Ehhhhhhhhhh. It's more the picture of Charlie Kirk.
To put this in the context in which I imagine the Right would see it, they don't believe Kirk was a Nazi, that's a slur the Left uses. If someone had a picture of a drag Queen getting shot and had "Pedophile lives don't matter" (common meme on the Right is the lgbtq community are pedophiles etc) on the Left, we'd probably say they want to kill us, even though (hopefully!) none of us identify as pedophiles.
While this is true, he was an open white supremacist, so, mild nuance.
Still nuance, but mild.
No he wasnt. He was an open right wing populist. The "he was a white supremacist" comes from things he either didnt say, or from things he did say that were taken out of context. For example that thing he said about checking a black mans credentials wasnt about black men not being able to be pilots. He was having a go at left wingers who hire based around race and gender. Up to you if think he had a point on that front, but the point is, he wasnt taking about black people. He was talking about white people/companies using black people to clout chase and wash their reputations.
“There is a disturbing pattern of Blacks jumping people of all races in the urban corridors in America. That is a fact.” -Charlie Kirk
“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.” -Charlie Kirk
“CRT has spread, and now it’s time for us to remove the tumor.” -Charlie Kirk
“America does not need more visas for people from India. Perhaps no form of legal immigration has so displaced American workers as those from India. Enough already. We’re full. Let’s finally put our own people first.” -Charlie Kirk
“Jewish communities have been pushing the exact kind of hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them.” -Charlie Kirk
“You have tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions of young, fighting-age Muslim men in America. All it takes is for a couple of them to be activated in this country.” -Charlie Kirk
“The philosophical foundation of anti-whiteness has been largely financed by Jewish donors in the country.” -Charlie Kirk
“The Civil Rights Act, though, let's be clear, created a beast, and that beast has now turned into an anti-white weapon.” -Charlie Kirk
“Thank you for your courage to call it out what it is which is an outright war on white people.” -Charlie Kirk
“[Their] goal is to destroy Western civilization, get rid of anything that the white man might have been responsible for.” -Charlie Kirk
“Why are whites taking this? Why are we just sitting idly by and allowing corporate America to give all the jobs to nonwhite people?” -Charlie Kirk
“It is true that some of the largest financiers of left-wing anti-white causes have been Jewish Americans.” -Charlie Kirk
“The southern border is, of course, the great replacement. They're trying to replace us demographically. They're trying to make the country less white. They're trying to make the country more like the third world, the dumping ground of the planet is the United States southern border. And the secret is out - the rapists, the thugs, the murderers, fighting-age males, they're coming from across the world, from China, from Russia, from Middle Eastern countries, and they're coming in and they're coming in and they're coming in and they're coming in ... It is an anti-white agenda.” -Charlie Kirk
I expect a reply acknowledging he was, in fact, a white supremacist.
Lots to unpack here. Lets try the first one and see if it passes the sniff test:
“There is a disturbing pattern of Blacks jumping people of all races in the urban corridors in America. That is a fact.” -Charlie Kirk
Seems he was addressing Tucker Carlson here. Seems it comes from a leaked text message about a video in which Trump supports were beating an "Antifa kid". Carlson said something along the lines of "Thats not how white men are supposed to fight" and it caused outrage. Kirk, said the above, to point out that it was an urban thing, rather than a race thing.
This took me 2 fucking seconds to find the context by the way, you people have no fucking excuses.
Stop defending n*zis, especially dead ones. Just laugh at them like a normal person.
I wasnt defending him. I was saying hate him for who he was, not for what social media grifters tell you he was. I dont laugh at people being shot and killed. Im not a fucking ghoul. The way to defeat people like Kirk was, is and always will be with words. Not bullets. Everyone knows you dont kill the popular voice, you kill the message. If you kill the voice, you make the message immortal. And oh look, hes an inspiration now... yay...
He said "blacks", you stupid fucking nazi. Go follow your leader and skip to the end
Yeah, this is why no one likes you outside of your echo chamber.
Too much yapping, not enough suicide
Behold, the good guy...
I can be even better and do it for you
