Genuine question
I can’t believe this is how I found out he got shot lmao
Same! Finally some good news!
Why do you think political violence is good? Isn’t it a sign of a failing state?
One could say that the state was failing pretty hard during the french revolution as well
Definitely but the US current situation and struggle is not at all like French Revolution. “The aristocrats”(aka the rich) are the ones who lead this, any change won’t be for the good of the people, just money changing hands. Looks more like the fall of Roman Republic to me with common people suffering and the state becoming more authoritarian.
We passed “failing state” quite some time ago.
Yeah I’m not sure he’s dead yet, but the shot was pretty on point.
I looked around after hearing about it and several sources confirmed his death not long ago.
To steal a quote from that Scottish granny commenting on Thatcher’s death: they ought to put a string of garlic around his neck and a stake in his heart to make sure he doesn’t come back.
Has someone checked on Pitt the Elder to make sure he’s still buried?
Reuters reporting his death now. Suspect not yet apprehended.
Given the footage, it would be a miracle if he survived - that’s a severe amount of blood loss within seconds.
It appears he was not loved by all.
Whelp, not enough prayers. Can’t be helped.
Wherever the shooter is I pray he is safe and well.
There was no shooter. The universe decided to throw a bullet at Charlie Kirk.
He’s dead
It looked like a shot right in the jugular. Even if EMT’s were sitting right next to him, it’s incredibly unlikely to survive that.
Judging by the weird way his head lolled back I’m pretty sure it severed his spine too. Double whammy. Dude was dead before he knew what hit him.
Well…that’s a pity.
His arms went into something of a fencing response too. Body only does that when you are fucked in the nervous system. Usually for TBIs though so not sure if that’s how it works for spinal dmg.
More likely the carotid artery since it sprayed.
Saw the video, pretty sure he is fucked. Quite a bit of blood spurting from the neck
It’s been confirmed within the last hour.
He didnt. Staged, crisis actor.
Took a nap before he died, woke up to find out he got blasted. Quite the surprise!
I can’t believe it was this comment how I found out.
Has anyone (in Utah) asked: What was he wearing when this happened to him????????
I mean he was asking for it
The tent over his head actually had the text: “Prove Me Wrong”
git gud
and his shirt said FREEDOM
Exposing his neck just like that?! That’s just asking for trouble.
When will these neck sluts learn…
Bro wore white to his assassination, daring choice
Right after Labour day too.
He probably didn’t even thanked the merc.
a shirt that said FREEDOM
literally advocating for somebody to exercise their freedom and do this
Needs more gums.
Never noticed the resemblance until now.

Prayers Up for the big man. He died debating and he shall be rewarded by spending eternity in Debate Valhalla, rising to Debate every day for eternity.
“Do you know how many mass shooters there have been in America over the last 10 years?” one audience member asked Kirk.
“Counting or not counting gang violence,” he replied before being cut off by the gunshot.
What a legend
He shall first debate Plato, that’ll make him miserable right quick and will go on for a millennium. What is a chair?
What do you mean by “what”?
Oh wait I was thinking of that Canadian crybaby’s debate tactic.
Okay. I accept your first assumption. What is a chair. Why do ducks’ quacks echo but their farts don’t
Is that literally the last thing that happened before the shot?
Please tell me it’s true
Edit: it’s fucking true
It’s almost too perfect. He was trying to turn a genuine question on gun violence into racist rhetoric, and then got immediately snapped…
Was probably feeling pretty smug with how he spun that until his neck popped.
yes, his last word was violence. apt.
You know what would do this justice? We all gaslight the GOP into saying this is fake news. That it’s AI. That he’s completely fine but in a bunker somewhere for his safety.
In fact…this is what’s true.
No way that a shot would show this much blood, especially against a white hetero man. This has woke AI written all over it.
People are saying that the crowd was full of crisis actors
Did you see that timing? On the video? From the csmera that was rolling? It all looks way too produced.
Utah Valley University isn’t even a real place.
U tah? You cannot convince me it’s not made up
Watta Utah talka
US students are so desensitize to gun shots, they wouldn’t have run away.
In 6 months Kash will tell us it was suicide and the video was AI.
“If something happens that’s really bad, I might just have to blame AI”- Donald Trump, September 2nd, 2025
Love this. Give it right back to them.
Why is his face to small for his head?
forgot to turn off bighead mode before entering pvp zone
Compensate for his new hole
Its why he got hit in the neck, his head was too small
deleted by creator
His lungs were definitely not full of blood.
i know, i made the meme before i saw the video
Seems like he lost a gun debate
He brought words to a gun fight
Curious
I am very smart
simpsons did it in, uh, 1999
Curious.

false flag attack to get people off Trump’s back about Epstein files?
He can have one day off for each famous right wing speaker merc’ed
Eventually Death comes for Donny.
If so I say we should keep bringing up the epstein files in the hopes more fascists get shot
Hell of a distraction.
Release the trumpstein files.
Charlie Kirk’s shooting was an inside job by Trump to take focus off Epstein files!!
See, I said that sarcastically but with the republicans… this is actually quite likely. So who knows. lol.
I’m not say you are 100% correct. Also, not saying you are 100% wrong. Somewhere in the middle lay the answer to this conundrum. Probably the most obvious scenario is going to end up the culprit. Charlie Kirk is dead. A brief moment passes, “Ok sir, now about those Epstein files being released. How are we looking with that?
Holy fuck
You’ll say holy fuck if you see the front row video. I’ll only warn you once.
I was saying holy fuck because this was how I found out and I’ll skip watching the video because I’ve seen enough live leak from like 2008 to 2016 to satisfy any grotesque need for me to see somebody getting murdered for the rest of my life.
It was pretty mild compared to the shit you might’ve seen on LiveLeak tbh.
I remember seeing a video called “unnecessarily slow beheading” there. After that, uh, seeing a stranger get shot just seems so mundane. It’s fucked.
I watched it ten times and I’ll probably watch it another 10 later tonight while sipping a nice Merlot.
Yehhhh I have no idea how peeps are so fucked up by the vid, as a frequenter of eyeblech and nsfl__ when they existed. This is a breath of fresh air (blood?) in a world of horrible things happening to people who don’t deserve it
I wont lie, I watched the Saddam Hussein video like 2 years after the execution happened.
I’m a true-blue-center-of-the-generation millenial, who grew up on the internet (but avoided places like somethingawful) and I got squeamish over THAT video.
It was legit just a shot of his feet swinging but my brain just went “Thats not fake, not a movie, thats an actual human being”, and I got mad uncomfortable.
So, I feel zero percent sadness over CKs death (in fact legit delight! I’m currently out having drinks over it!) But I cannot fathom actually watching the moment a human being’s life flickers out.
I aint built for that.
I would say most of us are not built for that. Seeing all this horrible shit the internet offers you can’t be good for anyones mental health. In this sense: congratulations on escaping the desensitization.
We had it on loop too
Where video?
Oddly enough, I’m feel less scared of death now. I remember reddit used to have r/watchpeopledie and that really desensitized me to the idea of death.
I hate how society keep dancing around the subject, like cmon, just show it. People would be less afraid and have to resort to religion.
But I guess they put a veil on everything to keep the masses believing in whatever stupid “god” they come up with, “opium of the masses” as some philospher said.
Observing death really makes you appreciate life more. And I’m not saying this as glorifying death, rather, remember all the bigotry is meaningless, we all die. Just accept the difference in skin color, and lifestyle choices like sexual orientation. Just chill and enjoy the rare odds of existing.
I definitely remember a lot of WPD from my Reddit years, and agree with what you say about shying away from death.
And having rejected the religion my parents tried to raise me in, agree with your point about it being an opiate people would rather take than accept reality (the quote is attributed to Marx, IIRC).
When my father asked me how I could believe that only nonexistence awaits after death, I told him a block of ice and a pot of boiling water left in the same room will eventually reach the same temperature. Humans must eat until we die. Meat left out eventually rots. All that lives is born to die. No being that has ever existed to its end has ever reversed its age or failed to permanently die.
Why, then, would you expect the entire universe you find yourself in to have a special cheat code to allow you to ignore all of its principles, just because a book, written by man, told you 1) there is, and that 2) this man-written book is incorruptible and can only ever speak the truth? You don’t find that to be the slightest bit strange?
I think that post was deleted/removed.
Edit: apparently there’s a redirect that isn’t working for me for some reason. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
No still there
Just checked, it’s definitely still up on mastodon.
(screenshot)
Cheers. I had it DMd to me. Very brutal
It seems to have been taken down. My search continues.
Saw it here.
NSFL
Just checked, it’s definitely still there.
search on reddit and include nsfw:yes.
Cheers mate
I saw it on Mastadon.
It was unexpected, I’ll give it that. If I saw it on a movie, i’d have called it fake :)
How many non movie deaths have you witnessed?
anyone around the age of 40 had plenty of time pre sanitized internet to see almost whatever they wanted
You weren’t seeing 4k slow mo videos. 4 second grainy clips sure.
not 4k but minutes long easy and plenty high enough fidelity
Yeah we could poke shit with a stick down by the creek all day
Many years ago when Faces of Death was still a hot thing and I was young, and the internet was ripe for the picking for such things… A number, more than a couple. First hand in real life two, but no shots to the neck.
It seemed low on the outside to catch an artery, obviously it did because you would have had that kind of flow without it.
Honestly, come a lot of the gruesome and horrible crap out there looks kind of tame compared to this. It’s one of the things that surprised me back in the 90s, I was expecting everything to kind of look like this.
Faces of death were mostly fake pal. Have you ever done any hunting or pest removal?
