A Proper Memorial for Charlie Kirk
In His Own Words — Who He Really Was (and Wasn’t)
Political violence is wrong. I condemn the assassination of Charlie Kirk, full stop. Nothing in this piece should be read as celebrating his death.
Today, many on the right are working to make him a martyr—to treat him as a civil-rights activist when, if anything, he was a civil-rights annihilator. I usually write long essays threading the truth, but in this case his own record is the best evidence. So here is Kirk—in his own voice, on video.
Watch, judge for yourself, and share with others, so history isn’t rewritten to cast him as a paragon of justice or righteousness.

On how it is a “prudent deal” that “it is worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the 2nd Amendment to protect our other God-given rights.”
On his “thrill” for the US Military summarily executing civilians who pose no imminent threat to the U.S. without any due process or recourse:
On calling for the U.S. military to invade blue cities under false pretense (you can see my coverage on how this was, in fact, completely false pretense in this article):
On the “prowling blacks” who “go around for fun to target white people”:
On calling for Chicago to be invaded with tanks, drones and the marines:
On referring to black prosecutors as “savages”:
On the idea that immigrants, even those who come here legally, can never be real Americans depending on where they came from or what their name sounds like:
On attacking Science and claiming that there’s no scientific consensus on Climate Change:
On calling for the politicization of the Depart of Justice to undertake political prosecutions:
On blaming the deaths in Texas resulting from the flood in earlier 2025 on D.E.I. when it has been well established that DHS Secretary Kristi Noem ordered all expenses over $100k to be approved directly by her leading to massive delays on the preparations for the flood:
On the lie that there’s no separation of church and state:
On using the government coercion to get TPUSA into college campuses:
On referring to Federal employees as parasites:
On how Kirk wanted Trump to withholding emergency resources from California during the fires for purely political reasons:
When eulogies turn into myth, memory has to do its job. This record isn’t a celebration of violence; it’s a refusal to let the public story skip over what Charlie Kirk said and pushed. Share these receipts with anyone being sold the martyrdom—because democracies don’t survive on flattering fables, they survive on facts.
We can mourn a killing and still reject the whitewashing of the ideas he championed. If you found this useful, pass it on. If you disagree, point to the clip and make the case. Either way, let’s keep the conversation evidence based.
If you’ve made it this far, you know why this work matters. This newsletter isn’t just analysis—it’s a receipts archive and a signal boost against revisionism. Every subscription widens the reach and strengthens the spine of people pushing back—peacefully, publicly, and persistently.
Subscribe. Share. Stand. The record depends on it.

Well there was the time he said black women didn’t have the brainpower to earn a good job and had to steal a white man’s slot. And that the civil rights act was a mistake and MLK, Jr was a bad person. Which is ironic since I hear that’s who MAGA is comparing him to now. Also ironic that he said women should submit to their husbands, and go to college just to get an Mrs. degree, but I guess that doesn’t apply to his widow who’s taking over his organization. I’m sure I’ll remember more.
Every single one of these reels you posted angered me but the one that I believe showed the internal workings of who Charlie Kirk was is the Texas flood video. To listen to him blame the Democrats and DEI when the Republicans are in power in every aspect of our government was not just appalling but also disgusting. This is precisely why he is loved by the MAGA base. He promotes hatred and stirs up violence against immigrants, people of color, Democrats and even women. This is who he was, not a saint, a savior, the 13th apostle. He was a hate driven man that had charisma and unfortunately used that charisma for the wrong reasons.
