24 Replies to “A Sober Take on the Assassination of Charlie Kirk”

    1. I like Asmongold. He’s a funny guy, doesn’t take himself too seriously, and seems to be able to articulate the things that bother us when we don’t know exactly what they are.

      Furthermore the guy took time out from his sick dad to attend to this, and I know what that takes. For him to even bother says a great deal.

      Unknown Jane said something very profound here at 9:32am:
      “This will feed off of both sides (all sides) because this is (most likely) the work of accelerationists. They will use both sides to their advantage; their goal is destruction.”

      That’s the vibe I get here. Charlie Kirk was not an important guy in the grand scheme of things. He was a blogger and commentator, not even that big of an audience compared to guys like Petersen or Rogan. That’s what makes it an attack on -me-. If the freaks will go after some medium level guy like Charlie Kirk, then that’s getting pretty close to me and my little blog that nobody reads.

      This smells like somebody wants me thinking that. It has the mark of “never let a crisis go to waste” style thinking. Like they don’t have a dog in the fight, they just want to see a dog fight.

      Otherwise known as Enemy Action. Maybe we all keep it in our pants for now and don’t give them what they want, eh?

    1. But some ‘anti-terrorist’ activity was appalling. Privacy is basically gone. Also I remember that they originally thought MAGA would turn into rebellious grassroots terrorism back before it started winning so much.
      There’s so much anti-American sentiment for those types of people, I wouldn’t take away their support groups. It’s only a subset of real troublemakers. Also that type can get a bit strangely happy to be called terrorists in their protests. There are others who prefer abuse by illegals. TDS is a real societal problem likely preferable not to martyr.
      If there’s going to be protection from local governments, it could be as simple as going back to competent and funded local police.

    1. That man is the MOST believable eyewitness I have yet heard from. Everything he says is accurate and he was literally there … in the firing line. Just steps away from Charlie and in the midst of the (my opinion) co-conspirators.

      And the old man being dragged through the portico screaming “shoot me” “shoot me” … gives off a creepy ‘Jack Ruby’ vibe. It seems the CIA almost have a sense of humor when planning assassinations.

      Who’s next? Andy Gno? ANTIFA already tried to kill him once. Ohhhhh … Nevermind, the FBI and CIA have declared that ANTIFA/TRANTIFA are just an “idea” … not a group … making their members, err non-members perfect patsy’s

      PS … a seated Charlie Kirk was a lot easier target to hit than JFK seated in a moving vehicle. Easy money for the CIA … easier than a walking, gesturing Trump.

  1. this is not some run of the mill over the top pundit being silenced. this is a political assassination along the lines of jfk and ronald reagan and donald trump who both survived.

  2. This was a reply I posted on X yesterday before the assassination. ‘This’ was the Charlotte murder narrative.

    Used to be kind of blasé with political differences but after Floyd, COVID and this? I now regard the entire left with hateful contempt. And they seem happy to announce they have not a single milligram of decency.

  3. If only it was so mundane as Team Left/Team Right or whatever team you want. The root of this is far more dark and disturbing than simple dichotomies. This will feed off of both sides (all sides) because this is (most likely) the work of accelerationists. They will use both sides to their advantage; their goal is destruction.
    Yes, they’ve used the left to their advantage, will continue to do so, but they will also use the right (and by left and right I don’t mean what we think of thus far in the normal world (although that is changing) — please keep that in mind).
    The best we can do is to harden security (and yes, that is a double edged sword) and go after these groups (which is a very, very difficult task). This is changing some things very quickly. It will be very hard to keep up with it much less get in front of it, which nobody is…we’re all playing catch up.

    Keep an eye on who/what your children/loved ones/you are talking to in the internet space; stop thinking left/right and start understanding it for what it really is: evil.
    Oh, and you’d better be prepared; it’s likely to get worse, much worse because people have not understood what they are really up against.

    1. “This will feed off of both sides (all sides) because this is (most likely) the work of accelerationists.”

      Yes. That is the distinction I’ve been looking for. Accelerationists.

      Who we will find by following the money. And, if I am not thinking too highly of #OrangeManBad and Cash Patel, it probably won’t take them that long to do it.

      CPC Conservatives, please lend your attention to this matter. Your work is cut out for you, if you have the courage to pick it up.

    1. Sorry, but Charlie Kirk was hardly a moderate.

      His willingness to engage in calm, respectful debate isn’t “moderate” it’s simply … American. We do this, because we’re simply Americans, not because we are “moderates” in our viewpoints. Charlie’s beliefs and viewpoints were anything but moderate by any standard of today. He never wavered in his Christian beliefs. They were anything but moderately lukewarm.

      If I so much as dared to express calmly, and in a free exchange of ideas, a single ONE of Charlie’s beliefs (for example abortion) openly in my town, I’d be canceled, mocked, derided, and hated. I would be publicly humiliated … for ever. My own sister in Law claimed that a cartoon I emailed to her after Al Gore’s Florida recount would/could get her FIRED from Oracle where she worked, as it mocked the recount.

      There is ZERO tolerance for anything other that the approved leftist narrative. I even get intolerance of my beliefs by certain posters here on SDA and even a site that calls itself “conservative” treehouse. Beliefs that are NO different from Charlie’s “moderate” beliefs.

      FREE SPEECH isn’t moderate in America anymore. And in fact it can get you murdered.

      1. It’s not intolerance, it’s annoyance at your obsessive and repetitive yammering about your peeves and hates.

        Let me repeat that just so you understand: it’s ANNOYANCE.

        1. So shoot me.

          By the way … every time you write your “annoyance” with my comment on the topic, you further publicize it. For that, I thank you. As they say … there’s no such thing as bad publicity.

          1. That’s a laugh. You already publicize it ad nauseam by repeating and repeating and repeating your peeves and hates over and over and over and over again, ad infinitum.

      2. Charlie KIrk was a moderate. He held strong beliefs/opinions, but his approach was dialogue. Very moderate.
        Kill Charlie Kirk, and who do you get? Nick Fuentes? Perhaps even someone worse (they are out there).
        Yes, he was a moderate comparatively speaking; people have yet to realize just how radical things could become. Thus far only the left has been really touched (likely because it was easy), but they are not and will not be the only target.

        1. Sorry, dialogue is American. That’s how we do it in the land of Free Speech.

          Charlie did not hold ANY “moderate” opinions … at all. His opinions as a confessing Christian were no different from my own. But there are plenty of people who believe THEMSELVES to be “moderate” who HATE me and my opinions … because they’re subjected to them on this platform. They aren’t really moderate … and neither was Charlie.

          1. You’re not getting it.

            He didn’t hold radical ideas, nor did he act in any radical way whatsoever.
            The people I have been talking about are far, far, far more radical (as in Nick Fuentes is the cute, cuddly derpy bunny version of them) — they will be most likely making their appeals to the right in the coming weeks/months (just as they have made appeals to the left — they don’t care for either but will use both).

            And I”m fully aware of “what we Americans do”, being one myself…thank you for your attention to this matter.

  4. I sensed something uniquely different with the 2017 congressional baseball shooting that almost took the life of Steve Scalise. The media’s reaction was borderline “Yeah, sh** happens” as if they were reporting on the weather.

    In the words of Stephen Stills – “There’s something happening here…”

  5. The Left embraces and even celebrates mental illness.

    When elected to power, like the New Zealand horse-faced prime minister or the black-faced one of Canada, the Left codifies mental illness, makes “right-wing” talk hate speech and labels conservatism as terrorism.

    The Left believes assassination is valid, Charlie Kirk brought it on himself as much as Trump did or the Israelis or the people at Charlie Hebdo or the World Trade Towers 24 years ago today. All the same in my small mind.

    Having open discourse about differences should have been a release valve, instead we see it as a mechanism for violence from the Left and only the Left.

    Don’t talk politics with strangers and don’t do it with anyone in public.
    Be polite and respectful, but be reserved.
    Again, situational awareness needs to be common.

    If you believe that violence is only justified for physical self-defence/self-preservation, then you’re not a Lefty.

  6. Opening the Overton Window.
    Demonizing ordinary citizens as “deplorable” and such things was a significant step along the road to authorizing physical violence against political opponents.
