The ‘yankification’ of British politics continues with Turning Point drawing attention to whatever the hell these people are supposed to be
I’m literally hearing Catholic faith ministers in Europe on the radio speak about Charlie Kirk as if he was some sort of religious icon, when normally they wouldn’t care less about local pop culture figures in other countries who weren’t even Catholic.
I suspect that whatever succeeded Cambridge Analytica and is getting financed by the oligarchs now toppling the US government has now also moved on from just targeting influencers online to more traditional influencers that will freely spread their whitewashed portrayal on their mediums. They sort of have to do this because, like Russia discovered as they began their war with Ukraine and Trump did when COVID happened during his first term, their foreign propaganda breaks apart when they have been artificially imposed on local talking with very different perspectives - they have to normalize the talking points on those most vulnerable yet most influential so that they are all brainwashed in generally the same way and spread the same emotionally based drivel filled with half truths and outright lies.
It’s bad enough dealing with this hyper hatred in the US. When hate groups spread to other countries, it should be labeled as an international terrorist group.
You know, if this was a Muslim group, this would be front page news and a moral panic, and there would be debates on if we should ban this group.
UK moment. If this was a Muslim group, they would have been hauled off for “terrorism” well before the story hit the press.
May they all follow in Charlie’s footsteps.
It’s very interesting how quickly narratives can be built. I’ve been exposed to TPUSA talking points for a full decade now and it’s completely obvious Charlie Kirk was not seeking any kind of truth sincerely.
That is the difference between rhetoric and philosophy. He only wanted to win.
Now we all just have to pretend like Kirk wasn’t peddling ideologies that dearly want to silence those who disagree with them. Free speech evangelist my ass.
Call 1-800-LUFT-WAFFE…this time, we are the good guys. The sad part, I could see the fucking losers gaining ground with the MAGAts.
British Black Shirts? … are they just repeating history and patterns at this point?

Ah, you made the dog whistle connection. That wasn’t supposed to happen, you weren’t supposed to notice that, it was only for them.
it’s almost like they’re trying to make a bad impression
Didn’t TPUK push Hitler did nothing wrong? Yaaaaaa. I remember Klandyce making that comment with Charlie on stage with her.
Religion is a cancer on society
Ahah! The mask comes off!
What a cancerous organization… crazy that it is going global.
Can we ban turning point UK and all other American social media platforms for that matter.
Although what they did in soho does seem pretty based, but yanks out
Just looked into king’s army, they’re not blackshirts at all. Still wary about their affiliations with TPUSA, though
Seems like this article is biased and doesn’t even know what it’s talking about. Isn’t this basically a new take on the Salvation Army? Not my cup of tea, really, but this article is quite conspiratorial
Digging deeper, “the canary” is just taking stuff out of context.
King’s Army soldiers believe we are at war with sin and the devil. We see life like a battlefield that is split down the middle, with two opposing armies on each side.
On one half of the battlefield (life/light) (Col 1:12) are The King’s soldiers (Christians). (2 Tim 2:3)
On the other half of the battlefield (death/darkness) (Col 1:13), are Satans soldiers (Demons)
Behind enemy lines, trapped in trenches, deep in darkness, and sinking in swamps of sin, are the casualties of war. They are the dead (spiritually), or dying lost souls. (1 Pet 2:9)
These are children of The King (2 Cor 6:18) who were deceived, and drawn away by their own selfish desires (James1:14).
They are devoid of escape from the snares of the devil, having being captured by him to do his will. (2 Tim 2:26)
Hidden here are legions of sons and daughters blinded to the truth. (2 Cor 4:4)
Their hearts have been poisoned by a terminal virus called sin, for which there is no earthly cure. (Jer 17:9)
There is however, a heavenly antidote. This antidote is hidden in the form of a bullet, a salvation bullet, containing one drop of God’s Holy blood.
When fired from the weapon of the Gospel (2 Cor 6:7), the bullet finds its target (black heart) and there the salvation serum is released. It swims into the blood stream, reversing the terminal death process and bringing life everlasting. (1 Pet 2:9).
We believe the mission given from the King to all of his soldiers, is to take back that which was stolen! (Matt 28:19) (Col 1:13)
There is NOTHING here promoting actual violence. Still a bit weird, but the canary is also promoting the fearmongering conspiracy theories which also caused someone to murder Charlie Kirk in the first place
