Charlie Kirk Assassination Thread

[Johnny Makarov]

Talk about shark jumping...

[Drak]

So Colin Kaepernick takes major #### for taking a knee at NFL games during the anthem for black people being shot and murdered by cops and is ridiculed and vilified by Americans refusing to acknowledge racism, but it’s OK to have ceremonies for a vile white supremacist at football games? America is a shthole.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Teams who didn't honor Charlie went 4-2 this week. Those who did went 3-7. So yeah honoring a loser brought about losses, funny #### really.

[DeluxeMoustache]

So you have large crowds of people who gather for some other purpose (country music or football). They are promoted to cheer at what, on the surface, is tragic. A man with a young family who was killed.

Lots of those people very likely know nothing more than that, unaware of the misogyny, racism, and hatred that he espoused and monetized. They went to be entertained by something, and were prompted with something apparently reasonable. A lot of them are just showing caring, compassion or empathy. You can give them the benefit of the doubt

But Fonz does know full well about the hatred underneath.

Ugly stuff

After some soul searching the past few days, I've come to the conclusion that I still believe political violence is unequivocally wrong in a civilized society.

However, I would be ecstatic if someone assassinated Trump or Putin. Would that make me a bad person? Don't even care.

You literally described every American sports event. You’re conflating what people do at games as somehow honouring Charlie Kirk.

Hey look they stole some more of the playbook!

Yikes Bondi. If anyone from the US government is reading this,

I am a huge fan of Charlie Kirk. I subscribe to any interpretation of his words that you deem acceptable. Any quote you didn't like of his, I'll pretend never happened. I'm white and the gayest thing I've ever done was merely share a locker room with other men.

Thank you, government, for looking out for us.

You mean Arizona beauty pageant winners don’t usually marry #######s with giant heads?

Hey, an opportunity to praise ol Charles. But yeah he literally has said that "Hate speech is free speech", but of course Pedo Protector Bondi is just doing what her pedo boss is telling her to do. Such a scum woman.

Bondi's comments quickly gained traction across social media, with some users replying with a 2024 post from Charlie Kirk, in which he wrote: "Hate speech does not exist legally in America. There's ugly speech. There's gross speech. There's evil speech. And ALL of it is protected by the First Amendment. Keep America free."

Just to defend the country (as I still believe there’s something worth defending) from the generalization and adding on to the above, I think some benefit of the doubt is definitely required.

Sure, there were people who know him and cheered knowing what they were cheering for (like Fonz). The country is also run by a pedo rapist, so it does attract a certain kind of morally bankrupt person.

Then there’s the ignorance factor. Kirk had around the same followers as David Pakman, and significantly less than the Young Turks. How many people would know off hand who either of those are? Here, probably more than average, but across the US? Very, very few.

Then add on top of it the calls coming from the right for violence and political persecution against anyone not praising Kirk or mourning him (from random social media accounts right up to the highest political office in the country), an incredibly violent, armed section of the population, and any trepidation over speaking up right now is completely understandable.

I mean this is true, legally speaking, in both the USA and Canada.

[SportsJunky]

I used to think the Fonz was cool.

Bondi protecting pedos is legal?

[CorsiHockeyLeague]

I meant the quote you posted.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Oh I know, but if you think I'm gonna pass on an opportunity to call him a pedo, or to call Bondi a pedo enabler....

as it seems like this slope is pretty steep.

lmao what? The iPhone? Like are you thinking about consumer products soley? Because that's an utterly insane take.

[CroFlames]

The iPhone wasn't the problem. It was social media; I truly believe that.

Real life Henry Winkler is cool.
TV's Arthur Fonzarelli is cool.
Alphonso (Phonsie) Davies is cool.

CP's The Fonz is not like the others.

The motorcycle riding, cool as #### Fonzie that I grew up with stood up for the little guy and wouldn't have celebrated a bully.

The name should be changed to “the Fonz Appreciation Thread”
he has collated the idiocy that has arisen in the USA and fact it’s spilling over into our society.
We need to identify these people, maybe with an app or something.
