Political Memes

Couldn't have happened to a bigger piece of shit.

Now we just gotta keep the ball rolling and erase the lifetime achievements of everyone else on the Far Right.

Very inspirational tweet. Thanks for the pick-me-up, OP.

oof ouch muh gun rights

He was a joke way before that

Wait why is it sinister and demoralizing? I find it a laugh. Also he’s been fucking canonized by the other side so cry me a damn river.

What this guy is missing is that, prior to Kirk's death, no one outside a very small circle of campus conservatives gave a shit about him. He was that random dude who featured in those TPUSA memes about "if you're so x, why don't you y".

And now everybody's talking about him.

It's not just leftist mockery that's turned up to 11. I live in a college town. I see posters advertising TPUSA and College Republican meetings all the time. Campus chaplains are still opening Sunday sermons with moments of silence for Charlie. The fucking recruiters are using Kirk to convince kids to enlist.

Conservative college students used to stay quiet. Now they're loud and proud - even louder and louder than the liberal students - and it's because of Kirk.

And of course conservatives are going full Sunni/Shiite split quoting Kirk (in and out of context) to claim that he would support or oppose the Third Gulf War. He's like the mirror universe MLK - his memory is so powerful that conservatives are fighting over who gets to claim it.

And I've seen more memes about Kirk in the last few months than I did in his entire lifetime, and that's not a good thing if you think he's a shitty cryptofascist who should disappear into the same unmarked grave they dumped Rush Limbaugh into.

First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. How does that go?

The fact that everybody on the left is making fun of Kirk - and everybody on the right is trying to claim him for their own - is really, really bad, because it shows he's far more influential and powerful and dangerous dead than he ever was alive.

And the fact that literal fascist Nick fucking Fuentes has emerged as the heir apparent to Charlie Kirk and the thought leader of young Republican men nationwide should terrify everyone.

That’s what should happen to people who simp for the Fourth Reich.

Basically, everything he ever did in life has been rendered useless

I wish that was true. Fucker's ideology is still alive and kicking (vulnerable people in the teeth). We need to make it unacceptable and punish those who cause harm onto others.

He wasn't even a believer in the shit he was peddling, just a talking head paid by grifters.

He deserved it. His legacy is shit and garbage because his life was shit and garbage.

Oh, please. That asshole got exactly what he asked for. And after he was gone, his wife showed exactly what she is: a spineless, petty, money-grubbing whore.

He was a tiny faced meme in life too.

Demoralizing? Knowing that absolute shit people will always be remembered as absolute shit people is heartening.

There's something incredibly satisfying and encouraging about this, like watching a viper's leaden soul being weighed by Anubis and devoured by Ammit in real time.

it's telling that she's more pissed off over been mocked by a black guy than the death of her husband.

Meanwhile, I still keep confusing him with Ben Shapiro.

This is only true amongst the people who are always laughing at him. Amongst the people who always liked him, they still worship his ideology.

I'm supposed to give a shit that some fascist propagandist died?

Bring his widow here and i'll laugh in one of her two faces.

Social Media is the Torment Nexus.

Yay

This is stupid because most of the people who know who Kirk is, only learned about him upon his death.

I'm pretty online, and didn't know much about him when he was alive EXCEPT that he was a huge meme.

The thing I really wish happened upon his death is the deconstructing his table shtick. Clearly a bastardization of what started the free speech movement at CalU Berkeley in the '60s. When the students set up off campus to talk about the discrimination happening with local business hiring practices, and the authorities, including the University, who's property they weren't on, tried to stop them.

Sounds good

That's exactly how it's supposed to be for evil people. Once they croak, nobody comes to their defense except other evil people, and their heart just isn't in it because, well, they're evil.
