They Aren't Defending Kirk's Legacy...They Are Fearing Their Own
Yesterday, the US witnessed the death of a highly toxic, divisive conservative activist...Charlie Kirk. By the age of 31, Kirk had found himself cemented in the spheres of the upper echelon of right-wing politics by spewing the most hateful and problematic rhetoric of this century. Upon learning of his entrance into the afterlife...the MAGA boisterous took to every media platform they could to DEMAND respect for his memory. 😏 No tears. Very few condolences. An innumerable amount of DEMANDS for empathy and respect.
Kirk is being "honored" in the manner that he cemented through the legacy that he PURPOSEFULLY built brick by brick.
Kirk didn't believe in empathy and believed that gun violence casualties were NECESSARY for the protection of "our other God given rights". 😏 His (and Trump's) psychophants are not working to protect the legacy of Kirk...they are fearful of the reality that his deise presented them. What legacy would they leave behind should they be ascended unto the bosom of their ancestors TODAY? They KNOW that whether they are osplaying for a [sustainable] income or they truly believe what they spew will not have people (even family) mourning their deaths. They are facing the reality that their loss of mortality would be celebrated and then SWIFTLY forgotten.
Their delusions of saviorhood and dreams of having chapters written about them in history books died with Kirk.
The realization that Kirk will be viewed no differently by any other tyrannical white supremacist who created the mindset that led to his death is a reflection that they have [diligently] worked to avoid viewing (and accepting). Instead of taking the time to reflect and change...they are doing what they do best...hiding behind the invocation of [additional] violence. Right-wing politicians, pundits, influencers, podcasters, and more are calling for "war" in retaliation for Kirk's death. After spending the night proclaiming that they "left" is violent...they are REQUIRING their base to disperse violence.
In a roundabout way, they are honoring Kirk through his words, works, and ideals with their calls for vigilantism.
