Hey y’all, welcome back to Unfit to Print.

Yesterday, Vice President JD Vance hosted Charlie Kirk’s podcast in his absence, and his closing message was stunning. He made it clear: yes, there are right-wing crazies, but they pale in comparison to those on the left. The numbers confirm it.

Our country has been subjected to the most insane attempts at revisionist history since Charlie was assassinated. We’re going to talk about that today.

GASLIGHTING THE NATION

In December 2016, a Teen Vogue columnist by the name of Lauren Duca asserted that Donald Trump was “gaslighting America.”

Duca claimed that Trump was manipulating the American populace into believing things that weren’t true in pursuit of his own political power.

You may remember Duca from a viral appearance on Tucker’s show, in which he snarked after a heated political debate, “You should stick to the thigh-high boots, you’re better at that.”

Duca immediately became the left’s favorite victim, was tapped to teach a six-week course at NYU — which was panned by students — and then came out as “queer” and married a woman. Now, apparently, she is hosting “queer psychedelic comedy shows.”

Anyway, I bring this up because America is currently experiencing actual gaslighting.

During the Biden administration, Democrats told us that crime is going down, there was no crisis at the southern border, the economy was great, COVID masks and vaccines worked, and Biden had more energy than staffers half his age.

But nothing could be worse than what Democrats are doing in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk assassination.

We’re being told that no one was actually celebrating Charlie’s death.

Okay, here’s a list of a bunch of people who were fired for doing exactly that. Here’s a video compilation. And here’s another video compilation. Not to mention how many people shrouded their excitement about the assassination in he didn’t deserve it, BUT or spreading lies about things he said to justify or excuse his murder (*ahem* Washington Post columnist Karen Attiah).

We’re also being told that we don’t know the shooter’s motivation or — even more insane — that he was actually a right-wing extremist who believed Charlie wasn’t racist or fascist enough. In fact, a plurality of Americans believes Charlie’s killer was a Republican, according to a YouGov poll.

Of course, the evidence we have so far on the suspect is that his family members and friends said he was a leftist, he lived with his transgender roommate, he said Charlie was spreading hate and was a fascist, and had Antifa-linked phrases and song lyrics on his ammunition. Hmm, what could possibly have been his motivation?

Then we’re told right-wing rhetoric and extremism is the real problem, and blaming conservatives for the death of one of their own. Ilhan Omar shared a colorful little chart claiming there have been massively more deaths due to right-wing extremism than left-wing extremism. Except the chart was complete bullshit. I first looked into it years ago when arguing with shitlibs at Georgetown. The numbers were compiled by the Anti-Defamation League and the right-wing extremism numbers include gang killings by white skinheads, acts of domestic violence by the KKK or white skinheads, and other incidents that have literally nothing to do with “political violence” as we understand it.

Here’s one example from their 2024 database:

“Police charged Jesse James Sullivan, of Concord, New Hampshire, with the shooting death of his younger half-brother, Zackary Sullivan, on January 16, 2024. Jesse Sullivan was charged with second-degree murder and falsifying physical evidence; later, the charge was upgraded to first-degree murder. Zackary died of a single gunshot wound to the neck. Jesse Sullivan is a reported member of the Brothers of White Warriors, a New Hampshire-based white supremacist prison gang. Authorities have said Sullivan killed Zackary because he believed his half-brother had informed on him to the police.”

In addition, here’s a helpful list of left-wing political violence in recent years. Josh Hammer also compiled some nice examples of dehumanizing left-wing rhetoric last fall.

Finally, we’re told that getting people fired who celebrate Charlie’s death is “cancel culture,” which the right is supposed to hate.

Except cancel culture is when the punishment doesn’t fit the crime: getting people fired for decades-old posts that didn’t age well, issuing boycotts against advertisers on TV programs you don’t like, getting a rodeo clown fired for dressing up as Obama.

Violating the most basic norms of decency and humanity by celebrating someone’s murder, on the other hand, is a completely justifiable reason to get fired. In fact, it should be the obvious solution. If you are so evil that you take pleasure in a political opponent with completely mainstream opinions being killed, you certainly should not be employed as a teacher, in a hospital, or for the government.

I know I am tired of the gaslighting. And millions of conservatives who have already been radicalized by Charlie’s death are only going to become even more convicted if the left keeps lying to them.

WHAT ELSE IS ON MY RADAR

Some good news in a sea of darkness:

Speaking of violent rhetoric…

She seems nice!
