I don't care what your politics are; at some point, as a parent, it's gotta feel disheartening and gross to have your son's murder be used by disgusting people to grift and posture.

I’m guessing they did something separately small and private for family. 

In any case, I don’t blame them for not wanting to speak in public after watching their son/sibling/friend assassinated in a large public setting.

If my funeral contains fireworks, donation requests, and people giving speeches about how much they hate other people, please take solace in knowing that I am much happier dead.


Why are you shitting on a Frank Costanza wake?

what he did for dying is probably way more impactful than creating Festivas.

So much more cathartic to air your grievances at a funeral than at Christmas time.

On Trump giving a preview of an autism prevention option, how weird is it for a president to gate keep a supposed “cure” by promising to talk about it tomorrow. Didn’t he want to help mothers who might create an autistic youth on Sunday?

And to think, people call him a conman.

“I have in this here wagon, the cure to whatever ails you….”

Yeah, they've got polling out on Charlie Kirk since the shooting.  Turns out most young people hated his ass and it was only the 65+ boomer age demo who had a positive view on him.  Surprise fucking surprise.  Only a quarter of the people polled were very familiar with him.  Most hardly knew anything about him and didn't give a shit.

Also, on a side note, Trump is underwater bigly across the board in this poll.  

 

  

Awesome. That'll stop the daily assaults on the Constitution.

For all the squawking about how Kirk and TPUSA revolutionized (or some shit) the youth vote, in the interview with your Governor GCN, they shifted 13% of the white male under 25 vote.

While that is certainly statistically and electorally significant, in the grand scheme, shows that Kirk's popularity and influence in that demo isn't as overwhelming as it has been made to seem.

I think the reason olds like him, in addition to just liking everything MAGA, is that they suspect that they're old, out of touch, and wrong, but ol' Chuck gave em a youth voice that countered their suspicion, just like blacks and latinos for Trump assuage the nagging feeling that they're being racists.

Plus, the olds are more likely to only see the sanitized versions of Charlie that don't include all his greatest hits of being a giant piece of shit.  

Not to get all conspiracy theory and whatnot, but this is one of the reasons a lone leftist gunman kinda struck me as odd to be the killer.  Why the fuck would a leftist/transgender adjacent person kill Charlie?  He's one of a zillion of right-wing grifter fucks.  In fact, he was one of the dumbest ones that routinely got his ass handed to him and made himself and Trump/MAGA look like fools.  The only reason Kirk had any sway whatsoever was because he was backed by billionaire money.  Nobody gave a fuck about this guy.  Except for some loony tunes people even further right than him and maybe some interested dark money donors, of course.

Here's the thing that just doesn't work for all the "CHARLIE KIRK WAS NOT A RACIST!!!" folks: if Charlie wasn't a racist/white supremacist....why do all the white supremacists and racists love him so much?

Rallies after his death had people chanting "white power."

That MAGA rapper dude, immediately after Kirk's death, put out a song literally extolling the virtues of lynching.  Dude was at Kirk's memorial, commanded an audience outside.

 

Maybe YOU don't think that Kirk was a white supremacist....but all the white supremacists sure do.  So....yeah.  He was a bad person who thought and sold bad ideas that were rooted in and fed white supremacy.  If that's the movement you want to associate yourself with so passionately, if you are happy to be on team "hang 'em up high at sundown" and think “we ought to do it like they did it way back in the day because grandaddy’s way works best,” referring to getting a "tall tree and a sort rope," then just fucking own it already.

Being a racist isn't a matter of popular opinion. Especially when "half the country" are pretty avowed racists themselves.

Biden said he thought of Robert Byrd (former KKK member) as a mentor. Among other things….

Kamala literally used his past comments against him in her campaign so I don’t really wanna hear all this shit.
