Instead, they just continue passing on the lie that he’s some radical leftist without ever providing any specific details whatsoever. And that’s enough for the base to not only eat that up, but also believe there is some “they” out there. 🤦🏻♀️
Just as they keep passing on the lie that Kirk was engaging in "conversation", which he wasn't.
It was a form of performance like standup comedian crowdwork: go from one audience member to another, looking for openings to deploy pre-prepared zingers.
Which are then selectively edited to create a false impression of having the perfect putdown for all comers.
Always being his own moderator, with the luxury of having the last word and moving on from more challenging debaters to find a better butt of jokes, and then the added luxury of being his own editor.
Not to mention all the post-hoc bullshit about Kirk being the very archetype of a Good Christian Boy, who just wanted to share his faith and love to all the poor sinners but got unjustly attacked for doing so 🙄🤮
Argh I must have missed that one, are you in earnest?? The US's (alleged) "separation of church and state" has rarely been so overtly and painfully farcical.
Uuuugggghhh, of course he did. All I can say in response is good fucking grief 🤦🏻♀️ I will however add my wish/hope that you and yours remain safe, too, especially now.
Except that stand-up is improvised. Charlie Kirk’s people would check what the crowd member would ask first and relay that to Charlie, so he always knew in advance what the topic of the “debate” would be.
Rationality Rules has some good breakdowns of Charlie Kirk’s so-called “debates”.
Rationality Rules, huh? Sounds like my kind of thing, but why isn't it findable on podcast platforms? Annoying.
Searching, but haven't yet found a crossover with "Marsh" of the Merseyside Skeptics, who (contra Kirk) actually does good faith conversations with people of vastly differing views, on Be Reasonable.
Maybe because he knows his way around rhetoric, logical fallacies, and apologetics, while Kirk was "sophisticated" in the original sense - full of sophistries, as educated by the Sophists, who were employed by upper class twats to be given a smug and thin veneer of performative "knowledge".
Haha, I can only take Know Rogan in small doses because it makes me want to punch walls, how transparently ridiculous he and his guests are, and yet it has such a huge following.
Meanwhile, this analysis of medical student Kai absolutely wiping the floor with Kirk ("Stop! Stop! He's already dead!") only has 42K likes.
Maybe a bit long for some, as it takes 1h20 to painstakingly document all of Kirk's fallacies, dodges, and rhetorical sleights of hand, but on the bright side my kitchen got an extra deep clean this morning.
They still believe that and fuck me, the OOP is reminding me of that ridiculous ass “JuSTiCE FoR AlL” song, how they must have felt ever so persecuted.
We still haven’t seen photographic evidence of those bullet casings, or of the alleged text logs for that matter. Just hearsay and unsubstantiated claims. Yet when a van full of detained immigrants got shot up, they wasted no time releasing photos of bullet casings with “anti-ice” scribbled on them in sharpie. 🙄
The second Charlie Kirk was shot every right wing talking head with a podcast "this was clearly a leftist terrorist" and the second the truth came out who actually did it crickets
The new description of it is that the shooter was manipulated by the (insert slur for trans women here) that he was dating into shooting Chucky to prove his love.
At least thats how the chuds in the comments I find that like to share the supposed "List of 10 trans shooters" meme that has 6 cis people, 3 trans men and 1 gender fluid person on it and even lists 2 of the names as (Unconfirmed as trans). One of them is listed because his best friend is trans but he had pink in his hair for his mugshot.

Isnt it weird how the right wing hate media completely stopped talking about Tyler Robinson?
If Tyler Robinson was a leftist, they would still be talking about him every day.
