Turning Point USA was founded on the principles of unrestricted gun access and the "freedom of choice" when it came to vaccinations.

It's two principle founders died of complications to COVID-19 and unrestricted gun access. And I find that beautiful.

The problem is too many of us, on the right and even some of us on the left, dont actually have anything they stand for. Theyre reactive and take a cue from their favorite social media personalities and talking heads on how they should feel about things. It's great that these irreverent people are seeing charlie kirk for the laughing stock that he is but it's not like a new kirk or a Rogan or some other charmer cant still scoop them up and put them to bad use.

I don’t know - in fact they talk about that a bit in the article. Ten years ago, Kirk’s appeal was his views being “edgy” and different. Now times have changed and most younger people think Trump and his supporters are dicks.

I genuinely hope you're right.But I know far too many edgy twenty year olds who are still pro trump. I wonder how many of the ones in the article have seen the light vs how many of them are just going with the flow

Because it’s the Imgur way. I admittedly didn’t do a great job, had a lot to do at work today. I think I apologized in the comments.

slight inaccuracy: if memory serves, 9/11 jokes were being made online almost immediately. i remember hearing people who were old enough to remember (i was 3) describe how, moments after the towers fell, forum users were already posting gifs of hulk hogan superimposed atop news footage to make it look like he was pummeling the wtc to bits.

Nah, every society needs cautionary examples. Of which we are now seeing in great excess. I'm hoping memories of his cynicism outlast memories of his doctrine.

It'll happen eventually. Someone will post one relating to him, people'll ask "what?" and they'll have to link some meme archive to explain.

To paraphrase Rick,..

That's why their boos mean nothing,.. just look at what makes the cheer.

YES!!! That’s one of my fave quotes!! I will likely use it on Monday at work. It might slip out, I have a full-day full team mtg with a dinner after, ugh. Said in a soft, gentle voice, it has so much power. I work with a group of conservative, pretentious women, I don’t like them very much.

I think having zero positive values and basically being in a death cult makes you blind from being able to see actual virtue in other people (and possibly yourself). They can only see people in terms of marketing value. Which is pure superfice and artifice.

Within minutes of his death, one of my best friends (an ex-girlfriend from college) called me because she was feeling conflicted about someone's death bringing her joy and finding it funny. So I started making a whole mess of dark jokes about it. And a read her a bunch that y'all were making here and from Bluesky. She said it made her feel so much better that she wasn't an aberration for feeling that way. That some people really are just evil and don't deserve solemnity in death.

Have never understood the whole "don't speak ill of the dead" or "don't ever wish harm on anyone" mentality. All seems like a psyop to excuse the actions of disgusting people, tbh.

Funny enough, shortly after this happened I talked to my cousin and I asked if we could agree that it was funny that he was gunned down right in the middle of dismissing gun violence. And he responded that people being harmed by guns was never funny and then we didn't talk for a while.

Making "Get Kirked" functionally the new "kys" is such a funny move in the gamer lingo space because banning kirk's name like they did with kys would piss off everyone
