Here’s Kirk, in his own words. Many of his comments were documented by Media Matters for America, a progressive non-profit that tracks conservative media.

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

On gun violence I think it’s worth it to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the second amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational. – Event organized by TPUSA Faith, the religious arm of Kirk’s conservative group Turning Point USA, on 5 April 2023

    I didn’t think Charlie Kirk could change however he hasn’t said anything racist this past year.

    Agreed, just wanted to remind folks of some of the horrible things he stood for as streets, and public parks, etc are being renamed in his honor.

    I find it funny how this piece of shit got immortalized in deep fake TikToks for eternity.

    Dont let this distract from the fact that Israel killed him for criticizing them.

    He was a shithead knuckledragger, but also a casualty of our fascist overlords

    This is so true. How often do you think about Rush Limbaugh, anymore?

    Charlie Kirk stood for the kind of world where gun violence was an acceptable consequence of maintaining everyone's 2nd amendment rights.

    He died for what he believed in.

    So? Who's next?

    These animals should be afraid to show their face in public. The right is gun-ho, are you?

    Charlie Kirk was political the same way the Ku Klux Klan is political.

    Yup, he was a giant, fascist piece of shit.

    So, of course the GOP wants to put a statue of him up in Washington

    And now his message is amplified.

    All these news articles. We read them and feel disgusted but there are just as many people reading this that probably agree and now they will feel more emboldened.

    I am seriously impressed that The Guardian had the balls to post an entire article quoting this piece of shit, highlighting how much a piece of shit he truly was.

    Truly a based response to his assassination and the real-time revisionist history being peddled not just by those on the right, but by mainstream center-left politicians and journalists.
