Who’s Next? Bluesky Posters Call for Deaths of Prominent Republicans, Conservative Media Figures
American Greatness ^ | 12 Sep, 2025 | AG Staff

Posted on 09/13/2025 6:11:19 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Following the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk at a campus event in Orem, Utah on Wednesday, a number of users on the Bluesky app are calling for the deaths of other prominent figures on the right.

The New York Post reports that a slew of Bluesky users have posted calls for the deaths of Tesla founder Elon Musk, President Donald Trump, author J.K. Rowling and conservative commentators Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh and Michael Knowles.

Screenshots capture the deranged threats ranging from violent language to outright suggestions as to who should be taken out next.

BlueSky has become an ordering service for assassinations.

The @FBI

@SecretService

@DHSgov should start investigations and shut this stuff down.

People should not live in fear for speaking the truth.🐱 Quote RealK12Lioness✨🇺🇸💫 @RealK12Lioness · Sep 11 Replying to @ShadowofEzra Check this out... On the "Sky App."

Bluesky issued a warning to some of its users on Thursday that they were violating the social media platform community guidelines following numerous posts celebrating Kirk’s murder.

Those guidelines state that violent or threatening speech are not permitted, including “encouragement of violence against individuals, groups, institutions or the general public.”

Bluesky guidelines also prohibit wishes of harm, including expressions of a desire for harm directed at a specific person or group.

The social media app, created by former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, has become a sanctuary for progressives, in the wake of Elon Musk’s renovation of Twitter as X and following Trump’s win in 2024.

Bluesky has approximately 1.5 million daily users, according to data compiled by the platform.

Other notable influencers on the right are also being targeted, including Libs of TikTok founder Chaya Raichik, Andy Ngo, Christopher Rufo and Benny Johnson.

The platform had faced criticism earlier this summer after far-left extremists posted threats against federal officers and agents and sought personal information regarding their families and home addresses.

The New York Post confirmed that some of the posts had been taken down as of Thursday evening.

Meanwhile other social media platforms, including Meta YouTube, Discord and Reddit have taken measures to restrict content related to Kirk’s murder.

Those measures include flagging graphic content as well as removing posts celebrating Kirk’s death or restricting access to the content by younger users.

Considering that Parler was taken down decisively for allowing Q-related posts questioning the integrity of the 2020 election, why should these other platforms get a pass on open calls for literal bloodshed?

There now exists a huge crop of losers in this country that are spiraling down into the abyss of nihilism and anarchy. The sad part of this is that the public does not see or understand that we, as taxpayers, are funding this choreographed Communist demise taking place by home grown, trained operatives - trained color revolutionary Marxist in the CIA and more broadly across the Intelligence Community. No one, including Congress and the President seems to be able to get to the bottom of this corrupt internal cancer. We have seen enough of this MKUltra handiwork by now with recruited patsies to understand what’s going on, unless we are so dumbed down we are into fooling ourselves and feigning ignorance.

Leftists are cowards. They shoot and run away so there won’t be any gun battle. They’re like the mafia who slash your throat when you have your back turned.

Given the reality of the ‘Dead Internet Theory’ how many of these ‘people’ are actually people? Not saying to ignore it, just to take this idiotic world of social media with a several grains of salt.

I’m ready for them! Swam in the Tn River and rescued some guns and a few thousand rounds. Come try to start some violence against me or my neighbors and we’ll be ready!

She’s stepped off the plantation.

That’s why they hate her.

Reminds me of the genesis of the Reign of Terror of the French Revolution. At first, political differences between moderates and radicals, spilling over into violence, then thousands of French citizens being hauled to the guillotine. This went on all day long with crowds cheering the deaths of ordinary citizens.
The atmosphere here is very ugly and could easily go one way or the other.

Going after JK Rowling proves they don’t just hate conservative, they hate anyone who strays from their narrative.

As JK Rowling herself wrote the other day:

If you believe free speech is for you but not your political opponents, you’re illiberal.

If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you’re a fundamentalist.

If you believe the state should punish those with contrary views, you’re a totalitarian.

If you believe political opponents should be punished with violence or death, you’re a terrorist.

The Nazis, Lenin, Stalin, Castro, Pol Pot, the Kim’s in North Korea and other totalitarians also engaged in political assassination of those who opposed their ideology.

Aside from not wanting fake men in women’s spaces JK is 100% leftist. But that’s all it takes with these loonies.

This is the most prosperous era in human history. It is criminal that so many people have been propagandized into believing the opposite.

This is not just rhetoric. They are serious.

Agree. Sadly, we are at war.

Psalm 144:1 - "Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight".

These people are going to have to be found, and things are going to have to be done. Or it won’t stop.

Nope. A lot of Nazi’s were highly intelligent. These thugs don’t share that trait at all. They are just dumb, violent, lazy POS who want to control other people and take what others have earned. And while praying for our country is great and good, prayer won’t repel these bastards.

Detain every one of them, bring them in for lengthy questioning, hold them in the D.C. gulag for a few months each. There’s precedent for keeping them as long as possible.
Even if they’re not found guilty of anything, let the process be the punishment. Equal treatment.
