    They tried so god damn hard to make this guy into a martyr for the right and it blew up in their face lmao, literally no one cared about Kirk while he lived, and in death he’s an even bigger meme.

      They basically speedran 9/11 humor. In the Bush years it took a while before Family Guy and South Park were making fun of overly saccharine 9/11 tributes, Kirk was a joke in under 24 hours.

        “Pop a Perc for Charlie Kirk” being recorded a day after his assassination is one of the peak moments in standup for me.

        It also doesn’t help that his own wife wanted a WWE show instead of a funeral and Trump cared more about the ballroom than Kirky. The powers that be didn’t even care about his death. It’s the equivalent of showing up to a wedding in a tshirt of a tuxedo, cargo shorts, and flip flops
