I have no clue who he was and why some people are upset. For the rest of the world he was like me, nobody, so cut the crap and stop explaining who was this nobody.
Being serious just in case.
He was a right wing talking head running an org called Turning Point USA that are basically nationalist christians and had risen to a degree of prominence within that niche by challenging people (mostly young women) to “debates” in which he basically steamrolled over people who really were not in any way prepared to challenge what was said. Anyone he didn’t steamroll just…wouldn’t be included in the footage he’d distribute.
To be less serious about it, he was best known for chronically publicly masturdebating to defenseless college girls. And for having a wife that seemed weirdly close to JD Vance immediately after Kirk died. There’s a part of me that expects JD to divorce his wife for the widow prior to making his next big political move, since his current wife is not exactly…blonde and white enough for a significant part of the white nationalist christian audience Vance is usually playing to.

shhh it’s a lowkey attempt to spread the conspiracy theory to the people who think that rotting piece of flesh was a martyr
