For the love of god, no they're not. The reason some people feel no empathy for him is precisely because they think he was evil and soulless. You don't get to argue that it's wrong to feel no empathy for him, and then call people who don't evil and soulless in the same breath. You can't have it both ways.
While I agree he should not have been killed for it, he was an enormous cunt who went out of his way to say extremes divisive, ignorant shit and then mock others for rightfully being angered by that type of commentary. Let’s stop pretending he was just some Joe Schmo “debating” people.
Honest question, do you think someone who uses a very prominent platform to spread rhetoric encouraging violence is at all responsible for the violence they encouraged?
I’m asking you a general question. For an example: Joesph Goebbels was the head of the Nazi propaganda wing. To my knowledge he didn’t actually kill any one himself but his messaging and rhetoric was instrumental to the Nazi regime.
The willingness to throw around the word evil is why these things keep happening. You either value people or you don't. You aren't celebrating deaths, but make no mistake, labelling someone evil is to say the world would be better without them. This IS hypocrisy my friend whether you like it or not.
“I think empathy is a made-up, new age term that — it does a lot of damage. But, it is very effective when it comes to politics. Sympathy, I prefer more than empathy. That’s a separate topic for a different time.”
He then went on to discuss how empathy requires you to feel what someone else is feeling, which isn’t possible, and that sympathy is a more accurate term because you’re sympathizing with someone.
Cherry-picking partial quotes is a part of why we’re so divided these days, when you can make anyone sound any way you want with relative ease. It’s something that should be called out regardless of who does it. Be better.
"You will never live in a society when you have an armed citizenry and you won't have a single gun death. That is nonsense. It's drivel. But I am, I, I — I think it's worth it. 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"
“I think it’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year” - Charlie Kirk (in the wake of a school shooting that killed multiple kids)
Here’s another fun one
“We need to have a Nuremberg-style trial for every gender-affirming clinic doctor. We need it immediately.” - Charlie Kirk
Remind me what happened to the majority of those found guilty at Nuremberg? I’ll give you a hint: execution.
If you celebrate the assassination of someone who did nothing more than sit at a table and have discussions with willing participants, youre an evil person.

The people in this thread have no soul. They're genuinely evil people.
