Charlie Kirk was a despicable, privileged, agent
of hate, intolerance, bigotry and racism, who
advocated for the sacrifice of innocent children
on the alter of an infantile gun rights
interpretation.
From Wikipedia:
Promotion of falsehoods and conspiracy theories
According to Forbes, Kirk was known for "his
repudiation of liberal college education and
embrace of pro-Trump conspiracy theories."[38]
Kirk promoted the antisemitic Cultural Marxism
conspiracy theory, and described universities as
"islands of totalitarianism."
In a 2015 speech at the Liberty Forum of Silicon
Valley, Kirk stated that he had applied to the
United States Military Academy in West Point, New
York, and was not accepted.[13] He said that "the
slot he considered his went to 'a far less-
qualified candidate of a different gender and a
different persuasion'" whose test scores he
claimed he knew. He told The New Yorker in 2017
that he was being sarcastic when he said it. He
told the Chicago Tribune in 2018 that "he was just
repeating something he'd been told",[5][41] while
at a New Hampshire Turning Point event featuring
Rand Paul in October 2019 he claimed that he never
said it.
In July 2018, Kirk falsely claimed on social media
that Justice Department statistics showed an
increase in human trafficking arrests from 1,952
in the year 2016 to 6,087 in the first half of
2018. He deleted the tweet without an explanation
the next day, after a fact-checker had pointed out
that the false 2018 number had originated on a
conspiracy site 8chan.[42][43]
In December 2018, Kirk falsely claimed that
protesters in the French yellow vests movement
chanted, "We want Trump." These false claims were
later repeated by President Trump himself.[44]
Kirk spread falsehoods about voter fraud[45][46]
and the COVID-19 pandemic.[38] In defending the
Trump administration's response to the COVID-19
pandemic, Kirk falsely stated that, during the
H1N1 swine flu pandemic, it "took President Barack
Obama 'millions infected and over 1,000 deaths'"
to declare a public health emergency.[47][48]
COVID-19 misinformation
Kirk spread false information and conspiracy
theories about COVID-19 on social media platforms,
such as Twitter, in 2020. Kirk sharply criticized
Democrats' criticism of Donald Trump's withdrawal
of World Health Organization (WHO) funding and
referred to COVID-19 as the "China virus", which
was retweeted by Trump.[8]
Kirk alleged that the WHO covered up information
about the COVID-19 pandemic. He was briefly banned
from Twitter after falsely claiming that
hydroxychloroquine had proved to be "100%
effective in treating the virus";[8] he alleged
that Gretchen Whitmer, the Democratic governor of
Michigan, threatened doctors who tried to use the
medication.[8] These falsehoods were retweeted by
Rudy Giuliani whose account was then suspended by
Twitter as well.[8][49] Kirk also described the
public health measure of social distancing
prohibitions in churches as a "Democratic plot
against Christianity" and made the unfounded
assertion that authorities in Wuhan, China, were
burning patients.[8] In 2020, Kirk said that he
refused to abide by mask requirements, stating
that "the science around masks is very
questionable."[38][50]
In July 2021, Kirk promoted misleading claims
about the efficacy and safety of COVID-19
vaccines.[18] On Fox News' Tucker Carlson show,
Kirk called mandatory requirements for students to
take the COVID-19 vaccine "medical apartheid".[51]
Election fraud claims and the 2021 United States
Capitol attack
Immediately after Donald Trump lost the 2020
presidential election, Kirk promoted false and
disproven claims of fraud in the election.[52][53]
On November 5, 2020, Kirk was the leader of a Stop
the Steal protest at the Maricopa Tabulation
Center in Phoenix.[54]
Charlie Kirk was considered a "big name" social
influencer in Rudy Giuliani's communications plan
to overturn the 2020 election.[55]
On January 5, 2021, the day before the Washington,
D.C., protest that led to the January 6 United
States Capitol attack, Kirk wrote on Twitter that
Turning Point Action and Students for Trump were
sending more than 80 "buses of patriots to D.C. to
fight for this president".[56][57][58] A spokesman
for Turning Point said that the groups ended up
sending seven buses, not 80, with 350 students.
[56][59] In the lead-up to the storming, Kirk said
he was "getting 500 emails a minute calling for a
civil war."[60] Publix heiress Julie Fancelli gave
Charlie Kirk's organizations $1.25 million to fund
the buses to the January 6 event. Kirk also paid
$60,000 for Kimberly Guilfoyle to speak at the
Trump rally.[61]
Afterward, Kirk said the violent acts at the
Capitol were not an insurrection and did not
represent mainstream Trump supporters.[62][63]
Appearing before the United States House Select
Committee on the January 6 Attack, Charlie Kirk
pleaded the Fifth Amendment privilege against
self-incrimination. His team however "provided the
committee with 8,000 pages of records in response
to its requests."[64] In another closed-door
meeting of the House January 6 Committee, Ali
Alexander blamed Kirk and Turning Point USA for
financing the travel of demonstrators to the Stop
the Steal rally.[65]
Climate change
Kirk consistently supported the extraction and use
of fossil fuels. He was a climate change
denialist, claiming that humans have no
significant effect on global climate change.[6]
