Our Culture Needs To Get Its Act Together About Political Violence And Political Lawfare.
Charlie Kirk was assassinated by a political terrorist today as I was in the middle of finishing up my weekly article. He leaves a legacy of tremendous energy and effectiveness as a representative for civil discourse and dialogue and potential and all that is good about opportunities in America.
Thoughts and prayers to his family as they deal with this senseless and insane act of political violence.
The violent left is getting increasingly desperate as their bankrupt message falls flat with average Americans and we can expect increased violence going forward as they become more unhinged over their inability to salvage their idjiotic plans.
My article this week was going to be a continuation of the theme of cultural lunacy in America. I started writing about it in 2023 when I did somewhat of a data analysis of the preponderance of articles piling up in my research folders and noticed that the LGBTQ+ and abortion related articles were being far out paced by the culture lunacy category articles.
Charlie Kirk was on my mind because the looney left has been unrelentingly ignorant, deranged and inhospitable to his appearances on school campuses across the country where he somewhat good-naturedly but dogmatically debates often unhinged college activists, whose best debate tactics seem to be profanity laced rants. The on-line banter has not been much better, near stone age imbecilic rage-based nonsensical intemperate screeds.
Two incidents stood out recently, including the puzzling incoherent rage that followed Kirk’s seemingly innocuous tweet that “It’s all about Jesus,” which was reposted by Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson-who makes no excuses for being religious-resulting in an outpouring of hate, vitriol and ignorance directed at both men.
Far more disturbing was the reaction to Kirk’s comments about the 22 August 2025 murder of 23-year-old Ukraine immigrant Iryna Zarutska on a North Carolina light rail by a repeat criminal offender with known mental health issues, whose own mother had unsuccessfully fought to have him incarcerated and treated for his dangerous and out of control violent acts with family.
Charlie rightly pointed out the unconscionable delay in the reporting as well as the lack of coverage by the LSMBTGA in the weeks since the murder took place. Much like the above article, the race of the murderer (and victim) was unclear and it has not been lost on most observers that murders such as this that don’t fit the narrative of the “oppressed black” victim do not seem to get the same energetic coverage the LSMBTGA only seems interested in generating in the relatively rare case where the races are reversed (white on black.)
There was a sharp exchange between CNN’s Van Jones and Kirk over Charlie’s comments about the lack of reporting and the seeming reticence to cover a black on white murder. This piece (commentary from X) speaks for itself:
NEW: CNN panel shows sympathy for the man who stabbed Iryna Zarutska in the throat, shames people for calling it a racist attack. Van Jones claimed there was no evidence that Zarutska was attacked because she was white. Audio footage, however, reveals the man bragged about how he “got” a white girl immediately after the attack. “For Charlie Kirk to say, we know he did it because she’s white, when there’s no evidence of that. It’s just pure race mongering, hate mongering. It’s wrong.” Black man kills a white woman because she’s white and CNN defends the black guy. Mind blowing
More supposed “news networks” joined the bandwagon of the day largely tied to the trope of “republican’s pounce” to explain why the public generally seems outraged about the facts emerging on this near two-week old murder. Seemingly tone deaf to the fact that the guilt is in the mirror: none of them reported the story.
The bottom line truth on the matter is (1) most of us went several weeks before hearing anything about this murder (2) it has been demonstrably proven by data assessment resources (like MRC) that the LSMBTGA is not reporting these events when they run counter to a narrative (that seems like their narrative) (3) there have been a number of these incidents and murders where too much sympathy and attention is paid to the murderer and not to and for the victim.
I’m not offering up the conspiracy theory that the above is why Charlie Kirk was assassinated. My theme of cultural lunacy becoming disturbingly prevalent in America in the 21st century is based upon the pure irrationality of so many of these incidents, but moreso the reactions by the LSMBTGA and many Americans.
This is an all-star panel of nitwits reporting on Zarutska’s murder-oblivious to the fact that they are two weeks late to the reporting and featuring that utter fool Brian Stelter. That doesn’t stop them from being totally wrong with bogus takes about racism and government funding issues.
I predict we will see much worse reporting about Charlie Kirk’s assassination. After United Health insurance CEO Brian Thompson was assassinated tens of thousands of people expressed sympathy for his killer. From the piece:
The Network Contagion Research Institute at Rutgers University identified thousands of similar posts on X within hours of the killing. The posts, which could have been viewed by more than 8.3 million accounts, garnered 180,000 likes and 24,400 reposts, according to the institute.
A GiveSendGo page established for Thompson’s assassin exceeded 200K within mere weeks of being established.
Charlie Kirk’s assassination is a sad commentary on the state of politics in America today. The problem starts with our political leaders and trickles down through the ranks to the states, counties and cities where civil dialogue is increasingly impossible. We as a people are becoming terrible examples for our children and grandchildren with our potty mouths and seeming inability to have civil conversations.
There is too much celebration of violence in all its forms on social media and on television. Stupidity and violence sell far in excess of charitable work, spirituality, dignity, grace, acts of kindness and citizenship. We confuse mild disagreements with life or death issues. Road rage is on the verge of becoming a sport.
We like to be morally superior but can’t rise above everyday and ordinary disagreements. We don’t hold people accountable. We coddle criminals. We overlook crimes by people who aren’t even supposed to be in our country because we support them being here in defiance of our laws: and we get mad at those who state that what is so, is so.
We celebrate and mourn the death of criminals and fail to react and respond when criminals kill our citizens. Many in positions of power seem only too willing to treat things like pedophilia as just another crime.
Speaking of congress they near delaminated today over a simple prayer for somebody-Charlie Kirk-who has risen to tremendous stature in the political spectrum-starting from humble roots, jumping into the arena, broadcasting a clear message, not afraid to spread the message of truth and god and family and what is right-and what is wrong-about America in 2025.
God bless him and his young family.
May congress reflect on this assassination-this act of terrorism-and not get distracted by the arrow and focus on the archer and the environment that many have created and promoted that encourages these sick rat basswiches to go crazy over politics.
They are off to a terrible start…from the piece:
The House of Representatives burst into chaos as Speaker Mike Johnson attempted to lead a prayer for Charlie Kirk after he was shot dead in Utah on Wednesday.
Father-of-two Kirk, 31, the founder of Turning Point USA, a conservative youth organization that regularly hold events on college campuses nationwide, was shot in the neck at an event at Utah Valley University in Orem and died about two and half hours later.
His assassination not only devastated many members of Congress who knew the activist personally, but unleashed sadness, confusion and anger among lawmakers in the Capitol on both sides of the political spectrum.
‘Political violence must be called out,’ Johnson said in a statement about an hour after the shooting.
‘We need everyone who has a platform to say this loudly and clearly: we can settle disagreements and disputes in a civil manner.’
He then went inside and held a moment of silence for Kirk on the chamber floor as questions swirled about whether the father-of-two was alive or dead.
Following the somber moment of silence, Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., called out to Johnson to hold a moment of prayer for the 31-year-old.
That’s when things got ugly.
Some Democrats, clearly against the request for prayer, began cheering in unison ‘No!’
Also:
‘It’s devastating news,’ Johnson told reporters before the moment of silence. ‘The idea that political violence has taken one of the strongest voices on the conservative side is a great heartbreak.’
‘Charlie was a close friend of mine and a confidant, and he will be sorely missed, and we need every political leader to decry the violence and to do it loudly. The problem is in the human heart, and it’s gotten out of hand.’
What is next in this cultural lunacy?
