Charlie Kirk : « L’extrême droite tente de béatifier un homme qui professait la haine »

Until now, he was virtually unknown in France. In just two weeks, Charlie Kirk, a far-right influencer murdered on September 10 in Utah while debating with students, has become a new martyr for the far right worldwide. And even a hero of a freedom of expression that has itself been murdered. Who was he? How has this assassination been exploited by the far right to target those who oppose Trump? Is freedom of expression the freedom to spread hate? Our program, with Cole Stangler, Sylvie Laurent, and Fabien Escalona. 0:00 - 1:15 Introduction 01:15 - 02:55 A Martyr of MAGA America 02:55 - 04:25 Guest Introductions 04:25 - 07:36 A Highly Political Appropriation 07:36 - 11:13 The Tribute to Kirk at Glendale Stadium 11:13 - 15:20 A Religious Staging 15:20 - 17:41 Charlie Kirk, an Inciter of Hate 17:41 - 22:08 Relying on Unbalanced Verbal Contests 22:08 - 25:16 The Witch Hunt Targeting the Left 25:16 - 27:15 The Profile of Tyler Robinson 27:15 - 31:56 An Accelerating Repression 31:56 - 37:22 A Murder Manipulated by Extremism Right 37:22 - 39:43 "Making Charlie Kirk a scapegoat against George Floyd" 39:43 - 47:30 What did Charlie Kirk really stand for? 45:48 - 50:35 A victimhood that is becoming commonplace 50:35 - 55:51 French columnists sow confusion 55:51 - 1:01:44 Practicing cancel culture does not serve freedom of expression 1:01:44 - 1:04:58 Media concentration enables Kirk propaganda 1:04:58 - 1:05:29 To support Mediapart: subscribe 🗞️ To read our article "After the assassination of Charlie Kirk, a figure in the Maga movement, Trump attacks the 'radical left'": https://www.mediapart.fr/journal/inte... 🗞️ To read our article “In France, the assassination of Charlie Kirk fuels political confusion”: https://www.mediapart.fr/journal/poli...
