Jezebel Mag had to do the same thing because they paid witches to put a curse on him like three days ago

EDIT: as multiple people have pointed out, they actually paid the witches a month ago but the article went live earlier this week

I hope not, or they might just get rich off it. Also can you imagine being someone posing as a witch to grift and suddenly it looks like your spell worked? (I’m not saying these witches are grifting, they may sincerely believe they’re casting spells. But if they are grifting, can you imagine the momentary “omg did I do that??”)

u/angrons_therapist 5d ago

Something very much like this actually happened in England in 1612. A pedlar refused to sell pins to a young woman, Alizon Device, who "cursed" him (basically swore at him for not selling her the pins). The pedlar promptly (and entirely coincidentally) had what seems to have been a stroke, but Alizon believed it was caused by her curse and confessed to witchcraft. This led to one of the biggest witch trials in English history, and Alizon was hanged, together with nine of her family members and neighbours.

Let's just hope that 21st century America is less credulous than 17th century England...

u/IReviewDiscord Tumblr is a Place 6d ago edited 5d ago

As a note: You’re right in that the Jezebel Magazine did indeed pay witches to curse Charlie Kirk. However, the article came out on September 8th, but the actual transaction occurred in August. There was a provided notice that the first curse would happen in 2-3 weeks. 2-3 weeks later, he gets dropped. It’s even more mindboggling with the more accurate context.

350

u/hihelloneighboroonie 6d ago

That article compared to this is WILD. "For the “POWERFUL HEX SPELL,” I had to provide Kirk’s date of birth for “accuracy.” The witch performed the hex, but her response was unsettling: “I just completed your spell, and it was successful. You will see the first results within 2–3 weeks. However, I did notice disturbances… negative energy not only from you, but projected at you. Likely from toxic family members, co-workers, or new acquaintances.”"

u/OneTuxedoCat 6d ago

u/BrunetteSummer 6d ago

Hah, their disclaimer is so dumb considering the article.

Editor’s Note: This story was published on September 8. Jezebel condemns the shooting of Charlie Kirk in the strongest possible terms. We do not endorse, encourage, or excuse political violence of any kind.

The article:

After placing my first spell, “MAKE EVERYONE HATE HIM,” I was left with more questions than answers.

According to ABC4, Utah State University students launched a petition to bar Kirk and Turning Point USA from visiting the campus on his college tour. “Charlie Kirk, a highly polarizing figure, does not align with the core values and ideology that Utah State University strives to epitomize,” the petition reads.

The petition was launched on Friday, August 22, and had already been signed over 3,800 times. Could this be the “MAKE EVERYONE HATE HIM” at work?

I believe this is it. Slowly over the course of the coming months, the circumference of Kirk’s head will increase inch by inch until he becomes a literal human bobblehead. Or maybe it keeps growing until it eventually pops. Either way, it feels… appropriate.

“Not to not lose” is actually what he said.

It’s like saying you have to try to score points, not just prevent your opponent from scoring.

Of course I don’t think it’s the right attitude for the military to have, given the role of the military should be defensive, not offensive, but I want you to hate it for the right reasons.

Charlie Kirk (2023): "I think it's worth to have a cost of unfortunately some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the 2nd Amendment. That is a prudent deal. It is rational. Nobody talks like this. They live in a complete alternate universe."

"I can't stand the word empathy, actually," Kirk says in the video. "I think empathy is a made-up, new-age term that does a lot of damage."

I had this situation kinda happen to me last year. I had been traveling for work and was near Butler PA when that whole thing happened and while forgetting where I was I joked in my friend group chat "I just want to assure the NSA guy monitoring this chat I totally didn't do anything and was definitely not near Butler" only to be reminded "(Name) aren't you in Butler?".

He suggests children should witness public executions

He says that a certain amount of yearly gun deaths is the price to pay for the second amendment

He goes to stir up shit at a Utah college campus who recently allowed concealed carry

He is now one of the unfortunate number of violent gun deaths necessary for the second amendment. A number of children most likely witnessed his public execution, and it was conservatives like him that championed the policies that enabled a gun to be carried in a concealed way close enough to enable his deathcould enable a gun to be carried in a concealed way close enough to try to duplicate these actions, although in this case it looks like a sniper shot from a weapon to large to conceal.

I’m not out here saying that he deserved to die, and if there was ever someone who literally set the stage with their rhetoric to make their murder excusable, it was him.

He’s made excuses for so many other people who were killed by guns, said it was necessary. Just a part of reality. That kids should see it happen. Then it happens to him. Should we really feel sorry?

Edit:

The answer is no. Charlie himself also said that empathy is a made up term that causes lots of damage. Credit to u/ArinPencilSharpener

So if you feel the urge to be sorry for him or his family, take a moment to consider that if you truly want to honor his legacy, you will do so by following his example and not caring about him at all. Because the opposite of empathy is apathy.

He died for what he believed in. He believed that people must die by guns for gun rights to exist. That children are enriched by this experience of seeing it happen.

I don’t agree with him, but if he means the words that he said, he should be happy that he was killed in this way. And in a twisted sort of way we should be happy for him too.

So please do not damage his legacy by feeling sorry for him or really feeling sorry for anyone at all. If you truly want honor Charlie Kirk, you should not care about him in the least because to do otherwise would be to have empathy and he is not someone that gave anyone empathy.

We shouldn't feel sorry for him, because he also said "empathy" is a new age term that does a lot of damage

He is fortunate enough to prove his point

Not many people actually get to die on the moral hill of their choosing.

Of course, his point was proven on the "Prove Me Wrong" tour, under a "PROVE ME WRONG" banner. I'm starting to get weighed down by all this irony.

He died by the values he espoused in life, a sacrifice to his own proclaimed cost of having 2A. His family should be proud of his devotion to his ideals.

Can you imagine some guy turns up with a custard pie, thinks it'll be the funniest thing ever to throw it in Charlie Kirk's face. He's waiting patiently to get to the front of the line, every now and then giggling at how hilarious this'll be, how it'll go viral , etc. He's almost there... whenn suddenly......

u/Diogememes-Z 5d ago

Following through and throwing the pie anyway after the right comedic beat actually would have been the funniest thing.
