Charlie Kirk in his own words:




ON RACE:



 “If I see a black pilot, I’m going to be like, boy, I hope he’s qualified.”– The Charlie Kirk Show, January 23rd, 2024 

 “If you’re a WNBA, pot-smoking, black lesbian, do you get treated better than a United States marine?” – The Charlie Kirk Show, December 8th, 2022

 “Happening all the time in urban America, prowling blacks go around for fun to go target white people, that’s a fact. It’s happening more and more.” – The Charlie Kirk Show, May 19th, 2023

 “If I’m dealing with somebody in customer service who’s a moronic black woman, I wonder is she there because of her excellence, or is she there because affirmative action?” – The Charlie Kirk Show, January 3rd, 2024

 “If we would have said that Joy Reid and Michelle Obama and Sheila Jackson Lee and Ketanji Brown Jackson were affirmative action picks, we would have been called racists. Now they’re coming out and they’re saying it for us ... You do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken really seriously. You had to go steal a white person’s slot to go be taken somewhat seriously.” – The Charlie Kirk Show, July 13th, 2023



 ON DEBATE:

 “We record all of it so that we put [it] on the internet so people can see these ideas collide. When people stop talking, that’s when you get violence. That’s when civil war happens, because you start to think the other side is so evil, and they lose their humanity.” – Kirk discussing his work in an undated clip that circulated on X after his killing. 



 
ON GENDER AND REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS:


 “Reject feminism. Submit to your husband, Taylor. You’re not in charge.” – Discussing news of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s engagement on The Charlie Kirk Show, August 26th, 2025

 “The answer is yes, the baby would be delivered.”– Responding to a question about whether he would support his 10-year-old daughter aborting a pregnancy conceived because of rape on the debate show Surrounded, published on September 8th, 2024

 “We need to have a Nuremberg-style trial for every gender-affirming clinic doctor. We need it immediately.” – The Charlie Kirk Show, April 1st, 2024



ON GUN VIOLENCE:

 “I think it’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the second amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational.” – Event organised by TPUSA Faith, the religious arm of Kirk’s conservative group Turning Point USA, on April 5th, 2023



ON IMMIGRATION:

 “America was at its peak when we halted immigration for 40 years and we dropped our foreign-born percentage to its lowest level ever. We should be unafraid to do that.” – The Charlie Kirk Show, August 22nd, 2025

 “The American Democrat party hates this country. They wanna see it collapse. They love it when America becomes less white.” – The Charlie Kirk Show, March 20th, 2024

 “The great replacement strategy, which is well under way every single day in our southern border, is a strategy to replace white rural America with something different.” – The Charlie Kirk Show, March 1st, 2024

 “Islam is the sword the left is using to slit the throat of America.” – Charlie Kirk social media post, September 8th, 2025



ON RELIGION:

 “There is no separation of church and state. It’s a fabrication, it’s a fiction, it’s not in the constitution. It’s made up by secular humanists.” – The Charlie Kirk Show, July 6th, 2022

Kirk: Bigot. White Supremacist. Racist. Misogynist. Trained Divider. Extraordinaire. A perfect match with the authoritarian fascist FOTUS.

Shaw... we should add another quote to the atmosphere surrounding Kirk. It's that of White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller. Here's what he had to say after Kirk's shooting...

“There is an ideology that has steadily been growing in this country which hates everything that is good, righteous and beautiful and celebrates everything that is warped, twisted and depraved.”

This ideology he claims has “one unifying thread... the insatiable thirst for destruction.”

“It is an ideology that leads, always, inevitably and willfully, to violence... The fate of millions depends on the defeat of this wicked ideology.”

I know a lot of lefties, progressives and Dems. I also know a lot of MAGA folks, conservatives and what would now be called former Republicans.

Lots of those folks may be right, or wrong. But to a person, they all want what's best for America, even if they are misguided.

However the folks, like Miller and yes, Kirk are working overtime to demonize and eliminate an entire group of ppl, people like Grey, you, me and others here.

Now I get it, the -FJ's of the world will respond with "Y tu David?", but it's a false equivalency. Because people like us are critical of ideas and the logical implications of policies from people like Miller. We're not saying "white people", like us, don't have a place in America, as Kirk does towards minorties and people of color. We're not advocating the wholesale destruction of rural America as Miller and Kirk claim.

What political party pushed for investment in rural hospitals? What political party pushed to spend billions of dollars on infrastructure in red America? What party is mostly responsible for access to medicaid for senior citizens? What party is responsible for access to health care and survivor benefits for coal miner's families in rural states?

It sure as heck is not the GOP of Trump, or for that matter, GW Bush.

The charges, slanders and BS this crowd of Neo Republicans, the ones who will not denounce political violence, white supremacy or even the Neo Nazis among us are demonstrably false.

Do they love America? Of course they do. But their ideas and prescriptions for the future are wrong and will do untold damage to our country. Both the red and blue states.
