In no manner was Charlie Kirk a Great American. He was, basically, a trolling white supremacist, anti-LGBTQ college drop-out influencer who profited from division and hate.

Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory?

Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or “continue his work.”

Lot of people yelling at me for saying celebrating assassination is no way to struggle against fascism. I’m not asking you to mourn Kirk, a fascist. I’m asking you to respect yourself. There is no righteous form of murder. Takes more courage to fight for democracy than to embrace fascism’s methods.

Unfortunately that will fly under the radar. Along with the 13 year old who was found with 23 guns and posted about his love for mass shooters.

Forgive me if I care way more about the school shooting that also took place today than I do about Charlie Kirk.
