People are getting fired for allegedly celebrating Charlie Kirk's murder. It looks like a coordinated effort

[Jilly_in_VA]

Dozens of social media posts and messages about the murder of Charlie Kirk, including some that celebrated his death, are being spotlighted by conservative activists, Republican elected officials and a doxxing website as part of an online campaign to punish the posters behind the messages.

Prominent far-right influencer Laura Loomer, a US senator, and a site called “Expose Charlie’s Murderers” have all drawn attention to people who have posted messages about Kirk’s Wednesday assassination.

The campaigns show how social media posts or personal messages — even by accounts with few followers or from people who are not public figures — could easily be surfaced and publicized, and people’s personal information can be spread across the internet at a time when doxxing is easier than ever.

The Charlie’s Murderers site, whose domain was registered anonymously and which says it is not a doxxing site, claims it has “received nearly 30,000 submissions,” according to a message on the site’s front page on midday Saturday. Currently, there are a few dozen submissions published on the site. “This website will soon be converted into a searchable database of all 30,000 submissions, filterable by general location and job industry. This is a permanent and continuously-updating archive of Radical activists calling for violence.”

Fucking Nazis are after us all. You can't even quote the guy, FFS!

1. Big Brother is watching all of us. nt

[no_hypocrisy]

2. What gets me is that Charlie Kirk had/has all the benefits of the First Amendment's

Freedom of Speech and the rest of us lose our jobs, risk retribution, and "invite" terrorism upon Democrats generally for having our own opinions. They're just words, not actions.

[maxrandb]

10. What gets me is...WE (THE PEOPLE) ARE FUCKING ALLOWING IT!

[Arazi]

3. Elon Musk bought Twitter specifically to "restore" (sic) free speech

And the (in their own minds) suppression of conservatives/Republicans on campuses, in the workplace, media etc has been a big rightwing talking point.

It was always a lie.

This is actual censorship and suppression of free speech

[SickOfTheOnePct]

9. Businesses don't have any obligation...

...to allow free speech. If an employee says something that will negatively impact the business, the business, in most cases, has the right to fire them.

[Arazi]

21. Absolutely. My point is the hypocrisy

The rightwing bleats about “free speech”! But only when it agrees with them

[Arazi]

6. Kirk was a hateful misogynistic bigot. Nobody should be fired for telling the truth

Enjoy your stay 🙄

[RandomNumbers]

15. That was quick. :) I think he raised an interesting case

(although it was ABSOLUTELY rightfully hidden)

I will post my response below.

[Arazi]

17. They were absolutely spewing rightwing talking points

That Kirk was a reasonable person “just debating”…

Fuck that guy

[RandomNumbers]

19. I agree,

I was going to post reply then alert him myself.

Thing is, hidden post's ridiculous example is a bright, shining example of the problem with what the OP is discussing - the rabid reich-wing is reacting violently to anyone merely posting a personal opinion that the reich-wing doesn't like. The scale of harm from the reaction is massively disproportionate to the harm of a simple inappropriate post by one person on a social media account.

[Arazi]

20. Their larger point was people are saying shit online that they wouldn't IRL

And thus people get more outrageous (and in the banned poster’s view, wrong, since he tried to point us to “reasonable-debate-Charlie” examples) so that makes it justifiable to create a site explicitly designed to put people in crosshairs.

It’s chilling free speech in both cases - IRL and online.

And doesn’t change my opinion at all that I’ll happily say to their face and online.

Charlie Kirk was a massive jackass whose sole purpose was to spread divisive bullshit

[RandomNumbers]

16. I wonder where are the consequences

for those making threats against George Abaraonye? (this was a response to the post who was hidden; post had claimed this is not a right/left thing - "both sides" engage in online bullying - which might have been an okay statement - marginally - with appropriate context - but then went on to raise an example about this guy I am writing about here, in a way that clearly supported Kirk's views. I think this example really shows the warped view of trying to draw equivalency between someone who makes a mean comment about someone they didn't like who had a bad thing happen - vs. organized harassment and threats)

He's a young guy who reacted impulsively, and deleted those comments quickly when he learned Kirk had died. I have seen many clips of Kirk that support that he was outright racist. Just because Kirk was well spoken in a debate* only means he is well-prepped and crafty - not that he isn't an awful human being.

Meanwhile, people are actually threatening this young black man. There is a world of difference between posting a distasteful reaction to something bad happening to another person, and ACTIVELY HARASSING another human being.

Oxford says they will treat the accusations against George seriously. I hope they seriously weigh the relative harms of his quickly-deleted statements (miniscule) to the harm of allowing people to outright harass and threaten other people just because they don't like what they said.

And don't forget that Kirk's shooter was much more likely a MAGA disappointed in Kirk's attempt to mainstream TP, than any kind of liberal. (although I stick with the main motivation being the shooter was just nutz from a certain subculture, that hates "both sides" without having a fucking clue about anything).

5. This is huge. The RW is instilling a systematic chilling effect on valid, protected free speech.

MS NOW (MSNBC's soon-to-be new name) sacking Dowd for a simple truthful observation kicked it off on a national scale.

Fuck them.

8. McCarthy is dancing in his grave

[OC375]

7. Doxing

Who knew it would get out of control? Doxing has been a thing long enough to get a dictionary entry and even old me knows what it means by now. Hope these folks stay safe. I think this crap stuck societally, and is just part of life now. Perhaps some laws are needed here to make doxing a crime?

[Scrivener7]

11. If we were smart, we would set up a similar site of RIGHT-WINGERS who were

dissing Kirk before he died. Because there were plenty. Loomer for one.

[JustAnotherGen]

23. And submit

Members of the Krasnov Admin. Laura Loomer is another one that I know has been getting submitted over and over again.

[Cosmocat]

12. This is a straight up memoriam to him

Same model as TPUSA "watchlists" for professors and school board members.

[58Sunliner]

13. How do we fight this??

[ananda]

14. Society is barely funcitoning right now...

So if we fire everybody who's not Magat,
it won't function at all, in any area.

The insanity is worse than insane now.

[Torchlight]

18. A lot pf people are invested in seeing the obvious called anything other than the obvious

It's an open tell

[JustAnotherGen]

22. There's actually

A website being hosted by Square Space. Folks are working on getting it taken down.

24. Who Is.com

https://www.whois.com/whois/charliesmurderers.com

Information on the site. Have a feeling it's done via a,VPN to make it look like it's out so the US. I'd bet Scot Pressler was involved. He started name people on his FB and Instagram on late Thursday.
