On one hand, I fully agree with you.

On the other, I find there to be a poetic irony to people just making shit up about him.

Yeah I get it. But every time I see something like this I think of all the guys pointing at this and saying “LOOK ANOTHER LIE FROM THE LEFT” and I hate them being right about anything ever.

Do you worry about people taking things seriously?

I worry about enough people taking something seriously that it helps fascism take hold, yes.

I don't really give a shit, they're going to call us liars anyways. I shouldn't have to uphold some crazy journalistic integrity as a regular person shitposting about assholes. Fuck em, I say lie as much as we can. Smear the shit right on their faces.

My issue is that there is absolutely more than enough truth to smear them on. Why lie when we don’t have to? Why shoot ourselves in the foot like this?

They do this when we tell the truth too. Why not muddy the water with something so trivial as a CK tweet?

Because both sides-ism is not only a losing tactic for the left, it’s also dumb as fuck.

It's not both sidesing to not hold ourselve to a stupid high standard, going high got jack shit.

Also how is just straight up not lying about stupid shit a stupid high standard?!

Liberals didnt go high, their politicians LIED ABOUT A TON OF SHIT and now nobody trusts them.

"the left"

like there's only one.

Even broadly, at the far side, roughly speaking, without even dividing up across other criteria or gradations of economic "leftness", nor other quirks of specificity...

  • anarcho left. -10,-10 to -0.01,-10
  • libertarian left, e.g -10,-5 to -0.01,-5
  • moderate left, e.g. -10,0 to -0.01,0
  • tanky left. e.g -10,6 to -0.01,6
  • totalitarian left. e.g. -10,10 to -0.01,10
  • fake left. e.g around 5,5

One of these is not like the others.

... Well... the others are not like the others either...

But that does not matter to those who only speak of the fake left, as if it's not not left, as if it's the only left, calling it "the left".

It's a joke.

Completely restraining from existing because fascists will call you on any little mistake is pointless - they will make up an excuse if none is given.

People who diss Obama for tan suit yet rally behind convict deserve no power over any of our actions.

Yup, it's not on snopes, despite them having 6 pages full of Kirk-related articles.

Thats because this is a parody, presumably made around the time of the shooting, referancing when US senator Dean Browning did exactly this.

A circus act. You may have heard of him from his stage name of The Amazing Gurgling Human Foundation.

I've heard his act was a "once in a lifetime" show. And that it was "to die for".

HAAHAHA

“The amazing gurgling human foundation.”

No you're thinking of Captain Kirk. Charlie Kirk was an NFL quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons. He played college football for Michigan State and was drafted by the Washington Redskins in 2012.

No way, you're thinking of Kirk Cousins. Charlie Kirk is the guitarist from Metallica

Nah, they are thinking of Kirk Cameron the leader of the free Christian world who also has a side job as a barista at Einstein Bros throwing coffee and bagels...

I was thinking of...

I was thinking Charlie meant church, and kirk meant church,

So,

Church Church.

But I looked it up...

French and English form of Carolus, the Latin form of the Germanic name Karl, which was derived from a word meaning "man" (Proto-Germanic *karlaz). However, an alternative theory states that it is derived from the common Germanic name element *harjaz meaning "army".

So,

Man Church

Or,

Army Church.

Conservative martyrs never work out because they're so sociopathic and narcissistic as a group, that nobody really cares that much about anyone else, beyond the political benefit of the initial outrage. A martyr's power is in inspiring people in the future, but conservatives don't care enough about anyone to bother to keep their memory alive.

I've always assumed that posts that began with "as a black man" were posted by a non-black person. Trying too hard, and invading their own Internet privacy at the same time.

I'm white and was raised in the culture. I have never once heard a black person say "as a black person".

Yeah, fuck no.

Not even in an all white HOA meeting to make the point. A million other ways to say that or infer that.

Im choosing to believe there was at least one person who took this at face value, as admission that charley Kirk was a 'white passing' black man, and was racist enough to decide he was never going to listen to another word CK said because of his race.
