Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today.

Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943.

Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s.

Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

reposting with alt text because this feels incredibly significant. the right-wing disinfo machine means a lot of the people grieving Charlie Kirk never heard any of the things he said that would have tarnished his brand as Guy Who Just Wants to Have Dialogue Across the Aisle

I am having a hard time reconciling "Charlie Kirk was a fierce advocate of open dialogue and free expression" with "we must identify and persecute everyone who is insufficiently mournful"
After Charlie Kirk's death, teachers and professors nationwide fired or disciplined over social media posts
At least a dozen faculty and staff have faced fallout over insensitive comments online.

Ok, but he was radicalized by the Right. TPUSA is literally the Right’s college radicalization arm. He managed to go even further Right than that. How is the Left’s college campus presence to blame for this??
Duffy: You heard the family members say that this man became more political in recent years—what did he do in recent years? He went to college. That is where kids are getting radicalized. Not just online, our campuses are where a lot of radicalization, hate, and intolerance starts from.

Do you think this would be the headline if the shooter had actually turned out to be trans?

In summary:

The hateful Charlie Kirk was shot by the acolyte of a more hateful version of Charlie Kirk.

It wasn’t any of the imaginary bogeymen they were hoping for.

Just a case of them slowly drowning in their own hate.

It is pretty amazing to see people go from “the left is the enemy of democracy and must be purged” to “who can really know why good kids do bad things?”

Everyone is focusing on “Catch this, fascist”, and Ciao Bella being an anti-fascist song and reading that as literal. But these are both used in the video game Helldivers2 - which is a parody of authoritarianism. “Catch this, fascist” is satirical anti-fascism. 1/

Nancy Mace acting on disinformation that the shooter was trans: goes off on tirade against "trannies"

Nancy Mace when the actual shooter is a Christian white man: "he's just a poor lost boy, let us pray for him."

I cited actual Kirk quotes where he calls Black women less intelligent, demonizes me for being Muslim, & dehumanizes LGBTQ people—& his supporters are upset at me for “speaking evil of the dead.”

If quoting him is “speaking evil” maybe ask yourself why you followed someone who believed evil things.

“We got him!”

Really? That’s the line?

His father turned him in.

You received him.

This turned out to be optimistic!
A lot of people are going to learn a lot about Charlie Kirk tomorrow. They will read his own words and see video clips.

Then they will ask why corporate America, the NY Yankees, the mainstream press, and MAGA valorized a man who spent his life committed to hate.

This is the way
I made it a point to say, "Who?" in front of some white ppl when my boss asked had I heard about Kirk getting shot.
"Oh, yeah? What's his thing? I mean what kinda stuff did he talk about?" 😆😆😆

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life.

The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

Congratulations Gavin Newsom on reaching new lows; I did not actually think you'd say "The best way to honor Charlie's memory is to continue his work."

Time for some common sense gun laws. Democrats should introduce a bill named the Charlie Kirk common sense gun reform bill and make every Republican vote for it.
