Comments

  1. Nina: This 20-something-year-old movement is still trying to figure itself out - too many extremes and not enough nuanced middle ground yet
  2. Milan: motivational speeches like this used to actually motivate people, now they just seem like cynical attempts at branding
  3. Irisboone: surprised to see Kirk getting such attention as a symbol of young conservatism when his brand is so closely tied to conspiracy theories and divisive rhetoric
  4. Noahsol: speakers like him used to get me pumped up too but now i'm not so sure
  5. Ninaholtxo: I still can't shake the feeling that there's more to this movement than its current leadership. Where are the next Kirk's, and what does that say about our priorities?
  6. Ruby: it's weird that charlie kirk's death is getting attention now - seems like his actual ideas, and the movement he represented, are what should be questioned
  7. Danebianchi: you think they'd reflect on their actual impact on the community, not just Charlie Kirk's influence. seems like damage control to me
  8. Cleob: I've lost count of how many people I've seen try to make Charlie Kirk's death into some kind of martyrdom for the conservative movement - and now a year later they're
  9. Brunoyang: I've been waiting to see what kind of ripple effect his death would have - now that we're past the shock I'm surprised to hear it's all still so internal-facing,
  10. Silent Sparrow: This profile is too focused on spectacle over substance
