Suddenly feels like the entire world is just in the grip of some lunatic American style culture war. Hate it.

Paid a visit to the London arms fair today... Found a component for cluster munitions, banned under international law, on full display. Confirmed by staff, and removed swiftly by event organisers. But what else remains? These vile weapons should never be peddled in the UK.

This makes his callous political interventions, and his overall character, 100 times worse!
I went on @charliekirk11โs debate show back in 2022. He plays a character, the real man was exceedingly polite and completely engaged with the young people in Turning Point. That character spread hate and poison, but there is a human behind it. Iโm praying for that human

I respect @ezraklein a lot, but this is dead wrong and frankly a baffling thing to say. Charlie Kirk was the *epitome* of our modern brand of poisonous politics. Ezra tries to make the point that he went around to college campuses to debate people. And that's true, for a very

Charlie Kirk and Turning Point USA put me on their โprofessor watch list,โ designed to harass and intimidate academics. He was no free speech warrior, he was a free speech hypocrite.
I am so fucking pissed off that somehow Kirk is being made out by all the wishy-washy liberals as a martyred saint of free speech. The fucker actually had a professor watch list to hound anyone whose political views disagreed with him. Stop with your rewriting of history.

Hi @ezraklein, we're friendly, we've been on each other's shows. We both agree Kirk's murder is horrific. Genuine Q: was Kirk "practicing politics in exactly the right way" when he called for me to be deported because he didn't like my Covid view on MSNBC? https://t.co/Hf8XfRiyTg

charlie kirk opposed the civil rights act, called george floyd a scumbag, said heโd be worried abt black pilots & that heโd force his daughter to carry a pregnancy to term if she was raped. he shouldnโt have been killed but he def was an extremist.
All that Charlie ever did was have conversations with people. He didnโt insult anyone. He made arguments. He debated. He wasnโt an extremist in any way. Everyone who knew Charlie personally loved him. Thatโs the kind of guy he was. And they still killed him. I am furious and

when Malcolm X was assassinated by the FBI, there was no official comment by the sitting or former Presidents mourning him and saying how terrible it was. No leading politicians came out to mourn him. The media class gleefully celebrated it. The NYT obituary called him an evil

When the state kills people, for political reasons, it is for some reason not "political violence". When individuals do the same, it is.

You can openly argue Black people are inferior, that they should be murdered for precrime etc, and polite liberals will applaud you in the Times. Say โfree Palestineโ and theyโll accuse you of โJew hatredโ and fire you from your job. The disrespect liberals show for Black

Spurious and bad history. The recent killings are politically heterogeneous. What's striking about US political culture for an outsider is how violent it is in general - how its self-conception as an armed republic means violence leaches into everything.
I truly hope Charlie Kirk makes it through. Everyone's thoughts should be with his young family at this time. The horror of this afternoon in Utah underlines a horrifying trend. Left wing political assassination attempts are on the rise again. The late 1800s and early 1900s saw
