“Debating” people isn’t even what he did. He just espoused bad faith arguments openly. For instance, two different coroners corroborated that Floyd was killed via asphyxiation. Yet, Kirk a community college dropout with no formal education or medical education would say definitively, “Oh, Chauvin was innocent. Floyd was already dying. It was a fentanyl overdose. Chauvin should be pardoned. He’s innocent.”
He basically argued from radical skepticism standpoint, and it’s extremely hard to prove a negative. For example, how do we REALLY know there is not a green swan somewhere? How do we really know black people aren’t just intellectually inferior? More bestial? More prone to violence? All White supremacist logics operate off these kinds of tactics.
This guy platform Steve Sailer and Curtis Yarvin on his show.
Steve Sailer is a well known white nationalist and eugenicist who makes arguments that blacks are genetically inferior.
Here is what he had to say about him.
Joining us now is Steve Sailer, who I find to be incredibly interesting, and one of the most talented
noticers,” Charlie Kirk said on his
internetshow in October. Kirk, the 30-year-old founder of Turning Point USA, a right-wing youth organization, slowed down as he said “noticers,” looked up at the camera, and coyly flicked his eyebrows.
That term—
noticer—has become a thinly veiled shorthand within segments of the right to refer to someone who subscribes to “race science” or “race realism,” the belief that racial inequities are biological. In his interview with Kirk, Sailer
noticed that “Blacks tend to commit murder about 10 times as often per capita as whites, and it’s not just all explained by poverty.” Sailer, one of the most prominent peddlers of race science in the United States, has made a career out of noticing things. (Last year, he published an anthology of his writing titled
Noticing.) He has claimed that Black people tend to have
lower IQs than white people (while Asians and
Ashkenazi Jews tend to have higher IQs). Sailer says that nurture plays a role, but generally concludes that differences between racial groups exist in large part because of inherent traits.
Later in the interview, Sailer praised racist eugenics scientist and white nationalist
Charles Murray, describing him as his “idol.” Sailer also recommended to Kirk’s audience that they read Murray’s books.
