We don’t know about you, but we’ve returned from our Fourth of July holiday more committed than ever to protecting our democracy against extremism. So let’s get back to learning about Turning Point USA!
We recently read how Turning Point USA’s founder, Charlie Kirk, is trying to normalize his brand of extremism and make it seem “cool” to young men. Now let’s watch award-winning journalist and author Kyle Spencer explain how Kirk does this, and how, like Donald Trump, he presents anger and rage as acceptable responses to democratic progress being made in our country.
You can see in the clip that Kirk tells his audience directly that “well-armed and disruptive men are the hope, not the problem.” It’s plain to see just how dangerous he and his extremist organization are, and they have the attention of more than 10 million of our young people online!
So what can we do about it? Watch for next week’s Easy A action and we’ll take on this problem together!
