really?
he’s laughing at the hypocrisy / stupidity of the liberals and their ‘gays for Palestine’, a place where actual homophobia exists.
You know Muslims don’t tolerate homosexuality I’m sure, so that was what that was about,..but sure, support actual homophobia in Palestine and go after Charlie Kirk - good logic

And yes, if you are going to do the depraved acts of October 7th there are obviously going to be consequences.

Most normal people see this clearly

Eh? Nobody is “supporting homophobia” being critical of Kirk joking about the genocide doesn’t mean you can’t condemn homophobia! What a leap 🙄

@hamstersarse
You have been asking for sometime for links showing Charlie Kirk as "racist" so here you go:

Please explain how you reached the conclusion he's racist. Because he spoke to a black woman? What's wrong with you? Why would that be racist?

I suspect it was supposed to be him not being racist… as if anyone said everything hr said or did was racist

OK I see. The claim that he was racist has got to be the most disingenuous thing I've ever heard. He was literally one of the most honest, hard working, virtuous men out there

if not racist, why racist shaped?

The “context” for most of these (I will admit I haven’t watched the long form for all of them) is him doubling down and talking longer, but saying the same thing.

He talking about facts relating to race. He's unapologetic, not racist. He makes good points

He’s unapologetically racist, sure.

Facts 😂 you think it’s a fact that Michele Obama is only where she is because of DEI and affirmative actions? That there’s an anti white conspiracy where “they’re” trying to replace white people?

Really?

So you clearly failed to understand what was said:

Michelle Obama stated that career wise she only got to where she was through DEI."

Charlie Kirk replied " yes we know"

Why’s the homophobic in quotes?

I don’t agree with your lifestyle, but I have to tolerate it because of politics isn’t homophobic?

Saying being gay is a lifestyle isn’t homophobic?

No, she didn’t. She NEVER said she was DEI . Kirk mistakenly claimed she had BUT whilst she’d talked about DEI in general terms she had absolutely never claimed to be. Find me one piece of proof where she said she was DEI. I’ll wait…..
He is racist.

@Alicealig Just out of interest are you also against contextual offers in UK universities?

@1dayatatime Not only does he falsely claim she was DEI,
he insulting states“ You do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken really seriously. You had to go steal a white person’s slot to go be taken somewhat seriously." 🤢
Kirk assumed her success was due to race-based policies without knowing anything about her admissions details. This is the problem with Kirk. You are not the first person in this thread to repeat Kirk lies about this. It’s racist disinformation that some people unquestionably swallow.
He frequently throws out misinformation but speaks quickly and authoritatively and people swallow it. Have a dig around in his Christian Nationalism argument and look at what theologians/ Mormon pastors have to say about his scripture quotes. He’s far off the mark.

I'm against anyone getting any position anywhere, where the sole criteria is anything other than merit. Skin colour should play no role whatsoever. Any other method is by definition racist.

What about falsely attributing someone’s success solely to their skin colour? Telling them that they only achieved success because of DEI and questioning their demonstrable intelligence by telling them they don’t have “ the brain processing power” to have achieved this on their own merit. This was not based on facts (Obama never claimed to be DEI, despite what Kirk falsely asserted) but presumption and on the basis of her skin colour alone? Surely that has to be racist 🤔

So as @Alicealigstated getting a university place or a particular job or anything else should be based on merit not skin colour or sex or sexual preference. Anything else is discrimination.

However if you have DEI in place you then enter a world where suspicions or accusations (true or false) are made that a person only got the university place or particular job because of their skin colour or sex or sexual preference.

This is a really unhealthy situation where DEI actually creates doubt whether someone got that job or university place on merit leading to feelings of racism or misogyny or homophobia- which previously didn't exist and which no healthy society wants.

Wait so you are just going to ignore Kirk’s lies? Michelle Obama didn’t profess to be DEI and Kirk said they’re coming out and saying it. Michelle didn’t. What do you make of that? We are talking about Kirk here and what he said. Not the merits or otherwise of DEI. He lied and claimed she’d said she was a DEI and said “You had to go steal a white person’s slot to go be taken somewhat seriously."
Let’s stick to Kirk and what he said.

Racism, misogyny and homophobia previously didn't exist? where do you live? I want to move there!

tabulahrasa · 24/09/2025 20:49

As I’ve said earlier in the thread - it’s entirely possible to discuss policies like DEI and affirmative action without the racism. Especially given that white women are statistically the group of people that benefit most from DEI hiring policies.

But he chose to do it with racist dog whistles - and it was a choice, he was very successful at what he was doing, in any measure want to use. He’d turn any question into the ones he wanted to talk about and how he wanted to frame it, he knew full well that what he was saying would attract the audience he wanted and became very wealthy and influential doing it.

He knew full well that spouting misinformation like Michelle Obama benefitting from DEI would attract the racists, would sound plausible to those who didn’t know any better and would attract opposition that would help make it viral. He had 2 years to say, actually yeah I was wrong about that, he never did - because he knew exactly what he was doing.

OK let me rephrase that :

leading to some people questioning whether say jobs or university places were given based on skin colour or sex or sexual preference rather than merit. A questioning that would not have arisen if DEI policies were not in place.

In any event I do believe that there is a demand and supply imbalance in racism in the UK where more people want to shout or claim instances of "racism" than there is actual racism taking place.

The vast majority of people in the UK are not racist and instances of actual racism are limited to a very small minority of all skin colours.

TooTooMuchEverything · 25/09/2025 00:40

DEI is not designed to give a job to anyone who has less qualifications over another person who has more qualifications for the job. It is designed to get people from minority groups into jobs for which they equally qualified but are under represented. The goal is that People of Colour will no longer underrepresented in certain areas of employment. If underrepresented in the job they are applying for, DEI insures that black people would get the job over the white person. Unfortunately, because of racial bias it was white people that were given that preference before. (Sometimes when the person of Colour was more qualified).

But Trump and his administration would have us believe that black people are being given jobs they are not qualified for, over white people that were more qualified. It’s absolute bullshit

To post that racism is limited to the minority in the U.K. is also bullshit. Racism is systemic and built into our institutions. As a result it’s possible to Participate in a racist system daily and be completely oblivious to your part in it.

And people are regularly racially profiled in one way or another.

I’ve referred to ‘Black people’ at times but am aware that it’s the same for other People of Colour.
