Why Do Some Nigerians Think Charlie Kirk Is A Racist? by thewinning101(op):
I've been seeing some funny commentary from Nigerians and africans saying that Charlie Kirk is a racist and he doesn't like immigrants.

What Charlie Kirk said:
Black people are 12% of the American population but commit about 60% of the total murders in America.

There are other factors involved but the most noticeable one is the absense of fathers in black children's lives and the increase of single mother homes from 25% in 1960 to 75% in 2025.


Please can someone tell me the racism in above statement. It's just like somebody saying Africa's problem is bad leadership and the next thing someone starts calling the person a tribalist or a hater.

About immigration:

Charlie Kirk said:
Kirk has repeatedly said that serious reforms are needed for both illegal and legal immigration.
He argues that the southern border, especially due to cartel involvement, has become a security threat that demands stronger measures.


Now the immigration part is also funny to me cos there are certain people who preach unity, diversity, blah blah blah in the morning in Nigeria yet in the evening they start saying "Igbos must leave Lagos". Telling taxpayers to leave a certain part of the country cos you feel they are voting a certain way.


So there you have it. Nigerians who are confused, please tell me which part of Charlie Kirk's statements made him a racist

Strange how the person that slew him was his kind.

Or maybe it wasn't really strange.

The person who shot him was gay and was dating a transgender. Those are the kind of people he preached against.

And no. He never said he hated black people. Charlie Kirk's best friend was Candace Owens, a black woman.

He was telling you why blacks have so much poverty and crime and how to solve it.

Only a fool will see reasonable advice as insult.

Bringing Igbos into this is the very essence of your thread, forget about the mentioning Charlie Kirk who of course is a white conservative trying to protect the interest of his own people.

What I don't understand is how within the same people of same skin color and language, geographical location, have a cultural heritage of discrimination within themselves called the 0'su tradition?! It is not tribalism because it is WORST.

“Yeah, we know. You do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken really seriously. You had to go steal a white person’s slot to go be taken somewhat seriously.”

_ Charlie Kirk, July 13, 2023. Talking about Black women.


“I’m sorry. If I see a Black pilot, I’m going to be like, ‘Boy, I hope he’s qualified.’”

_ Charlie Kirk, January 23, 2024


“If I’m dealing with someone in customer service who’s a moronic Black woman, I wonder is she there because of her excellence or is she there because of affirmative action.”

_ Charlie Kirk, January 3, 2024

“You look at the data, and back before all this civil rights stuff, before the 1940s, before all the welfare programs and desegregation, crime rates in those communities were lower. I’m not saying slavery was good—nobody’s saying that—but the numbers don’t lie. There was order, there was structure, even if it came at a horrific cost.”

_ Charlie Kirk, January, 2024

Please tell me where Charlie Kirk's killer was debunked to not be gay?

His father raised him as Christian but he turned woke, became gay and moved in with his LGBT partner once he went to college.

Isn't that exactly what Charlie said colleges do to young people? Making students pay outrageous fees to study worthless degrees while getting indoctrinated to become gay and lesbians and get acquainted to hookup culture?

Re: Why Do Some Nigerians Think Charlie Kirk Is A Racist? by esnbrutality: 1:58pm On Sep 14, 2025
Where was it debunked that his roomy wasn't gay? The roommate was a man transitioning into a woman..and obviously that person had influence over the shooter.

He preached against Transgenders..
He preached against abortion
He preached against societal evils.

He has never preached against ISLAM, BUDDHIST, etc etc. He was just a passionate Christian,, who didn't jam Christianity down your throat.

So where did he go wrong?

If your village had a population of 20,000 people, will you accept the importation of 40000 Fulani herdsmen from Mali to live in your village in Ogun state?

Who is Lance Twiggs?
Despite social media linking the Twiggs with the 'trans partner' - no report suggest that they are related.

Ever since The Daily Mail reported on Lance Twiggs, which came in the backdrop of the reports on Tyler Robinson living with a 'trans partner,' Twiggs has made it to the tabloid headlines. As per the Daily Mail, they studied at Utah Tech University and was an avid gamer. They were active on TikTok and posted multiple videos regarding his gaming activities and the ambition to become a professional gamer.

the Daily Mail on Saturday, revealing that the 22-year-old "wannabe gamer" had played a key role in the identification and the subsequent arrest of Twiggs. The report does not say that Twiggs was transgender or that he was Robinson's partner. The Mail asked Twiggs' grandfather about it, but he refused to confirm the same.

On the contrary blacks are the major victims of gun violence in the United States of America.

It is stereotyping that blacks are responsible for majority of death in the U.S.

You need to learn how to debate and argue logically

The argument You are putting forward takes the following form

Why do people think Tinubu is a bad president

Tinubu once said Nigeria is a great country
Tinubu once said Nigerian unity is not negotiable
Tinubu pays workers salaries

therefore
Tinubu cannot be a bad president


Note I have not engaged you on Charlie Kirk whether or not he is racist
Only to point out you methodology

Your methodology is at the level of a primary 4 pupil

The issue is beyond your brain power




If you are interested in enquiry ask the question


What evidence is there that he is racist? Then engage with that ?

Maybe you can ask CHATGPT

Is there evidence that he was racist give 20 examples.
Re: Why Do Some Nigerians Think Charlie Kirk Is A Racist? by esnbrutality: 2:19pm On Sep 14, 2025
The Black suppression and systematic downgrade was packaged by the Democrat Party.

Why is it that GUNs flood the Streets of predominantly Black neighborhoods?

Why is it that Blacks have the highest population of single parents, especially the single 'mothers' . Who raise children without father figures?

Why is it that Blacks, have the highest percentage of children in foster care?

Why is it that Blacks have been made redundant by being dependent on Walfare for survival?

All the above sequences was structured by the DEMOCRAT party.

Do you know that the Republican Party that abolished Slaves trade was predominantly Black?

Do you know that the person that advocated of returning blacks to slavery was actually a DEMOCRATIC Party President?

You guys should understand that Blacks are being staged for the fall, and our fellow blacks aren't helping each other, because they have a mentality of NEED and wants, without working and competing equitably.

Nuff said

Are they whites?! Of course they are not whites.

The red Indians are the Native American who don't qualify as a CAUCASIAN.

Hence your response raises the issue of colonization as a form of occupation of others territory. It was centuries of genocide. The killings of these natives American by invaders, yes whites CAUCASIANS and who subjugated them to Christianity. That was a form of western terrorism. The whites invaded America using brute force.

So what about blacks?

The first black slaves were brought to the colonies, which we call America today about 400 years ago.

I’m reminded of the fact that many black people have had a long history of being terrorized from random beatings to the lynching, to raping to all sorts of dehumanization by whites which is still evident till today.

That is western terrorism.
