This may explain why there’s an aggressive response to people who merely post Kirk’s own words. It threatens the existence of the alternate Kirk - the motivational speaker that had been marketed to young kids and white Christian groups through selective quotation & clips.

#LucyConnolly thinks she was a political prisoner. What does that make the heroic pensioners physically picked up and dumped in jail for an entirely peaceful protest during which they didn't threaten anyone?
It's simple, if you throw paint on a plane then you get proscribed and any 80 year olds defending you get arrested.
If you ask people to burn down hotels, and they try, you get an interview in the Telegraph and positive coverage in the BBC.
That's sensible, proportionate policing.
