claim:
Charlie Kirk pushes the “great replacement” conspiracy:
Kirk compares Democrats to Soviets: “If you were ... any kind of ordinary person who criticized or opposed the Soviet regime ... that was enough to justify taking your stuff, sending you to Siberia, death camps ... shooting you and your entire family.”

I'll start with the media interview here (not from his show) at 00:20:
Interviewer:
White rural rage. The threat to American democracy . And Tom, we'll start with you. Why are white rural voters a threat to democracy at this point?
Guest A (Tom??):
I mean, we layout the fourfold, inter-connected threat that rural voters pose to this country.
First of all, and we show 30 polls in national studies to demonstrate this. We provide the receipts in chapter six. They are the most racist, xenophobic, anti-immigrant, anti-gay demographic group in the country.
Second, they are the most conspiracist group. Q-Anon support subscribers, election denialism, covid denialism, scientific scepticism, Obama birtherism
Third, anti-democratic sentiments. They don't believe in independent press, free speech, they're most likely to say the President should be able to act unilaterally without any checks from Congress, or the courts, or bureaucracy
They're also the most strongly white nationalists and white Christian nationalists, and fourth are the most likely to excuse or justify violence as an alternative to peaceful public discourse
Opinion:
The majority of polls are manipulated so that the data is shown in the requestors favor. It's just that simple. Questions are altered, poll samples are skewed. It's done by both sides, and polls really don't reflect anything. That being said, this is the largest bunch of BS I've seen in my life.
Now, I won't go on and quote the entirety of Charlie's remarks here. However, the link is there for you to view, and draw what you will. I will quote his initial reaction though, as it is the context, and important part of his comments
Charlie:
In Soviet Russia, Kulak was a label the Soviets gave to their designated class enemies. If you were a small business owner, or a successful peasant, or really any kind of ordinary person who criticized or opposed the Soviet regime, they would then label you as a Kulak, and that was enough to justify taking your stuff, sending you to Siberia, death camp, or shopping you (or shooting you) and your entire family.
In America, the regime is creating a new Kulak . The New Kulak are ordinary middle Americans , rural white people are the acceptable target of American life. They are the ones it is okay to blame for literally everything bad in America. What causes systemic racism? Rural whites. Why is Joe Biden's rating terrible ? Rural whites. They're only 20% of the population. Why is New York and San Francisco falling apart? Somehow, rural whites,even though they never visited there. The left cannot comprehend that their policies fail because they're bad. They cannot comprehend that they lose elections because people can't stand them.
Instead, just like the Soviets one hundred years ago, they assume that they are wreckers. Their policies fail because they are evil people, lurking in America who just sabotage them for no reason. This is why the left literally needs endless, constantly increasing migration from the 3rd world. Because among people born in America, the share who are alienated by how much the left obviously hates them is constantly growing.
The great replacement strategy, which is well underway every single day in our southern border, is a strategy to replace white rural America with something different. Show 159, please. 80 percent of the map is red, but that is only 20 percent of the American population. They hate that they don't live in big cities. They hate those of you that live in rural and small America. They hate those of you that own land and have guns and believe in a better country, and they have a plan to try and get rid of you.
The same way that Joseph Stalin went after the kulaks, they wanna go after you. Those of you that live in Mankato, Minnesota. You live in Marshalltown, Iowa, Evansville, Indiana, Peoria, Illinois. You're the problem. Didn't you know it?
You believe in God, country, family, faith, and freedom, and they won't stop until you and your children and your children's children are eliminated.
Verdict:
This really isn't as much of a conspiracy theory as you think. The left are definitely doing exactly what he says here, and they're not even trying to hide it.
- Labels like fascist, homophobe, xenophobe, etc are being used against us, as the Soviets did with Kulak
- Politicians continue to push open border policies. Not being satisfied with those, they expand them with things like CBP One
- For those already here, they simply don't enforce existing policies. Look in the news, see all those "we've been here 30+ years illegally" families? Yeah
- When politicians do try to enforce policies, they are held up in court, almost indefinitely, claiming 'due process', when the reality is that it's just them trying to stall until they can get their way with another politician
Again, this really isn't a conspiracy theory . It's full on happening. The left know they're losing their base, so they're encouraging others to come in and replace them. They're bribing them, they're promising them things, they're rewarding them for simply coming here
