An adjunct who had taught successfully for 20 years in an academic program I used to direct was fired for his response to a student, not his own and not in the classroom, who initiated a discussion of Kirk’s murder. So at least 601.

Rokita should be prosecuted and jailed. That’s harassment – and he should be appropriately punished as a convicted felon for it.

We had one employee who made comments on a private Facebook profile. One of her family members or “friends” sent copies of the post to our workplace and demanded that we fire the employee and threatened the company if we did not fire her. This world is dark, man.

Why did liberal cancel culture do this?

Charlie Kirk got what he sought. Infamy. Fuck him, Fuck Trump.

Kirk’s widow’s college roommate is Lindsey Halligan. She is a White House insider, who was tasked to be on the Comet etc. prosecutions, and enough of an insider to be in the President;s box at the Us Open, with Bondi, son-in-law Kushner and Granddaughter. Many thought she was Melania in pics.

Who?

Damn I was hoping they didn’t make that permanent. 😡😡

What I see is an object lesson in the devastation of allowing lies and hate to dominate/control our thoughts. There is a WHOLE LOT of COLLATERAL DAMAGE for all concerned from MTG, to McConnell, Mike Johnson, emigrants, etc.. What rises from the ashes is what matters. Opportunity awaits.

World wouldn't have been particularly that much better if he had lived to see Trump fail rather than dying like a bitch and then having Trump fail regardless. Also MAGA having a Hitler youth wing helmed by an effective propagandist that has proven difficult to replace is a problem.

Point one is correct. Two and three are not.

I agree with you on #1 but I think you're wrong about #2 and #3. I can't elaborate on #2 without getting into trouble so I'll just address #3. You assume his ambitions would be thwarted. I think we've been spared his inevitable run for POTUS.

Number 1 is true. The rest nah. He was a nazi.

I'm celebrating, as I will whenever it happens to a Nazi.

Oh, there's evidence, but that doesn't mean it's conclusive. More evidence for that than the trans stuff that was being howled immediately from the rooftops.

So you're saying Nick Fuentes isn't a Republican who hated Charlie Kirk for not being enough of a racist?

well.. i celebrated his death, its not NOBODY

He was shot. NOT assassinated. Important people get assassinated. He was a nobody.

He wasn't "assassinated" you fucking clown

When in a war, there are casualties. The problem solved is that we don’t have to hear CK anymore.

Who are you and why should we care about your unnecessary disclaimers?

1. It depends 2. Yes it did, it solved the problem of him going to colleges and telling kids to be racist fascists 3. Wishful thinking

"Things happen"

Add me to the list captain 😮‍💨

Is Elon gonna pay their legal fees, or nah?

The absurdity of our timeline no longer shocks me. It's sad to be an American now.

I don't support what happened to Charlie Kirk, however Charlie Kirk supported what happened to Charlie Kirk... So let's punish anyone who actually quoted Charlie Kirk...

Charlie Kirk was a pathetic loser filled with racist hate and selfish greed, he is not missed.

For a guy who claimed he was defending free speech, that's a terrible failure as a legacy.

If anyone asks your thoughts about Charlie Kirk, it is now OK to say: “You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen.”

He called Martin Luther King Jr an awful person. He trashed Simone BIles for pulling out of the Olympics for mental health reasons. Can't stand his smarmy stupid ugly face. Anyhow he died doing what he loved...hating on other people.

Your daily reminder that Kirk was a hateful racist bigot and kinda dumb

Counting or not counting gang violence?

One guy’s neck implodes

And they say that they are "free speech absolutists". In reality, they are just absolutists.

And if you widen the net to "attempted firings", it would probably be a book instead of a news article. For example: www.kold.com/2025/11/13/v...

So even the ones who weren’t fired face the impact of this to this day. And this isn’t even to mention the list of professors that Kirk had gathered for years so he and followers could stalk and harass. How that is even allowed to happen is beyond me.

Punished for telling the truth about a dead nazi.

who’s charlie kirk?

You can lose your job if you are not sufficiently respectful to Charlie Kirk, but it's also totally cool to host someone who ordered the killing of a journalist in the Oval Office.

I know someone

First day on net? 😉

All for a racist price of shit grifter.

Free speech. 🙄

Hopefully they'll track the lawsuits, too.

Meanwhile kids on tiktok are referring to oral sex as "giving kirk". The govt can't force people to respect (or care) about him

Free speech as long as it’s speech they agree with

Who's Charlie Kirk?

it's only an assassination if they work for this guy: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hasan-i... otherwise it's simply sparkling manslaughter

Charlie Kirk died, and he deserved it. There, even simpler and more accurate.

bsky.app/profile/saty...

For sure. What I found interesting in the conversations that occurred after the murder with the people who claimed to have been supporters was how few of them actually knew anything about him or what he had said. They knew that he supported Trump and knew virtually nothing else.

Yes. It was less of a murder and more of a finding out

^^^^^^^^THIS^^^^^^^

No shit? Is that why I might have referenced three criteria that lead to the usage of the term in both legal and common-language contexts? Off to the void with you.

I get that Kirk sucks. But calling an attack an assassination doesn't in any way denote admiration for the target. (Cf. Reinhard Heydrich and his fuhrer.)

Nor did his death merit the half masts etc

Bro it was absolutely an assassination this is so petty and stupid

People got bored with Trump's project to give Charlie Kirk the Horst Wessel treatment. Trump's followers will barely remember Charlie Kirk by the time the trial of his killer comes around, and we'll have to be subjected to a push from right-wing media to remind them who he was.

THANK YOU! This has been driving me crazy too.

Assassins and would-be assassins often have idiosyncratic and/or incoherent motives. See, for instance, Mark David Chapman, Squeaky Fromme, John Hinckley, and Charles Guiteau, none of whom had motives that make a whole lot of sense.

I made this same point regarding language used to label this crime at the time. I don’t think there was ever credible information about the shooter’s motive. It seems like a coverup started immediately by Kash & things have become murkier rather than clearer over time. www.npr.org/2025/09/18/n...

No shit? I guess that's why I offered three criteria that lead to the usage of the term in both legal and common-language contexts.

Only amongst the perpetually online, myself included. His supposed supporters who held histrionic vigils for him after Trump tried to Horst Wessel him had next to no idea who he was or what he had said before he was killed.

Most people aren't tuned into American politics. Those that are knew who kirk was. The media landscape has changed to the point that the biggest political commentators aren't necessarily well know to the average person.

At the end of the day, he's still dead.

A friend did get doxxed but his employer protected him. Or, more specifically his union protected him. Uniting labor matters.

“Free speech absolutism”…but not if it offends the MAGAs. 🙄

A kindergarten assistant was fired for accurately quoting Kirk *before* his death was announced. "Vaughn, a 37-year-old Christian who has taken missionary trips to Guatemala, said her call for prayer was sincere" (Reuters).

mannn these rubes are gonna force us at GUNPOINT to mourn trump when he dies

Your daily reminder that Trump only protects/defends/supports/cares about people who pledge their allegiance to him.

Wow, what a passionate response to this man's death. I'm sure that fervor has held up and they're still talking about him, like, every day, right?

Mike Lee and others mocked Hortman's murder with partisan jabs and faced no consequences, but mourned Kirk's with solemn outrage. The whiplash says it all. Compassion only when it's on the GOP's own. The hypocrisy is unmistakable.

Ironic, we’re suffering the crimes of another McCarthy. Enabling a rapist felon insurrectionist.

Is assassination the correct word? What is your definition?

And most of them didn’t even say something this bad. bsky.app/profile/atru...

I suspect that this is laying the groundwork to stifle the champagne popping and people dancing in the street when … you know …

sounds like the american way

Charlie who?

But it's OK for trump to say nasty things about Biden having stage 4 cancer🙄

Another great reason for UBI

Tell me this list includes Larry Bushart, who was jailed for over a month before charges were dropped.

666 in total

They all need to sue

Keep posting Charlie memes. He and his freak fans deserve it.

I'm sure the assassination of Kirk (a civilian) & Melissa Hortman (Dem elect) were handled with equality & honored similarly by the current administration...

Sounds like a lot of people didn’t like that gentleman that you’re talking about

All over some racist POS?

All this for a man who wanted to subjugate anyone that didnt look or act like him: aka a Nazi.

Absurd. Want to protect racist misogynists from other psychos? Gun control.

I deep distaste for lawfare, but those folks need to sue.

It's a dress rehearsal for Trump's inevitable demise. This was a shot across the bow that partying will not be tolerated, and there will be consequences for not acting mournful.

Several people got in touch with us after this story ran to share their experiences. Others are telling their stories publicly for the first time, including Sucker Punch Productions artist Drew Harrison: aftermath.site/sucker-punch...

All for a total Richardhead.

Someone the rest of the GOP should follow as an example. Trump first...

What a bunch of fucking snowflakes. I didn't like his views and thought he was a prick, but I wouldn't celebrate his death. A huge number of people did dislike him enough to celebrate it and I couldn't really give a fuck if they did. People certainly shouldn't lose their job over it.

Kirk might destroy more in death than he ever succeeded in destroying in life

Fuck Charlie Kirk !!!

bsky.app/profile/maud...

Kirk was friendly fired and they got the media to fuck itself.

Are you counting three firemen in New Orleans? including two women firemen.

Is that the guy whose widow was trying to make herself cry at his televised, fire-work themed 'memorial'????

This dude was not a government official, a war hero, a philanthropist, or even a public servant. He was just a guy who used dirty debate techniques to mow over his opponents, NOT interested in problem-solving or actual dialog. It should be illegal to fire people for commenting on Charlie WhoTF Kirk.
