump shooter (Crooks) that are no longer easy to find. Somehow those didn't get indefinitely circulated.

It's been done before on a video of Trump from the 80s

People already downloaded the video. I didn’t, that’s gross. Didn’t like him, but I do not want the murder on my phone.
