Right-wing lawmakers pushed for a tribute to the U.S. conservative influencer who was shot dead.
European Parliament President Roberta Metsola on Thursday rejected a bid by right-wing factions to hold a minute of silence for slain U.S. conservative influencer Charlie Kirk.
The initiative was first proposed by Charlie Weimers, an MEP from the right-wing European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR), as a symbolic measure “to declare that our right to freedom of speech cannot be extinguished,” according to an email chain with dozens of MEPs that was seen by POLITICO.
Why the fuck would EU Parliament give a shit about an American YouTuber?
the thing about fascists is that everything that doesn’t involve bending the knee and pledging complete loyalty and respect to fascists is a cause for uproar
remember some years ago, the far right outrage over starbucks for daring to release xmas cups that were just solid red because they weren’t jesusy enough?
these people are fucking insane cultist psychopaths
He’s not just a YouTuber, he’s a Republican Mega-Bundler. One of the richest country’s premier bagmen has been slain. How can you be so callous? It’s not like he’s a Palestinian or a Minnesota Congressperson or a Colorado school kid, here. He’s important!
Yeah, the GOP keeps trying to make this asshole into something more than he’s not. He wasn’t even part of ANY government service. Like, this clown wasn’t even a local parks and rec employee of a small town.
the GOp need something to unify the disarra-yed supporters of magats. THE MSM will just sweep this under the rug like they did with RUSH, ONCE THE NEWS cycle blows over, they did nothing of noteworthy to benefit society so they will just disappear as soon as people reorient themselves with epstein again.
