This just reminded me that it's almost been a full year since Charlie Kirk said something racist.

    He did lean to the left, and the media stopped reporting anything he said afterwards.

    I still think it is great he got to live out his percicution fantasy before God called him home... Possibly nitro express.

    Could you imagine being this actor (Terry Kiser)?

    "We want you to play a dead guy for the entire film. The title character. You have like 10 minutes of being an alive jerk, then you just spend the rest of the movie limp. Lay on sofas and chairs a lot, lean on a few walls, get carried around, do absolutely nothing. Here's your paycheck."

    "Wow, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity as an actor to get paid to do nothing!"

    "Good news! SEQUEL!"

    The role also required a high pain tolerance, as both he and his stunt double were dropped repeatedly while filming and had to stay limp to not ruin the take. I read Kiser ended up with 3 cracked ribs and some nerve issues that took a while to heal from his neck flopping around so much. He more than earned his paycheck.

    His best known role is portraying a corpse for 2 movies. A gig's a gig!

    I thought you meant in addition to Bernie for a sec. I was about to say "talk about typecasting".

    I thought the joke was pretty blatant, but god damn, lots of woosh going on here.

    Said that COVID wasn't that big of a deal, then died of COVID. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herman_Cain_Award

    Then his twitter account continued saying covid wasn’t a big deal

    Holy moly I didn't believe you until I checked Wikipedia. Was that tweet sent by a human or was it just a scheduled tweet that became unintentionally posthumous?

    Considering there are so few black people in the GQP that they kept running his account even after that, I'd say someone made the decision to keep downplaying covid on his page and didn't care about the optics.

    Cool. The question was, did he respond?

    The joke is that Herman Cain (the tweeter) died of covid a few years ago.

    And his Twitter account kept posting antivax messages after he passed.

    This is, in fact, how normal human people talk. I am now convinced they are not engaged in a deception.

    I forgot who this loser was.

    I heard that Charlie Kirk spoke with him earlier this week!

    Is it some sort of competition who is better friends with that corpse?

    But the real question is did he respond. Can talk to a corpse all day long but I doubt it would respond with words.

    Do you think Herman Cain is smart enough to know the difference?

    They have to realize that so many of them posting that they've talked to him is having the opposite effect they intend right?

    You know Herman Cain is dead, right?

    I don't even know who herman cain is, but that makes this funnier, thanks for clarifying 🤣.

    In either case, real and currently live people are doing this.
