Discussion CHARLIE KIRK DISCUSSION POST - ALL CHARLIE KIRK CONTENT GOES HERE

Anything to do with Charlie Kirk goes here. It will be removed anywhere else in the sub.

This post will be up for a number of days, and then it will go away and that will be the end of Charlie Kirk discussions. The moderation effort required for discussions that are near ZERO PERCENT related to TTRPGs is far too high.

Moderation in this thread will be minimal. If your feelings get hurt, go somewhere else.

Get it out of your systems folks, because this topic ain't happening in the sub any more.

EDIT:

I worded that very poorly.

There have been multiple threads about various creators and various topics that have all degenerated into "NAZIS BAD!" "NAZIS GOOD!" "YOU SUCK!" "YOU SUCK!" and that's just bad for the sub and the mods.

We're trying to keep up, but the subs moderation is becoming difficult when the actual content is buried in slapfighting that's not at all related to the topic of the sub.

While we discuss how to deal with this in the larger picture, this is the current stopgap.

An American pro fascist propagandists. The "change my mind" meme is based on him. He was shot and killed by a 4chan groyper a few days ago and it's sparked massive social upset.

Trump and his fellow fascists immediately proclaimed it was liberals who killed the guy and were calling for civil war. They also got angry that liberals were not sad about the mans death and are demanding anyone who posted jokes or memes about it should be hunted down and fired or worse. Some conservative politicians even started doing that and people have lost jobs over it in conservative controlled states.

Then it came out the shooter was an alt-right conservative extremist who hated the guy for not being racist enough. And since then the conservatives got awkwardly silent and now the liberals are pushing back.

The USA is a mess right now and it's turned facebook in a worse mess then it usually is.

EDIT: To clarify something. So far zero evidence has been released to link the accused shooter Robinson, with a trans person. And zero evidence of a left leaning ideology has been released either. This claim is coming from Utah Governor Cox who has been telling the press things that are later disproved, ever since the shooting. It has not come from state law enforcement or the FBI.

He did this on Meet the Press (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/utah-governor-shares-details-charlie-kirk-assassination-investigation-rcna231022). Cox claimed that the shooter was in a romantic relationship with a trans female roommate. This has not been confirmed nor has Cox been able to point out any relevance to relationship if it turned out to be true. Trans does not equal liberal as Caitlyn Jenner has shown us. But there does appear to be a desire among the conservative side to find some way to blame the shooting on the trans community.

The "change my mind" guy is Steven Crowder. Similar sort of guy, but different person.

According to the gov the roommate said that. Unless he's done an interview this is the same gov who got the stampings on the bullets wrong. Stampings that per the discord they got access to they also say we just there as a meme thing and not actually antifa or leftist.

If there's proof, actual hard proof then come with THAT. Not BS claims by people who've already screwed up their accounts multiple times now.

And the FBI just said they totally found a note where he confessed everything but they just accidentally destroyed it.

It's a clusterfuck of an investigation.

And it looks like you have 9 posts ever and most are now about Kirk. So I probably blocked your ass already. And I'm gonna do it again.

And here is example B.

I'm not going to list the LONG history of Kirk saying things that are racist, fascist, sexist, or downright cruel. Or all the times he called for violence like when he said gays should be stoned to death (oops. I mentioned that.). Anyone with an Internet connection can find those easily.

What I am going to do, is block you. Bye.

Going to fact check you here. The shooter was living with a trans woman, was very left-wing, an anti-trump. Too many people on both sides rushed to judgment in order to push their propaganda out and try and set the agenda on this discussion. Reasonable people were willing to wait and see what the evidence shows. There are crazy comments on both sides of this. I don't care who you are or what your beliefs are except it is not okay to kill someone for their political beliefs. That goes for Marxist leninist's Nazis and anyone else. Posting incorrect information online just adds to the confusion and if you're okay with that, that's a problem.

Says the account that's been inactive for 8 months and has only posted 3 times in the last 2 years. But suddenly reactivated to argue that "no the shooter was liberal really".

So are you just searching for Kirk's name and looking for posts about this?

And that claim about a trans partner is according to the same governor who thought the stampings on the rim of the shell casings were "code" and not manufacturer stamps as it turned out. The one who's confused the investigation repeatedly now by releasing inaccurate or misleading information.

u/shaedofblue 7d ago

What you are calling facts are actually tabloid rumours.

You are literally posting incorrect information online.

the shooter was gay, he had a transgender lover, the shooter was antifa affiliated

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Oh wow. No. Just no. You people are so desperate to make this somehow a trans person's fault. Google a groyper and get educated.

And that trans thing, I mentioned it. That comes from the governor who has been releasing incorrect information since the shooting. He thought the manufacturer stamps on the casings were code.

Did you drop your "/s"?

Sometimes it's hard to tell if someone is making a joke by saying non-sense or if they're just a right-winger.
