@aidanetcetera It was a shitpost. Check out Know Your Meme for more of the history on it, or john ganz, or my newsletter #kirk #owo ♬ original sound – Aidan Walker

I’m not going to wade into the political realm anymore, but, over the past few days, it’s become pretty clear a lot of people don’t understand the memes used by the alleged killer of Charlie Kirk. I post these two videos only for understanding of what they mean in case you are struggling to wrap your head around them. Aidan Walker does a good job of clearing things up in his two videos in a clear and concise manner.

@aidanetcetera

thank you to the commenters who pointed this out! i originally cut out the part where i explained this for length, but it’s important context.

I understood about 90% of the references, but I fully recognize most people I know would not. In case you can’t view them here, I’ve linked below where you can watch the videos.

As for me, I’ve got a couple of things written, but not proofread. It’s the Fall, so flashbacks are interfering with my life a bit more than usual. I’m also trying to deal with something with my mom’s estate. I’ll get at least one thing up by the end of the week.
