1. Talk about "projection."

Stupid, weak asshole says what?

[AngryOldDem]

2. Well, he gets the gold for assholery.

Nothing more to say.

[leftieNanner]

3. HOW DARE HE?????

This young woman has worked harder in her life than he will EVER work.

I DARE him to do even one of her workouts.

Go Fuck yourself.

[ornotna]

4. What's a Charlie Kirk?

And who gives a rat's fart what he thinks.

[rurallib]

12. Very curious myself. Some self appointed judge of the world of some kind

[SMC22307]

48. Really? I'm scanning this thread and surprised so few DUers have heard of him.

He's an influential, colossal POS with nearly 2M Twitter followers. He started Turning Point USA. He's associates with another colossal POS - Candace Owens - who has nearly 3M Twitter followers. And if I'm not mistaken, Candace attacked Naomi Osaka ( "special snowflake" ) then backtracked.

[ornotna]

51. Aha! That's why I don't know him

He's a colossal POS.

[SMC22307]

52. LOL Rush Limbaugh? Tucker Carlson? Laura Ingraham?

Surely you know of them?

[ornotna]

53. I confess

I have heard of those colossal ...... Well, you know the rest.

[Celerity]

54. Candace Owens is the ultimate flip-flopping sell-out

From 2018

The Newest Star Of The Trump Movement Ran A Trump-Bashing Publication — Less Than Two Years Ago

A rising star on the right, Owens was CEO of a site that compared Trump to Hitler and speculated that he has a small penis.

Even by the whiplash-inducing standards of Trumpworld, Candace Owens’ rise has been fast.

Ten months ago, the 26-year-old posted her first politically themed video to YouTube, a re-enactment of “coming out” as conservative to her parents. In November, amid allegations of racial bias, the conservative campus advocacy group Turning Point USA hired Owens, who is black, as its director of urban engagement. Last month, Kanye West tweeted his approval of Owens’ thoughts. Last week, President Trump tweeted that Owens was part of a group of “very smart ‘thinkers’” and that she is “having a big impact on politics.” And this week, Owens mingled with Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump at the dedication of the new US embassy in Jerusalem.

Yet Owens, suddenly a new face of the American right, was less than two years ago the CEO of an online publication that frequently mocked then-candidate Trump, including conducting a mock “investigation” into his penis size. (The story determined that it was likely very small.) And in a 2015 column for the site lambasting conservative Republicans, Owens wrote that it was “good news” that the “Republican Tea Party ... will eventually die off (peacefully in their sleep, we hope).”

Indeed, the speed with which Owens has gone from running a frequently anti-Trump, anti-conservative website to being one of the president’s most prominent new supporters illustrates the wild land grab still going on for influence in the pro-Trump ecosystem.



Owens did not immediately respond to requests for comment via email and Twitter, though she did stress in tweets earlier today that the writers for the site, called Degree180, were young. She also described the reporter as a "despicable creature."

(She also accused BuzzFeed News, falsely, of "threatening" the former writers for the site.)

55. Yeah, she's vile. Ann Coulter-level vile.

I just skimmed Owens's Wiki page and feel like I need to shower. Ugh.

[Celerity]

56. Black Twitter/other social media, websites, and blogs say things (richly deserved) about her I

would get banned for posting, lolol.

[SMC22307]

57. LOL Yeah, I follow along on Twitter and it's a sight to behold. (n/t)

[Celerity]

58. Instagram and TikTok too, they go OFF on her, some pretty well known comedians, etc

[SMC22307]

60. I'm not on either of those but will probably sign up soon for Instagram.

Only so many hours in day! Candace thrives on the attacks, just like Trump, MTG, Madison Cawthorn, etc. They're sociopaths.

[Hoyt]

5. Ignorant rube.

[SallyHemmings]

6. We've raised a generation who are setting boundaries.

If she is not in the right headspace doing those routines, the injuries could be catastrophic.

I wish her the best.

[bdamomma]

36. My daughter said the same thing.

[DinahMoeHum]

7. Says the community college dropout.

And how many Olympics has he competed in?

Uh huh.

[Casady1]

9. Probably completely uncoordinated n/t

[JPPaverage]

8. Who is he?

And why should anyone care who he is?

[BeckyDem]

10. A dog whistle for his sick fans.

Unfortunately, they love this kind of smear.

[Ferrets are Cool]

31. You nailed it

[gratuitous]

11. You know what you should do, Charlie?

You should fly to Tokyo, right fucking now, and show those girls how it's done. I suggest you start with the balance beam and the Biles double double beam dismount. That'd show her, that selfish sociopath!

[tblue37]

33. I can't help holding my breath when watching her routines.

[JohnQFunk]

13. If Simone were lily-white like Charlie Smirk, I betcha he would've...

… praised Biles's move as "in her best interest, as any Randian objectivist or libertarian would do" to protect "her personal value and future opportunities."

Because that's how fascistic white nationalists roll.

[Lars39]

18. Not if you're having a health crisis.

[Elessar Zappa]

20. She's having mental health issues.

She doesn’t owe it to anyone to finish.

[obamanut2012]

25. jfc

[yardwork]

26. I doubt you know much about the details, unless you're her.

It's easy to judge from a distance.

[Ferrets are Cool]

30. OMG. I can't believe I read that here.

Just fucking shit.

[tblue37]

34. If she is having psychological stress issues, she could end up seriously injuring herself.

Gymnastic routines are damned dangerous.

[fishwax]

39. .

[USALiberal]

43. I would love to see what you've done in your life. LOL

[dgauss]

15. Just another shithead trolling for controversy attention.

[tanyev]

16. A young woman withdrawing from a sporting event is a selfish sociopath

and people violently beating a Capitol police officer are showing ‘bad judgment’? STFU, Charlie.

[bullimiami]

17. What a f'in a-hole.

[BlueStater]

19. Fuck this douchebag and that ugly, stupid, tacky hat he's wearing.

🖕🖕🖕

[Blue Dawn]

21. What an idiotic thing to say.

?w=1600&h=1600&q=88&f=2186ba5a6f17ce0ebace93e4542d1d0a

Why do so many of these Republican jerks look vacant behind their eyes? So many of them have what I call "shark eyes." Unfeeling....cold....dark.

Simone Biles has more integrity in one of her earlobes than this moron has in his entire being.

What a creep.

[Sympthsical]

35. His face looks photoshopped onto a head that's too big

I don't usually comment on someone's appearance, but it's so unusual. I kept double-taking.

[Blue Dawn]

50. I know what you mean.

A person's appearance is due to genes, and I don't feel right making fun of it. However, a person's countenance is fair game for comment, in my opinion. I think people wear their "insides" on their "outsides."

So many Republicans just look angry, mean, smug, arrogant, and haughty. It's why I think so many of them are unattractive people....in general.

Does that make sense?

[NickB79]

44. He looks like the love child of Tucker Carlson and a pumpkin

[Blue Dawn]

45. Lol!

[smirkymonkey]

22. Who the hell is Charlie Kirk and who gives a flying fuck what he thinks?

Creepy little punk.

[Deuce]

23. Have no idea who he is....don't care to know!

[nolabear]

24. I wonder if this kind of thing is why she left.

Can you imagine having lived in a world filled with COVID, its restrictions impacting every part of what you can do, representing a country that treats your people like lesser thans, and seeing shit like this aimed at you every day?

Social media—or antisocial media—is destroying people. Creeps like Kirk get off on it.

[CentralMass]

27. It's a distraction from today's hearing. They need to gin up some controversy and hate to keep their

the nut squad occupied.

[Carlitos Brigante]

28. Is he really wearing a hat so we can't tell his head has been

swelling up this past year?

[Ferrets are Cool]

29. I'm sure he is someone who some think is important

I don't know him. I've never heard of him until he made a complete and utter FOOL of himself today. And my determination is that he's a worthless piece of worm shit. Hell, even worm shit serves a purpose. This despicable human scum does not.

[maxsolomon]

32. Defining down Sociopathy to excuse Trump's pathologies.

What an awful propagandist.

[Carlitos Brigante]

37. Oh and by the way. A perfect example of a sociopath is someone whose sugar daddy dies of COVID and

they proceed to lie their ass off about COVID and spread conspiracy bullshit.

[JI7]

38. Who is Charlie Kirk ?

[vercetti2021]

40. Says the community college drop out

Seriously he wasn't even good enough for community college. But hey when you have an audience of equal amount of STUPID. It makes you a living. Gotta give all them alt right boys a community to feel love they never got as a child.

[LeftInTX]

41. Charlie Kirk is a white nationalists who shows up at CPAC and has a PAC

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_Kirk_(activist)

[roamer65]

42. If you have a Twitter account, start reporting this festering bowl of dog snot.

I have been doing it, but I need help!

Let’s get him banned.

[demtenjeep]

46. projection

its all they have

[Johonny]

47. I'm pretty sure anyone on the gymnastic team could take him in a fight

He looks like a light weight with no core strength at all. I'm willing to see a match with him to prove he's stronger than her . . .

[Initech]

49. Only acceptable thing to do with scumbags like Charlie Kirk:

[rpannier]

59. Another... I don't pay any attention to gymnastics until now

He probably couldn't identify anyone on the team until this happened
Douche

[maryellen99]

61. Charlie is most likely rooting for Russia (ROC) nt

[Voltaire2]

62. well he is an authority on being a "selfish sociopath" and a "shame to the country"

so there is that.
