On the Death of Charlie Kirk
On the Death of CharlieĀ Kirk
People calling Charlie Kirkās death a āReichstag Fireā[1] seem to be missing that the USAās RF was 24 years ago this very day. Meanwhile in 2025, weāre already at the point where Trump is declaring āwarā on major US cities like Chicago via social media. Charlie Kirk may have been a spokesman for Turning Point USA, but his death only should be a āturning pointā for folks to pull their heads out of their asses and see how fascist this country already is. The fascism began to be normalized in a serious way decades ago by both Republicans and Democrats.
US politics *will* continue to become more fascist, but it wonāt be because of this; it will be because capitalism is facing an existential crisis due to its own internal contradictions. LEFTISTS MUST STUDY AND ORGANIZE AS MARXIST-LENINISTS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD TO BUILD OUR STRENGTH AND SHOW UP FOR OUR SIDE OF THE STRUGGLE, THE SIDE OF THE EXPLOITED, OPPRESSED, AND IMPERIALIZED!
Back to Kirkāāāfor the last timeāāāhereās my eulogy: Charlie Kirk was a paid, professional fascist agitator who took large checks from rich people hoping to use him to undermine the foundation of every right that working people have and have fought for, and Charlie appeared to love it. Letās remember Kirkās vile career with some of his own recent words and actions such as a veiled reference to stoning LGBTQ+ people to *death* by invoking the Bibleās Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13:
āJust sayinā,ā he said, smiling as his co-hosts laughed. āSo, Ms. Rachel, you quote Leviticus 19, love your neighbor as yourself, the chapter before affirms Godās perfect law when it comes to sexual matters.ā He was referring to Leviticus 18:22, which says, āThou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination,ā and Leviticus 20:13, which says, āIf a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.ā
Trump has repeatedly attended and spoken at Charlie Kirk's rallies despite his extreme anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric.
Hereās another recent veiled reference to violence against transgender people from Kirk:
āI blame the decline of American men. This never should have beenāāāsomeone should have just, uh, took (sic) care of [transgender people] the way we used to took, take care of things in the 1950s or 60s, but as you have, have testosterone rates go down, and all these men act like women, and they donāt do anythingā¦there are a lot of sick people in the world unfortunately, and without the strength to go against them, the countryās gonna completelyā¦ā
In closing, if youāre just now getting concerned about where US politics *might* go from here, you and I are not the same unless youāre young and just learning of all this for the first time. The left hasnāt been showing up, but it needs to start. Today.
[1] The Reichstag Fire was the burning of the German parliament building in 1933. The arson was blamed on a communist, but the communists maintained that the nazis did it themselves as a āfalse flagā attack. The nazis used the event as a pretext for abolishing democratic norms and unveiling āemergencyā laws, similar to the āantiterroristā overhaul of the US government and client governments after the 9/11 attacks in 2001.
