As someone who has been actively keeping up with politics since being a young teen in 2015, Charlie Kirk was always the definition of “extreme far right” ideologies to me…WYM there are some people who think HE was too moderate??? I’m genuinely appalled

You have no idea how bad it really is do you? On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being an extremest, Charlie Kirk was a 6

I think Charlie Kirk is far right, there are just people who are off the scale. Kirk was essentially as far as you could go right while still being in the Overton window. Kirk, and all the right wing commentators’ goals are to push the conversation further and further right I mean look, by the rest of the world’s standards, both of our parties are right wing, as they’re both capitalist. We are the guys in the cave who only know the world as shadows on the wall.

He was an extremist but definitely not the most extreme he could’ve been

He never was. He’s always been the moderate speech and debate guy. If Charlie Kirk is a far right extremist so if half the country, and who would be the center right guy?

what’s an extremist to you bc no exception abortion even in the case of assault is pretty extreme

Kirk said the civil rights act was a mistake. Is that extreme?

There are people who want to do FAR WORSE than repeal the civil rights act

Calling the civil rights act a mistake, saying women shouldn’t have the same rights as men, saying queer people shouldn’t exist… those are all pretty extreme takes.

I’m genuinely curious bc this is SO crazy to wrap my head around…what are the “far worse” things people want past repealing civil rights and no exception abortion bans? To me that’s as regressive extremist as humanly possible

If someone says Hitler wasn’t extreme enough does that suddenly make him no longer extreme?

Look up Sam Hyde or Nick Fuentes. They make Charlie Kirk look like a neoliberal

Yes and Kirk gave those words power and allowed them to become normal in America. You can’t just jump straight into, there are steps.

Half the country agreeing with Charlie Kirk is so insane to me. Even republicans I’ve met all tend to talk about Kirk as an extremist. Calling him moderate is CRAZYY. A moderate center right is like Newsom and Biden imo

Just because there are other extremists doesn’t mean Charlie Kirk wasn’t ALSO an extremist. Bro was calling for public executions. Your logic is part of why the Overton window has shifted so far right.

The Overton window has been shifting left for 300 years. Conservatives now are more liberal than 20 years ago. If you consider Kirk extreme so is a vast majority of the planet in which case it’s not extremism.
