"The ground has shifted. It doesn't exist anymore." [TRANSCRIPT of historian's 4 min video analysis of public reaction to Charlie Kirk's assassination]
x.COM ^ | September 11, 2025 | @shipwreck quoting TikTok @thatthingIdo

[H/T grey_whiskers]

Below, X.com account @ShipWreck has posted two brief video clips, approximately 4 minutes in combined length, from a student of US History posting on TikTok regarding the public's responses to the murder of Charlie Kirk. Basically, she's analyzing the public response for clues which, historically, would indicate the direction the country is moving.

It looks like the original Part 1 and Part 2 video clips were created by @thathingIdo on TikTok. TRANSCRIPT BELOW THE IMAGE.

September 11, 2025

~~~~~TRANSCRIPT BEGINS~~~~~~

Part 1 is 2:13

https://x.com/shipwreckshow/status/1966248255618179173/video/1

I've said it before and I'll say it again. 

I've had too much education and too much training to ever see historical events the same way other people do. 

I'm a PHd student of American History maintaining a 4.0. I'm not watching the event; I'm watching the public. 

I'm watching the peoples' reaction to the event because that's going to determine what happens next. Here's the pattern I've observed. 

The initial response to the assassination of Charlie Kirk was celebration in the streets. There were people standing on street corners holding signs. There were individuals who were coming all over Social Media cheering, clapping. They were dancing with disco party lights in the background.

It was a national celebration that someone had been assassinated. Historically speaking, national celebrations of the assassination of political rivals does not go well. 
Historically speaking, it doesn't go well. 

And very shortly after that, within an hour, the dominating discussion became a condemnation of those celebrations, with many people feeling like something has flipped.

Some fuse has been lit. Nobody knows what's coming. Nobody knows what's happened. There's a feeling that something has turned. 

As somebody who has studied history, you're right; something has been lit. Nobody knows what it's attached to yet. 

Nobody knows where this is going to go, but something has been lit as it always does when you have national celebrations of political assassinations. 

Over the next several days, even weeks, I will be looking for additional patterns to emerge, because there are patterns that you can follow. There are things that pop up that let you know just what exactly is coming. 

And that's what I am going to be watching for. The rollback and the illogical fallacy arguments have already begun from the celebrators and the individuals who supported their celebrations.

But even with that rollback, it's not enough to stop the momentum that has started on the side of those who find the celebrations abhorrent. 

You should be paying attention, because the next few days are going to be really interesting. 

PART 2 (TikTok video) 1:42 https://x.com/shipwreckshow/status/1966248255618179173/video/2

What I'm watching right now is to see where we are in the arc of escalation. 

Interestingly there's a pattern in history where there's a 20 to 30 year buildup of grievance before there ends up being a major revolution or an assassination. In this country we've had 20 to 30 years of grievance. 

We had children raised up under the grievances of their parents, and now they have what's called an 'inherited grievance.' 

Where their parents will tolerate the injustice that they see, the children will not tolerate it, and they are more likely to engage in much more physical and violent manners to be able to change the world because the grievance is their entire life. It becomes their identity.

 Those who initially celebrated the assassination have not only clawed back their initial celebration, but they are also de-legitimizing the event itself. 

This is because a counter-shift has occurred. A targeted group is no longer tolerating, and is making a shift to retaliate. 

The group that was celebrating, the initing group, is now trying to de-escalate the situation by drawing the conversation back to where the initial political grounds used to be, but the ground has shifted; it doesn't exist anymore. 

So what's happening now, in this particular arc, is we're looking at a legitimacy crisis, and I am specifically checking to see whether or not the initiating group, the ones who celebrated, are able to establish legitimacy again. 

If they can survive, if they can find their footing again, this event will be sanitized to be able to preserve them long-term. 

And if they can't, this will accelerate.

~~~~~~~TRANSCRIPT ENDS~~~~~~

I have had my reactions...
Sadness...
Tears...
Anger...
Frustration...
And repulsiveness...

Now for the course of action...
These people are everywhere, in our government, in our schools, in our libraries.
They need to be removed.
Let’s remove them.
Primaries, recalls, demands to have them fired.
The former main stream demo are leaving the party.
Welcome them and enlist their support.
This ends now.
My tagline comes into play.

Amir Tsarfati said this some time ago.

“Based on all that I know, September is likely to bring what can best be described as a political tsunami.
October will, in turn, mark the military one.
Without intending to sound overly sensational, these 60 days will profoundly shape the world.”

She makes sense except I don’t see the left trying to draw back
I see them in full hate more than ever

I agree. I don't see them pulling back. Her analysis is very interesting, but any such analysis depends on which source material you see, and which material you do not see. I guess she is accessing some sources where the Left is drawing back. But I see plenty of material where they are ramping it up and calling for more blood.

I do think her overall point is good though -- if the Left cannot sanitize this, their legitimacy is just gone. And, really, how the hell can you sanitize this??

There are many Amir imposters, but if you go to his Behold Israel website there he posts links to his authentic feeds.

I follow those.

I’m very cautious these days about following random links to things he or Jack Hibbs have been saying. Too many opportunists misrepresenting what they say and too many AI generated fakes.

“Interestingly there’s a pattern in history where there’s a 20 to 30 year buildup of grievance before there ends up being a major revolution or an assassination.“

I guess if I had known the above I’d have been dead on in my prediction back in 1995 that this country will be in civil war in, as I said then, 20 to 25 years. 1995 is when I began saying it out loud to others. I was surprised at how many agreed.

Apparently they have learned nothing! There is still people in position of power all across this nation who are still calling us vile names. Regardless if the ground shift or not they started it we will finish it! Wait until next week when pictures of Kirk’s widow is crying over his casket. It’s only beginning! We must destroy them we have no other choice. They will come for us again they will not stop until they have taken out all of us. I see Omar still has her position in Congress. Evil never takes the day off! And neither should we!

She is referring to the Trans mafia, and all the filthy scumbags in the media like MSNBC.

They were the ones gloating and celebrating the execution of Charlie Kirk. The leftwing pukes didn’t even have the decency to let normal people mourn Kirk’s death without kicking sand in America’s face.

I tell you now, President Trump is just itching to take out ANTIFA. The major media conglomerates (Warner Bros Discovery, Comcast, Disney, Paramount Skydance) have been put on notice, it’s no longer going to be business as usual.

The democrat party (and it’s subversive leaders) are also aware. You notice how they are laying low. No announcements from the Clinton’s, the Biden’s, Chuck Schumer, James Carville, etc. because all their heads are on the chopping block. The powder keg is about to explode. Which one of them will ignite it?

The more Leftists celebrate, the more they reveal exactly who and what they are.

Most people do not like what they see and are fed up with the madness.

Men and women are biologically programmed to behave the way they do, and the vast majority like it the way it is. It is fundamental to the human reproductive system, which along with survival is one of the most basic of human instincts. It is deeply ingrained in human DNA with origins eons ago in our most remote primordial ancestors.

Part of the reproductive system is the desire for a stable home and society in which to raise safe and healthy children, who will grow to adulthood and reproduce.

Most people do not like interferences with this natural order.

Though most people tend to be tolerant, the reproductive instinct is far more powerful and fundamental.

Most people are fed up with the foolishness, mendacity, hate, and instability of the Left and their threats to home and family. The insanity has reached the point at which most people are no longer willing to tolerate it.

“The pinnacle perhaps was Abraham Lincoln’s second inaugural address towards the end of the civil war, in which he sought to “bind up the nation’s wounds” and made a point of striving for unity “with malice toward none, with charity for all”.

That pinnacle came AFTER a war that claimed 600000 lives.

Those who initially celebrated the assassination have not only clawed back their initial celebration...

Probably not...The important thing to remember when dealing with lefties is their inability to control their emotions. This is the central factor in the manipulation of the Rat/Rino voting public. Collectivists like Carter, the Clintons, Obama, Biden etc. play emotional voters like they are stradivarii. IMO, Charlie Kirk's murder is more indication of how deep the rot goes, as were the attempts on Trump.
