Charlie Kirk got ded, Erika Kirk grifts in place
I think your theory is correct and could be a form of narcissistic injury. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissistic_injury

The Democratic Party
Even with losing bigly, the Democratic Party did a great job of hiding this version of Kamala on the campaign trail.

The history books should include this photo when they talk about the MAGA era in this country. Don't think words can explain it better than this.

100,000 people LARPed at Arizona's stadium on Sunday. The whole MAGA movement is cosplay for people living in an alternate reality. They don't give a shit about Charlie Kirk anymore, that story character was killed off and they will move on quickly.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
If Texas plays well vs. Florida and OU looks blah vs. Kent State, the storyline flips. I'm not saying it should, but that's the modern sports culture.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
Never underestimate the reactionary culture of modern day sports fans. Storylines change on a weekly basis.

Now that his "memorial" service is over, the forgetting of Charlie Kirk begins.

Charlie Kirk Assassinated [Shooter in custody]
So they've had Tyler Robinson in custody for what, 10 days now? Still not cooperating? Here is the latest update from Kash Patel on Sunday via Twitter: What in the absolute fuck is this shit? You have the shooter in custody. I would assume they have access to his phone and computer. Friends and family are cooperating. Do they actually want to "solve" this case regarding motive? Doesn't seem like it.

The Democratic Party
I would say it's rather meaningless. Plenty of stuff on the right gets that type of engagement. Elon in particular. There are also reports that say 60%+ of Twitter users are bots. In regards to AOC and Newsome, I'm glad they are fighting. Whether it's works remains to be seen. We all thought there was Kamala momentum a year ago, and here we are.

The Democratic Party
Well, the Democratic Party could use your help. I'm assuming they've put some of their best and brightest on the case, but they have gotten their ass kicked on social media and YouTube for the last decade.

The Democratic Party
TV is a whole other world from social media. Dems going on Fox "forces" the viewer to watch them (unless they change the channel), that's now how it works on Twitter. Musk controls the Twitter algorithm. Also, he manipulates his AI Grok (which many users rely on for "facts") anytime it feeds answers that he feels are too "woke" or whatever. No one on the right is seeing AOC or Pete or Bernie tweets, unless they are being retweeted with criticism from the right. No one on the left is seeing right winger tweets unless they are retweeted by the left with criticism. The algorithm isn't interested in expanding viewpoints, it's wants to do the exact opposite. The misinformation/disinformation is staggering, to the point that even Dem accounts fall into that trap. And again, most of the large left-leaning accounts are still on Twitter. And it is still accomplishing nothing.

The Democratic Party
This sounds like something Schumer or Jeffries would believe. It's copium from a bygone era. I agree that BlueSky is fairly worthless, but Twitter is cooked. The platform, algorithm, and "AI" is completely corrupted. There are plenty of leftist/dems that still engage, and nothing moves the needle.

Houston Texans 2025 Season Thread
This interview is bleak. This doesn't look like a guy that believes in himself or the team anymore. Did I read that CJ was wearing a Mariners hat recently? And now a Yankees hat in this PC? WTF.

It's never about the truth with right wingers, narrative is all that matters. And they don't like the narrative that a white kid from Utah wanted to kill Charlie Kirk.- Charlie Kirk Assassinated [Shooter in custody]
A woman cannot lead Charlie Kirk's movement. It is antithetical to everything he stood for.- Arch Manning: Scores every way possible
There was a time when Sports Twitter was great. Now it's just Politics Twitter with nothing but grievances, trolling, and engagement bait. Is nothing sacred.- Houston Texans 2025 Season Thread
Amazing how quickly everything went to shit. All that hype after 2023 season is gone. Ooof.- whose name was on the palm of your glove growing up?
Kelly LeBrock. Oh, baseball glove? Lenny Dykstra.- Charlie Kirk got ded, Erika Kirk grifts in place
I think we are almost at 10 days of Tyler Robinson being in custody. Is he still not cooperating? No more updates besides that one text conversation?- Arch Manning: Scores every way possible
I implore people not to take the bait with Arch stuff on social media. Everyone is an engagement whore so he is an easy target. Was it a little much talking shit to the SHSU player? Sure. But he did this all the time last year. He mean mugged after the A&M run, showed a lot of emotion on TDs vs. Colorado State and UTSA as well. He almost looked depressed running in for a score last week vs. UTEP. Maybe a bit of an overcorrection, but the reality is he's an emotional guy and the players and coaches want this version of him.- Game thread: Texas vs Sam Houston

I'm still trying to wrap my head around this: So 100,000 people, including Trump/Vance and most of his administration, will be in attendance less than 2 weeks after Kirk was assassinated in public. The amount of security needed to properly protect people is enormous. Will this be a peaceful, somber presentation? Or will Trump try to rile people up against "the left"? Just seems like a powder keg moment.- Mainstream media boycott
The sports teams and influencers themselves have made it an issue. We have NFL stadiums giving moments of silence to a political YouTuber. We have Dave Portnoy/Barstool bros infecting everything with their MAGA shit. We have Quinn Ewers wearing Trump stuff on camera. We have Joe Rogan and Tony Hinchcliffe as "celebrities" on the field at DKR. Ignorance is not an excuse. The sports need to stick to sports. - Charlie Kirk got ded, Erika Kirk grifts in place
