Yu's Personal Reckoning With Friends Who Openly Celebrated Charlie Kirk's Death Online

[00:01] So, it's been 4 days since Charlie

[00:04] Kirk's assassination,

[00:06] and it's been eating me up inside.

[00:10] I literally can't focus. I'm just like

[00:13] staring at a blank screen.

[00:16] Yeah. And on top of that, I am

[00:17] completely disgusted by certain

[00:20] individuals.

[00:22] And

[00:23] I'm sure you guys have seen this these

[00:26] videos of people celebrating it online.

[00:29] And

[00:32] I guess a lot of people around me,

[00:36] people in my circles really show their

[00:38] true colors.

[00:40] I guess that's a good thing. So I can

[00:43] rat out these people in my life.

[00:46] I've seen like so many people who

[00:49] follows me on Instagram like they post

[00:52] these like they post these posts on

[00:55] their stories

[00:57] that justifies Charlie's death and

[01:00] somehow it's deserved

[01:03] and they like these posts

[01:06] and I'm just if you can justify his

[01:08] death like you can also justify my death

[01:11] then you know what I mean? Since I

[01:14] started this channel, like one of my

[01:16] biggest fear is that the people who like

[01:20] know me personally will find out about

[01:22] this because a lot of them have opposing

[01:25] views and it's fine. I'm still their

[01:27] friend because like they're good people.

[01:30] They're fun people to be around with.

[01:32] So, I'm going to be friends with them

[01:34] regardless of your views, right? But

[01:39] then this happened. And I think this is

[01:41] just a turning point for me and for a

[01:43] lot of us that these some people in our

[01:45] life are just they just have to leave. I

[01:48] don't care anymore if they find out

[01:50] about this channel. I don't care if they

[01:52] find out. I stand by what I believe in.

[01:55] And if they find out,

[01:58] thanks for the engagement, I guess. You

[02:00] know, like you're watching my videos.

[02:03] So yeah, I want to end this week.

[02:07] I guess just by

[02:09] sort of like sending a message to those

[02:11] people. Yeah. To those soulless people

[02:15] out there. I don't expect you to have

[02:19] the same feeling as I am. I don't expect

[02:21] you to feel the same way that I feel

[02:24] about Charlie's death and the same way

[02:27] many people feel about his death. You

[02:29] don't have to mourn. I'm not asking you

[02:30] to mourn, but you got to have some

[02:32] common decency. You know, everyone's

[02:35] going to have different feelings and

[02:37] experiences depending on how that person

[02:40] is connected to you in some way, how

[02:43] like what role they played in your life.

[02:45] So, yes, Charlie's death impacted me

[02:48] more than some other people's death. I'm

[02:50] going to be so honest. Like, obviously,

[02:53] if someone like Charlie who impacted me

[02:55] so much and helped me grow as a person,

[02:58] that's going to affect me more than some

[03:01] like stranger dying, you know? I'm not

[03:04] here to justify anyone's death or here

[03:08] to say that this group deserve to die

[03:10] more than this group. Like deaths are

[03:14] sad. All kinds of deaths are tragic. But

[03:17] like in reality, we can't help it to

[03:20] feel differently for different people.

[03:23] When we express grief for Charlie Kirk,

[03:27] the left and these disgusting people I'm

[03:30] talking about, they immediately shifts

[03:32] to like, "What about this? What about

[03:35] that?" All they can resort to is what

[03:38] aboutism? What about the kids that were

[03:40] murdered? What about the kids in Gaza?

[03:43] What about the kids who were shot at the

[03:46] school? Like, yes, all of the above are

[03:49] sad. They are tragic. These innocent

[03:52] people do not deserve to die.

[03:56] Just keep spitting these things out.

[03:58] Keep asking me, "What about this? What

[03:59] about that?" I will not deny that

[04:01] something's tragic because any human

[04:04] with a heart will feel something. I

[04:07] cried when I saw that video of Ireina

[04:09] Zerusa get murder on the train. I was

[04:12] devastated when I heard that. The same

[04:15] with the kids who were shot at the

[04:16] Catholic school. Sorry, the Catholic

[04:18] church.

[04:20] Like it's like telling someone that your

[04:22] friend died and that person is like,

[04:25] "Oh, what about the kids who got shot in

[04:29] that place? Have you heard about the

[04:31] mass shooting that just happened?

[04:32] Where's the energy for this person?

[04:34] Where's the energy for that?"

[04:37] Like, is that all you can say? And I saw

[04:39] this post on Instagram

[04:42] comparing ice rates to Charlie Kirk's

[04:45] death. They were saying things like, "If

[04:47] you cared about political violence, then

[04:49] you should care about ICE rates. Where

[04:51] is the energy for ICE rates?" And and I

[04:54] went down and I saw the likes on there.

[04:56] So many of my friends like that post.

[04:59] I'm just like sitting here. I'm like,

[05:00] "Are you stupid?" Like seriously, are

[05:04] you stupid? Cuz ice raids are not

[05:06] comparable to Charlie Kirk's death.

[05:10] It's like a false equivalence because

[05:13] these these aren't the same kind of

[05:15] events. Ice raids happen because some

[05:17] people broke the law. If you break the

[05:20] law, you face consequences. You look at

[05:22] all the countries around you. Every

[05:24] country has some sort of immigration

[05:26] law. And the consequences you face in

[05:29] America is not even that bad compared to

[05:31] many other countries. The difference is

[05:33] that Charlie did not break a law. All he

[05:36] ever did was to have respectful

[05:38] conversations.

[05:40] He gave everyone a voice. Literally,

[05:44] everyone. If you watch his debates,

[05:47] all sorts of people talked to him. He

[05:49] didn't care where you came from. He

[05:51] didn't care what you look like. He

[05:52] didn't care about your race, your how

[05:54] you identify yourself as, what your

[05:58] sexuality is.

[06:00] He talked to everybody. Everybody had

[06:02] the opportunity to express the views.

[06:05] people who agree with him, people who

[06:07] disagree with him, people who despised

[06:08] him. And you have to realize that he

[06:11] also gave liberals the confidence in

[06:13] their ideals, in their opinions, because

[06:17] you can only grow when your idea is

[06:20] challenged and when you have the chance

[06:23] to defend your ideas. And he gave that

[06:26] opportunity to many people. He fought

[06:28] for the rights for you to speak freely

[06:30] and he listened. And the left just keeps

[06:33] calling him things like racist, fascist

[06:37] when there are no evidence. And they use

[06:40] these labels they put on him as a way to

[06:43] justify for his death. And they base

[06:46] their entire opinion on secondhand

[06:50] information that they got from Tik Tok

[06:53] and the media.

[06:55] And I can guarantee you that they've

[06:57] never seen the full clips. or if they

[06:59] have seen the full clips, they lack the

[07:01] intelligence

[07:02] to understand the implications behind

[07:06] his words. They call him a fascist while

[07:08] what happened to him was something a

[07:11] fascist would do to silence someone's

[07:15] words. They call him a fascist, but a

[07:18] fascist wouldn't give people the

[07:20] opportunity to express their opposing

[07:23] views. So, think again. You guys who

[07:27] justify death have no heart and you're

[07:30] the people who are lecturing us

[07:34] on morality.

[07:35] And I hope that some of the people that

[07:37] I have in mind find this video. So I

[07:41] guess yeah, this is sort of like a

[07:42] message to them, to these people I have

[07:45] in mind, these disgusting people who are

[07:49] justifying Charlie's death. Maybe this

[07:51] is the video that will show up on their

[07:53] suggested page. Thank you for watching.
