Charlie Kirk wasn't just a misogynist, racist, Christian nationalist, but a blathering anti-semite

I suppose I should preface this piece by noting that violence which isn’t bona fide self defense is outside the bounds of civilized, democratic behavior. This includes the murder of Charlie Kirk. Whatever the killer — allegedly Tyler Robinson — truly had in mind, that rifle-shot which took Kirk’s life has great potential not only to crush non-violent dissent but also arouse some version of the civil war certain people seem to be hankering for. The politicized wake that will take place at the State Farm Stadium next Sunday in Glendale, Arizona, may give us an idea of how this is going to play out. Will it be a “Nuremberg” moment as some have suggested? Or as big a failure as Donald Trump’s military parade?

I’ve been told that every left-of-center person knows about Kirk’s bigotry in detail. But in talking to friends and acquaintances over the past few days since his assassination, I’ve found that only a few of them were aware of the breadth and depth of that bigotry, combined with ignorance. And his anti-semitic remarks have for the most part not made it into the media in the post-assassination stories and commentaries. They should get wider circulation. Thanks to Brad Johnson at Hill Heat, here’s a collection of some of Kirk’s greatest anti-semitic hits: </p>

“Jews are experiencing the hate that we white people have been experiencing the last decade, and we’ve been warning against.”

“Jewish donors, they have a lot of explaining to do. Jewish donors have been the No. 1 funding mechanism of radical open-border, neoliberal, quasi-Marxist policies, cultural institutions and nonprofits. This is a beast created by secular Jews and now they’re coming for Jews, and they’re like, ‘What on Earth happened?’ And it’s not just the colleges. It’s the nonprofits, it’s the movies, it’s Hollywood, it’s all of it.”

“Jewish communities have been pushing the exact kind of hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them.”

“It is true that some of the largest financiers of left-wing anti-white causes have been Jewish Americans.”

“Jews have been some of the largest funders of cultural Marxist ideas and supporters of those ideas over the last 30 or 40 years... Until you cleanse that ideology from the hierarchy in the academic elite of the west, there will not be a safe future.”

“It is wrong and repulsive to call a great man, Elon Musk, an antisemite.”
