I'm having drinks at the The Valley Ho shortly then getting the fuck home tonight
I didn't know Turning Point USA's headquarters are here in Phoenix. My bloody feeds down here have been inundated with Charlie Kirk crap, he's a big deal in this city.

Reading this shit is so funny, shows how many of you nitpick shit from Kirk to fit your narrative that he has nazi, caused danger and indirectly harmed people. Look at the news, how many violent protests were there from the right? How many looters, how many cars were burned? This just shows the logic of the left, right people mostly lack logic and go straight to violence. Look at how many teslas were vandalized.
Shit like he’s racist, I believe his best friend was black ? I don’t know her name, that black chick. The shit about his daughter being pregnant? It just shows his logic and stance on abortion, he doesn’t care if it’s family or someone he knows, abortion is just bad in his opinion. I don’t believe what he says but whatever that’s his POV. The shit about him disregarding empathy, did you leave the part out that it was empathy from a political view that he doesn’t believe in? Empathy is just a manipulative tool politicians use to get votes. He said he believes in sympathy more. This guy was definitely not a nazi and an extreme lefty, he was far from that, his videos always allowed for respectful debate (my opinion). Comparing him to an actual terroist is wild and he’s just an easy figure head to blame for everyone.
I’m not a fan of his, but it’s always great to never jump to conclusions based on mainstream media about the guy.
Yea, nitpick part of his quotes and make your judgment about the guy, what about nitpick some good shit about him. Him as a top 100 ghoul is a wild take. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DOkqa...UzbDZ2dDBjazhv |

It’s ok if you listened to him Rev, I listened to lots of people before I figured out they were assholes and even then sometimes did just to see what they had to say cuz once in awhile even an asshole says something mildly redeeming or has an interesting perspective on something.

Factors statistically controlled included gender, race, age, income, and education.
The results of the analyses were quite pronounced. There was a significant difference between STEM workers and other workers in political identification. STEM workers were significantly more conservative than other workers. This significant difference remained even when including demographic and socioeconomic control variables. https://www.proquest.com/docview/184...s%20&%20Theses

Cheers, | Looking at that study it's mostly white males in engineering and math.
A Nature article in 2020 found that among surveyed U.S. scientists, 86% supported Democrat Joe Biden in the presidential election, while 8% supported Donald Trump.
Also according to trump smart people don't like him. Is he lying?

^He stated that if his daughter was raped he'd make her keep the child (if she was pregnant) because...abortion bad, but having to raise a child born out of a rape is OK.
These people man.

A summary of Kirk's own statements: Quote:
On race
If I see a Black pilot, I’m going to be like, boy, I hope he’s qualified.
– The Charlie Kirk Show, 23 January 2024
If you’re a WNBA, pot-smoking, Black lesbian, do you get treated better than a United States marine?
– The Charlie Kirk Show, 8 December 2022
Happening all the time in urban America, prowling Blacks go around for fun to go target white people, that’s a fact. It’s happening more and more.
– The Charlie Kirk Show, 19 May 2023
If I’m dealing with somebody in customer service who’s a moronic Black woman, I wonder is she there because of her excellence, or is she there because of affirmative action?
– The Charlie Kirk Show, 3 January 2024
If we would have said that Joy Reid and Michelle Obama and Sheila Jackson Lee and Ketanji Brown Jackson were affirmative action picks, we would have been called racists. Now they’re coming out and they’re saying it for us … You do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken really seriously. You had to go steal a white person’s slot to go be taken somewhat seriously.
– The Charlie Kirk Show, 13 July 2023
On immigration
America was at its peak when we halted immigration for 40 years and we dropped our foreign-born percentage to its lowest level ever. We should be unafraid to do that.
– The Charlie Kirk Show, 22 August 2025
The American Democrat party hates this country. They wanna see it collapse. They love it when America becomes less white.
– The Charlie Kirk Show, 20 March 2024
The great replacement strategy, which is well under way every single day in our southern border, is a strategy to replace white rural America with something different.
– The Charlie Kirk Show, 1 March 2024
| He also said the Civil Rights Act was a huge mistake and called MLK awful but he allegedly has a black friend so he's not racist and these statements don't mean anything.
And here's Charlie Kirk flashing the White Power symbol (he was an early adopter) but, nah, not a racist cause he's supposedly got a black friend.

A lot of these quotes are snippets of what he said to make it sound worse than it is. Not saying that he wasn't a POS but I hate how these things get edited down to make it sound the worst possible and they damn well know if they posted the whole quote it wouldn't sound nearly as bad.
Go look at Stephen King apologizing because he just started spewing bullshit about Kirk without fact checking anything.

We're just arguing what kind of racist he is and not whether he's racist? And which one of these quotes were taken out of context - context that makes him less racist?
Like if someone hangs out with Jeffrey Epstein a lot and draws him a birthday card that makes mention of "secrets" it's probably fair play that we have a reasonable belief that they are a child rapist and that it's just a matter of how many times said person raped children?
Here's the Baptist News Network doing their summary of Kirk's quotes with slightly larger context (in some cases). They also include an actual nice thing Kirk said. https://baptistnews.com/article/char...ce=chatgpt.com

sometimes people give the ok sign, it's all about context.
when a white nationalist group is all doing it together in a photo, shouldn't take much brains to figure what they mean by that.

Hey sdubfid, guess what, a peace sign can be inferred as a fuck you in some places too.
Amazing how a physical expression can be used in multiple ways! Wow!

They are either too dumb to see it, too racist to care, or both.
