Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Wednesday, September 17, 2025

Ryan Adamczeski, The Advocate: Since his death, [Charlie] Kirk has been praised for how he engaged in political debate -- but his legacy is not one of honest discourse. Kirk built his brand by demonizing LGBTQ+ people and other minorities, frequently spreading disinformation about transgender people and gender-affirming care.

"praised for how he engaged in political debate"

Charlie Kirk did not debate. He did crowd work. No moderator, he controlled the mic, a heavily prepared 31 year old vs random college students responding to the verbal equivalent of clickbait.

Charlie Kirk did one debate, at Oxford, against professionals with a moderator. He got his ass kicked, badly.

To be fair, libs do it to. I mean showing the dumbest people in the country, who happen to be Republicans.

The ones who blame Obama for 911 and can't point to Europe on a map.

There's just so many. No shortage on either side.

What did Kirk say?
Nothing worth remembering.
Nothing out of what was for him the ordinary.
Just his usual bigoted, twisted sheet.
He and it will not weather well.
Unless, like MAGAts, you desperately need a Horst Wessel stand-in.
Oompah, oompah ...

I just realized that for all the praise of him, I never see a direct quote or reference.

Nobody wants to see someone get fatally shot.

Nobody in their right mind wants to hear the words of a smooth-talking bigot, misogynist and religious hypocrite.

Everyone should read--and reject--this guy's filthy words...

Maybe Sitz can tell us all what happens to a body when it gets hit by 30.06.
