Let's remember Charlie Kirk for who he was.

Charlie's not even cold and Turning Point has already gone to hell with it's DEI, woke, hire.

NGL I wasn't sure from this picture if I was looking at Pam Bondi, Karoline Leavitt or someone else. All these standard-issue MAGA-Barbie appearances are starting to blend together in my mind...

Conservative men have a type

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago

Apparently it's called, "Mar-a-Lago face" and it also applies to men.

MAGA women always have the weirdest hair. It looks fake like it's a wig.

[–] cdnwaffleiron@lemmy.ca 29 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Is she allowed to speak without his permission???

"I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearls or expensive clothes, but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God. A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet."

He also said that they should cover their hair.

[–] kokesh@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

He allowed it from ~~heaven~~ hell

[–] UltraMagnus0001@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

Her face is big too

Charlie Kirk said that his wife was more extreme in her views than him, and had moved his opinions further to the right. So this'll be fun.

"Look at me, look at me. I'm the head of the nazi organization 'turning point' now!"

That was fast. Guess they didn't have another nazi lined up for the spot.

[–] ValarieLenin@midwest.social 10 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Why do they need to beg big sky daddy to let Charlie in? Thought he was already a Christian, why do his followers feel the need to pray that big sky daddy let's him in.

[–] DreamAccountant@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

What religious people say they believe, vs what they actually believe is extremely different.

If it wasn't they'd've all found a way to heaven by now. You know, through the righteous causes of christian nazis. Like: Shooting up schools, bars, nightclubs, concerts, stores, etc...

[–] RaoulDuke85@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Isn’t that why they want the rapture to come? They believe the gates of heaven are closed until then.

[–] OldChicoAle@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

She looks lifeless like that Megan robot thing. When she started to cry at the memorial, I thought she might short circuit.

[–] III@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Hey now, it's hard to force yourself to cry when you have no emotional attachment to the events at hand. Give her a break.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

I actually think they might make an exception for her because she seems hateful enough to be given a pass. I hope not though. I hope this leads to the floundering of that fascist organization.

[–] Furbag@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

She's got that mar-a-lago face alright.

[–] Jaysyn@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Rules for thee, not for me is the very core of GOP ideology.

[–] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Good for her, finally fighting back against the patriarchy! It's good to see her "go woke", like that.

[–] IndridCold@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

She's just another woke DEI hire.

[–] UnmetPlayer@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Hired for her long neck

[–] Bristlecone@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You know this actually will be kind of a funny social experiment to see how those misogynists react to a woman being in charge. I think it will take steam out of the movement behind them that is inherently misogynist

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Nope, they know a pick me when they see one. These woman embolden them by saying what they want to hear. This is how they grow their movement and also test the waters for the first women president.

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Named by whom? Is there a board? Wasn't it just his private company and therefore is now hers, or I guess their kids in a trust maybe?

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

It's a non-profit, which I believe always means incorporation, but not necessarily a board. In any case, you'd be an idiot to run such an outfit as a sole proprietor, both for tax and legal concerns.

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

I guess black eyes and unending pregnancy is for other women.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago

Great way of honoring his memory.

They should install a generator to his grave because it's probably spinning so fast it could power a small town.

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

grifters gonna grift

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I thought Trump unilaterally appointed himself leader of the company?

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

Official confirmation that she doesn't deserve any tots and pears.

[–] YesButActuallyMaybe@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago
[–] BigMacHole@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 week ago

This is AGAINST Charlie's Wishes which makes her a TERRORISTS!
