Right-Wing Extremists/Nazis Attempt to Make Charlie Kirk a Martyr and a Saint
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart
I proudly admit to being a pacifist. For men and women of
average intelligence, there is never justification for acts of violence.
When right-wing extremist, Charlie Kirk, was assassinated, I
denounced it and knew that this was an action based on hate. Hate creates more
hate and is an act of pure stupidity.
Nazis among us would like you to believe that Kirk was a
hero, a saint, and a martyr. This is far from the truth. He encouraged hatred
and violence while spreading fascist message to his supporters.
Here are a few of his opinions related to race, debate,
gender, feminism, reproductive rights, gun violence, immigration, Islam, and
religion.
“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 20
“If we would have said that Joy Reid and Michelle Obama and
Sheila Jackson Lee and Ketanji Brown Jackson were affirmative action picks, we
would have been called racists. Now they’re coming out and they’re saying it
for us … You do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken
really seriously. You had to go steal a white person’s slot to go be taken
somewhat seriously.” The Charlie Kirk Show, 13 July 2023
“We record all of it so that we put [it] on the internet so
people can see these ideas collide. When people stop talking, that’s when you
get violence. That’s when civil war happens, because you start to think the
other side is so evil, and they lose their humanity.
Kirk discussing his work in an undated clip that circulated
on X after his killing.” “Prove me wrong.”
“The answer is yes, the baby would be delivered.” Responding
to a question about whether he would support his 10-year-old daughter aborting
a pregnancy conceived because of rape on the debate show Surrounded, published
on 8 September 2024
“We need to have a Nuremberg-style trial for every
gender-affirming clinic doctor. We need it immediately.” The Charlie Kirk Show
“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
“The American Democrat party hates this country. They wanna
see it collapse. They love it when America becomes less white.” The Charlie
Kirk Show, 20 March 2024
“The great replacement strategy, which is well under way
every single day in our southern border, is a strategy to replace white rural
America with something different.” The Charlie Kirk Show, 1 March 2024
“We’ve been warning about the rise of Islam on the show, to
great amount of backlash. We don’t care, that’s what we do here. And we said
that Islam is not compatible with western civilization.” The Charlie Kirk Show,
24 June 2025
“There is no separation of church and state. It’s a
fabrication, it’s a fiction, it’s not in the constitution. It’s made up by
secular humanists.” The Charlie Kirk
Show, 6 July 2022
Although I disagree with everything Kirk expressed to his
followers, I do believe in the Constitution and his First Amendment right.
However, he was no “saint,” and certainly not a patriotic
American or a martyr. Trump and his fascist party believe that my America is
opposed to racism, bigotry, and an authoritarian government. They would be
right.
