1. Condena Universal y la Doble Verdad.
La mayoría de los comentaristas condenan el asesinato de Charlie Kirk como un acto de violencia política inaceptable. Sin embargo, esta condena a menudo se acompaña de la insistencia en que su muerte no debe santificar su legado, marcado por el racismo, la misoginia y la promoción de la división.
- I didnt like nor agree with charlie kirk, but i condemn the violence toward him and any political violence toward anyone, regardless of their ideology.
- Political violence is wrong. But i did not respect charlie kirk in life and i will not do so in death. His feelings and opinions he put out there in life dictated his legacy-not his death.
- We can condemn political violence without honoring charlie kirk for virulent anti-black racism, misogyny, xenophobia, transphobia, and antisemitism.
- Political violence is vile, wicked, and destructive to the core of our democracy. And yet, two things can be true at once i stand against all forms of violence by sick, evil, and demented people while at the same time rejecting charlie kirks selectively harmful and divisive rhetoric.
2. El Legado de Odio y la Incitación a la Violencia.
Una parte significativa de la discusión se centra en la naturaleza de la retórica de Kirk, describiéndolo como un "nazi", "racista" y "misógino" que activamente fomentó la hostilidad y la violencia estocástica contra minorías y oponentes políticos.
- Charlie kirk was a racist, homophobic, misogynistic, anti-free speech domestic terrorist working to create americas equivalent of hitler youth through propaganda and fear im anti-violence. Murder is wrong. But so is everything kirk stood for and worked towards.

- Charlie kirk was a creator and supporter of political violence. Charlie kirk left a legacy of hate.
- Charlie kirk was a prominent fascist who spent his life promoting political violence and died in the middle of repeating his weird pro gun talking points.
3. "Cosechó lo que Sembró": La Paradoja de la Muerte.
Muchos comentarios señalan la ironía de que Kirk, un defensor acérrimo de la Segunda Enmienda que minimizaba las muertes por armas de fuego como un "costo aceptable" de la libertad, muriera precisamente por violencia armada, a menudo a manos de un extremista de derecha.
- Charlie kirk was killed because he promoted violence against minorities and got the exact outcome he desired for minorities heaped upon his own head instead.
- I do not advocate violence but, charlie kirk died by the sword by which he lived. He advocated for violence against people with whom he disagreed on political issues.

- Kirk also advocated for gun violence. In fact his last words were to defend gun violence as he was being shot dead in the neck.
- Charlie kirk wasnt assassinated hes just a statistic of gun violence in america. Charlie isnt a martyr hes a racist bigot that promoted hate against anyone anything he disagreed with.
4. La Instrumentalización por el Movimiento MAGA.
Se critica fuertemente cómo el asesinato fue inmediatamente explotado por Donald Trump y el movimiento MAGA para culpar a la "izquierda radical" y justificar una escalada de retórica violenta, persecución política y la creación de Kirk como un "mártir" o "héroe".
- The right immediately blamed the radical left and as one politician said it was a slur against the lgbtq community and calling for a civil war.
- With kirk its even worse because their justification for escalating violence against their political opponents is based entirely on lies because charlie kirk was killed by a trump supporter with no ties to the left.
- Trump and maga are exploiting tragedy for political gain, using kirks death as a soapbox while ignoring the epidemic of gun violence.
- The gop has been pushing charlie kirk as an angel shot down in his prime.
- Charlie kirks assassination is being weaponized by christian nationalist leaders, who cast his death as martyrdom and a divine mandate, turning grief into calls for spiritual war and militant action.
