    I cannot express most of what I want to say because I’m not one to type very well. I appreciate everyone that posts on this forum, as you can see I’ve been here since the conception and only joined after lurking for a couple of years. I read daily on here but rarely post. Talking with my daughter about this and this is what she gave me to post “
    I understand your anger, but dismissing Scripture as “mythology” overlooks that Jesus Himself rooted His mission in the Word: “The Spirit of the Lord…has sent me to proclaim good news to the poor and liberty to the oppressed” (Luke 4:18). Yes, hypocrisy and bigotry should be exposed—“learn to do good; seek justice, correct oppression” (Isaiah 1:17)—but to claim Christianity was only made up to control people ignores that the early church grew through sacrifice, not power. Even if some corrupted the faith later, Jesus’ teachings stand: “Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you” (Matthew 5:44). That is not control—it’s radical transformation.”. My respect for all of you is genuine and I feel as though I know some of you. We all have lived different lives with many experiences to share with each other.
    Thank you for allowing me to share and God be with all of you

    I and others have already posted other videos invalidating your accusations. Pay attention. You are being proven wrong time and time again on this forum and the more you post (which is a lot) you are exposing personal issues & flaws that you have developed.

    So, because Charlie Kirk is being used by MAGA for political gain makes him a racist bigot, not his words, deeds and actions. Got it.

    I voted for the Black guy twice and a woman once. There are many non-MAGA people who like and agree with many of his views. You may not agree with his stance on important debate issues. That is fine

    Personally, I think you have watched enough of his videos now, that you agree with him on a lot of things, realize he makes sensible arguments and are subconsciously over-compensating for it by telling yourself he is a bigot in order to suppress these thoughts and feelings you are having by agreeing with someone you consider MAGA, Conservative, Republican or religious- all things which you hate.

    I didn't follow this, but I did read about his family who wasn't there which is very odd. I also find it odd that Christians fall in line with a convicted sex offender who does NOT follow any Christian Values

    Why do yall lying about Kirk not being racist. You havnt proved ****. Kirk is a racist and he inherently believes DEI is bad because black people do not have the IQ to do high skill jobs. Hes repeated this numerous times



    Quit gas lighting

    You don't know what Jesus said because the scriptures were written more than 40 years after his death and some more than 100 years later.......and edited many many times after by men with an agenda.

    I can appreciate you having your faith, but please don't try to pass it on to others who prefer history and truth over mythology.

    Feel free to believe whatever you like, same for Islam, Judiasm, hindu, whatever, but don't try to convince me it isn't written by man to control people and consolidate power, because it is.

    Charlie Kirk was a lying racist - who was paid by BILLIONAIRES to make the Christian FACIST movement sound palatable - his arguments were shallow, and racist in nature.

    And, when you lie.....which he did in the VERY FIRST COMMENT - it makes all the rest of the stuff bullshit too.....

    No one is proving **** in here - and trust me, I don't see many of the MORON TRUMP SUPPORTERS posts because they are stupid, inane and full of hateful propaganda.

    You want to REALLY HELP push for gun control laws so kids are killed in classrooms - better than listening to that charlatan Kirk talk about paying to get the person who attacked the husband of a politician with a hammer out of jail....and laughed about it.

    Kirk was a RACIST ASSHAT.....who tried to take advantage of simple minded people that don't critically think well....

    I really hope his family and loved ones were able to have ceremony for him separate from
    that glorified MAGA pep rally.

    Pure unadulterated NAZI LIKE Propaganda rally.


    Horst WESSEL is exactly what they are trying to emulate - some of you arguing can do yourself a favor and look him up.....you might learn something.

    And his wife fund raising on his death is disgraceful.....

    I’ve seen him say genuinely decent things and also pretty terrible things. I think it’s better to separate the man from the ugly business of being a pro-Trump podcaster/influencer where he needs to have snappy terrible takes in order to stay relevant.

    Exactly not EVERYTHING he said was bad, but tons of it was.....

    At least he believed in releasing the Epstein files and Free speech, I will give him that, I would have argued with him - but respect his position to be a racist - it isn't illegal it is just disgraceful.

    You are smart enough to realize the context in which he is speaking. He is speaking about the DEI debate and is referring to specific comments made by Michelle Obama, Sheila Jackson-Lee and Ketanji Brown-Jackson about personally benefitting from DEI; or, in Ketanji Brown-Jackson's case, comments by Biden.

    Good grief. He did not say Black people do not have the I.Q. or brain power to get into high positions.

    You know damn well that he would say Candace Owens has more brain power than Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi combined. I'm pretty certain he would say ANY Conservative Black woman has more brain power than liberal White women.

    He makes it extremely clear in his debates that the thinks Blacks , Whites and everyone else are equal and equally capable. He also consistently argues against people who think otherwise- actual racists, homophobes and bigots.

    Was it an indecent comment? Yes. Obviously, they are smart, high-achieving women. However, in the context of the debate and in reference to statements they made themselves, it is not a racist comment.

    I already posted this, but here is a Black Harvard grad that can explain it more clearly for you.

    Again here's the full clip. There is no context. Kirk inherently believes black folks have lower iq than those of white folks. Hes repeatedly said this but yall keep sane washing him



    Yes folks like Candace who hes friends with he does say good things about but hes said on average Black folks have lower iq than those of white folks. He says theres exceptions but on average the median Black person is much lower iq.

    You know what's funny, if Kirk was a great communicator, you wouldn't need 3rd party videos to try and add context to uncut videos of Kirk talking.

    I don’t know anything about him, but this helps explain why there are such polar views on him. It depends on what each consumes, and plenty of people are in echo chambers, which are not necessarily intentional.

    Can you post where he said this please?

    In the U.S., Whites score lower on I.Q. tests than Asians. There are many exceptions, but on average the median White person is lower I.Q.

    Is it racist to publish those test results?

    The right would probably argue that his message was clear to them and the left were the only people who needed a 3rd party to try to add context.

    Still praying for you Dakota. One thing that cannot be taken is my ability and right to pray and as long as you come into my thoughts I will pray for you. Even when I see you on the other forums on this site. That means that you will be brought to God’s throne many times because I see you here quite often.
