Charlie Kirk is a smart ass and loves controversy.
He will engage students at the university's he goes to and my impression is that it's a matter of choice to engage him back or attend one of his speaking engagements.
Students don't have to attend and regardless of who Kirk invites to join him.

It should be studied how often what you say out of spite goes against your own goals …
Perhaps you should take your own advice.
That wasn’t advice.
Then heed your own words.

Just a smartass who loves controversy? Are you also unaware of his opinions and actions?

"At one point on Monday, Kirk said that as soon as King became idolized, "the progress of black America goes sideways."
"Their cities disintegrate. Their families collapse. Educational progress stagnates. They become enormously dependent on government support," Kirk posted on X before adding that, "You will know the tree by its fruit."

Lmao, there’s nothing to heed either.
You don’t understand. That’s ok.
It means: Kirk is someone you would want deplatformed, so the fact that you laugh at people who haven’t heard of him will only get more and more people to look him up and read about what he says. Thereby INCREASING the reach of his platform. And while it might get some people to disagree with him , other people might start agreeing with him…so could easily be helping him gain followers with your spite.

I am aware of him and I don't care for him.

I was surprised you hadn't heard of him as he's been discussed multiple times on this forum and he and TPUSA have been pretty prolific since 2012. I don't think Della runs the risk of increasing his reach.

Such a conspiracist
I'm sure people like you who have never heard of him agree with him.

there’s no suggestion of a conspiracy here.
Thanks for the suggestion of who might share my views though! I’ll check him out!

I didn’t say I’d never heard of him, I said I paid little attention to what he said.
I still detest what was said about MLK, but who knows… maybe I’ll agree with him about other topics if Della is trying to push it so hard that I’d like him… I’ll give his other topics a listen and decide…
I'm sure people like you who have never heard of him agree with him.
