They want to justify killing you.
No really, it's as simple as that.
Yes, that is mega-successful horror author Stephen King saying that Charlie Kirk "advocated stoning gays to death" as justification for his murder.
His post was so outrageous that sitting members of Congress called publicly for a lawsuit over the statement.
What King did is frame an ideological opponent as the most extreme example of a straw man. Either unknowingly or purposely, he lied about who Kirk is in order to better justify the shedding of blood. If this was not the case, then woke men like Stephen King would have some level of congruity in their worldview. Instead, their beliefs are so screwed up that they accuse normal American dudes of wanting to stone gays while also supporting the people who actually do want to stone gays.
As many people have said in the last 48 hours, Kirk was the moderate option. His entire mission was to have dialogue with people who disagree because the moment a nation stops talking, national divorce is inevitable.
As for Kirk's views on gays, please stare directly at this and tell me if it lines up with Stephen King's version of reality:
It should be shocking to see such a willful misrepresentation of who Kirk was. And yet, across the Western world, everyone from local schoolteachers to BBC newscasters have lied and lied and lied some more about a man who was shot in front of a crowd of people, including his own wife and kids.
For years, the Left has compared normal, average American men and women to Nazis and their leaders to Hitler. They do it daily. They whip themselves into a frenzy, reassuring their compatriots that they are fighting against fascism.
The outcome of such rhetoric is baked into the cake. It always has been. Kirk's assassination was simply the outpouring of a single, focused wish:
To kill you, your family, and everyone like you. Have you forgotten that they went crazy in July because of a simple Sydney Sweeney jeans ad?
If you haven't noticed, they hate a British feminist who wrote a children's series about good fighting evil because she doesn't want men in the women's bathroom.
J.K. Rowling nails it: The people arguing with her are not interested in being tolerant, open-minded, welcoming, or finding common ground so that we can move forward together.
They want to conquer and kill, but they need to dehumanize you in order to sear their consciences for the job.
In the wake of this assassination, many people are trying to cool the temperature. Many people are calling for peace and unity. The impulse is good, but lambs cannot have peace with wolves that want to kill them.
Have you ever heard that ancient children's tale?
Calling for a superficial "peace" when people are rightfully hurt is also unjust and unkind. Per Jeremiah 6:14:
They dress the wound of my people as though it were not serious. ‘Peace, peace,' they say, when there is no peace.
We do need to have unity. We do need to find common ground. We need to pray and encourage each other and welcome each other.
But this unity cannot include those who want to kill us. Have the same people saying we need to go back to 2012 forgotten that in 2012, those people labelled Mitt Romney, perhaps the most liberal Republican in the Senate, an extremist who wanted to put black people "back in chains" and left people destitute with cancer by shutting down a steel plant?
In this way, Kirk's murder actually provides us with a roadmap and a litmus test toward unity. As Kirk himself said years ago:
Anyone who sees Kirk's assassination as an abject evil and mourns his death despite any philosophical differences is an ally. Anyone caught celebrating his death or justifying it by claiming he was a fascist cannot be an ally.
Put aside the labels of Republican and Democrat or the 200-year-old understanding of "Left" and "Right" in Western politics. Kirk's death serves as another milestone in a transition to a different kind of political divide entirely.
Can you live among people who believe and vote differently from you? Do you want to see the best for people you don't particularly like, or at the bare minimum, not wish pain and suffering on them?
Then welcome! Glad to have you!
“We do need to have unity. We do need to find common ground. We need to pray and encourage each other and welcome each other.”
No! We need to be separate.
You’ve read his books but didn’t buy them . . . so you’ll know what I mean when I say King made his remarks from the bar of the Overlook Hotel after a long, long talk with the bartender, Lloyd.
😁..............
Why Oct 14?
Charlie Kirk murder is proof that Democrats will put anyone who disagrees with then in a death camp.
They just killed the one person willing to have a discussion.
The time for talking is past....................
BOOKMARK
Maxine Waters has also:
"Called for public opposition to members of the Trump administration over its 'zero tolerance' immigration policy, urging citizens to make it known that cabinet members were not welcome in public spaces. At a rally in Los Angeles, she declared, “Let’s make sure we show up wherever we have to show up, and if you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd and you push back on them and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere”
Absolutely an incitement to violence, especially for her low IQ/low information constituents, supporters and voters, and there are a lot of them.
King is a perpetual adolescent. The motivation for his entire body of work is revenge on people he feel picked on him in high school. Virtually all of his work is themed around the nerdish picked on person exacting revenge. When he got hit by the car this complex was strengthened by resentment and hatred against the driver which he personified and projected onto conservatives.
He’s obsessed with adolescent pursuits in his book. Cars, bullies, prepubescent girls and boys. Wouldn’t surprise me one bit if he is a pedo.
It is his birthday.
Typical democrat party commie tactic. “Silence is violence.” “Speech is violence” “whiteness is violence” . they set up impossible standards that justify their own murderous violence to outright kill their opposition AND feel good about it.
OK. I thought it would be something like that.
