What is Charlie Kirk's legacy (lemmings.world)

Charlie Kirk's murder is a shock to me and prior to that I really have not thought about him for months (he apparently shared a stage with Hassan piker), of course the south Park parody.

I have ran into a few of Kirk's supporters and apparently his legacy is his family and his apparently endless college debates that get rephrased as "debated an entire generation" and governors.

To me, it seems like Kirk was just a content creator.

"I think it's worth it to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the second amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational." - Charlie Kirk

This. Right here. This quote. I suggest his family make his tombstone out of stainless steel so they can easily pressure wash away the marker pens of people scrawling these words across it.

Thoughts and prayers.
