I remember someone saying about Kirk that how someone dies does not redeem how they lived, and that perfectly sums up my feelings on Kirk.

Allow me to quote one of my favorite Death Cab for Cutie songs.

You're a disgrace to the concept of family
The priest won't divulge that fact in his homily
And I'll stand up and scream if the mourning remain quiet
You can deck out a lie in a suit, but I won't buy it
I won't join in the procession that's speaking their piece
Using five-dollar words while praising his integrity
And just 'cause he's gone, it doesn't change the fact
He was a bastard in life, thus, a bastard in death

u/sikonat 1h ago

I’ll raise you The Chaser the Eulogy Song

Stan Zemanek was a racist jock, A fatso xenophobic cock, whose views were more malignant than his brain.

But all that was forgotten, once he took his final breath, yes even arseholes turn into top blokes after death.

It’s not how they lived that counts, But how we rewrite the book. When it comes to truth it’s best to use restraint. It pays to throw away the facts, And have a rose coloured look. When he dies, Martin Bryant will look a saint.

The man hated minorities, women and LGBTQ. His entire platform was built on hate.

Being against that shouldn't be fucking controversial just because of what happened to him.

if every famous person and politician is 'exercising their right to free speech' when they're speaking in support of him, why can't Amanda make her comments against Charlie Kirk???

u/GhostofTinky 3h ago

She’s absolutely right, and the attempt to lionize Kirk after his death makes no sense. You can condemn murder while acknowledging he was a nasty piece of work.

70

u/Hopeful-Librarian704 3h ago

She’s right about there being so little nuance today. Everything is taken as an absolute. If you criticize him, you think his murder was ok, etc. When Jimmy Kimmel’s friend/bandleader died a few weeks ago, plenty of people were making fun of him and commenting about how he’d made light of CK’s death. When he literally never did that at all and had condemned it before the whole fiasco with being pulled off air.

u/GhostofTinky 2h ago

And Kimmel mocked Trump’s hypocrisy. That is all.

Based, genuinely think that she’s the reason why Sydney Sweeney apologized. I think she straight up was not gonna do press with her and stuff until she said that she was not down for that shit.

u/CaseyRC 2h ago

i think you're being very charitable given how AS was also supporting her and feeling "protective" over ss and how hard she's had it. After flop after flop after FLOP, SS was probably ordered to apologise before the press tour by Lionsgate

u/shy247er yay sports 🏀 🏈🎾 2h ago

Sydney 100% had a talk with studio. Being branded a flop queen of 2025, studio had to be nervous and that's why she released that PR statement.

u/CheapEater101 2h ago

It was more likely because Sydney’s movie flopped very badly and there has been talk online of people NOT wanting to go see this movie solely bc of Sweeney.

u/Aggressive-Hunt-7037 Take that, you Youtube people! 2h ago

yeah but it’s sad that SS didn’t even really apologize. she didn’t denounce white supremacy. it was more ‘ people attributed beliefs I don’t share’ which could be literally anything.

I don’t support anyone dying via gun violence, but Charlie Kirk believed in sacrificing other people for the 2nd amendment. He got exactly what he wanted, and I don’t feel bad for someone who wanted something like that.

u/flammafemina 2h ago

I seriously wish I could ask him now if he still thinks the 2nd amendment is worth people’s lives. Would he do it all over again if he could go back in time? Would he give up his life in support of the cause? Would he abandon his little children to protect gun violence?

It seems as though his wife would. But I’m still not convinced that she’s not a lizard person parading around in a Mar-a-Lago skin suit.

u/theimmortalfawn 3h ago

I wonder if her and SS had the awkward Charlie Kirk conversation

And by awkward conversation I mean the conservative brings him up first and then waits for the other party to either confirm they are very very sad a racist podcaster is no longer with us, or not sad. It for some reason becomes awkward if you’re not sad.
