The Left Are Losing Influence After Charlie Kirk's Assassination

The fallout from Charlie Kirk’s assassination was swift, and it is telling that the radical left does not seem to understand that they themselves are the problem. On TikTok, voices from the radical left continue to insist that Charlie Kirk was a racist and a fascist. However, more apolitical individuals who have taken the time to look into him for themselves often conclude that much of what the left has claimed about him was false. When centrists and politically unaffiliated people investigate independently, the result is simply a clearer revelation of the truth.

Charlie Kirk was neither a fascist nor a racist. He was a center-right populist with strong Christian convictions. When the left attempts to discredit his legacy with hostile rhetoric, they end up undermining their own message. Increasingly, the radical left’s online narratives are losing credibility, particularly among young people who are beginning to recognize the dishonesty. One can only spread so many falsehoods about entire groups of people before the deception collapses under its own weight, and it seems the left has overplayed its hand.
