This is kind of what I meant about making things up about victims. Calling Charlie Kirk “respectful” is objectively ahistorical.

I understand the impulse to be polite about the deceased, but the guy (for just one example) -in the middle of the January wildfires in Los Angeles- took to his audience to say that the destruction that the fires caused was due to a lack of white firefighters. That is both deeply disrespectful and completely false. And entirely on-brand. https://www.rawstory.com/charlie-kirk-white-men/

You're a clear example of what Charlie was not. You're not respectfully engaging in this discussion.

GP said Charlie Kirk was respectful during debates. You tried to deny this, not by showing one of his college debates, but by taking out of context what he said on one of his shows.

If you actually watched his debates, you wouldn't have said that. https://www.youtube.com/@RealCharlieKirk/videos

>You're a clear example of what Charlie was not.

This is absolutely correct.

You just linked to a YouTube channel. Which totally-not-performance legitimate debate do you recommend? ”Charlie Kirk VS the Wokies at University of Tennessee“ or is “Charlie Kirk Crushes Woke Lies at Michigan State” a better place to start?

Sorry if I sound sarcastic, I’m not. If you had to pick between Versus The Wokies and Crushes Woke Lies which would you suggest best showcases how his debates were not performances meant to inflame but rather reasoned, dispassionate discussion?

You are being obviously disingenuous considering I provided you with a specific debate in another comment where he was respectful and constructive and you proceeded to blithely ignored the fact that it completely contradicts your argument.

I found the thing you said couldn't be found and you said "whatever, I'm still right."

You linked a single twelve minute clip. Charlie Kirk’s performances were routinely hours-long. The only videos in that channel that are close to the length of his actual performances have titles like Versus The Wokies and Crushes Woke Lies.

They’re both pretty long, and I’m not going to spend four hours watching Charlie Kirk performances, so if you could tell me which is a better example of his legitimate debate style I would appreciate that.

Which is a better example of reasoned discussion: Crushes Woke Lies or Versus The Wokies?

		I shared a video of a legitimate discussion with you. There are many others like it. You obviously only care about defending your tribe and its positions. Goodbye.
