Communist paramilitary gangster #AliHöhler on #ThisDayInHistory in 1930 shot the #StormTrooper/#SA thug #HorstWessel, who died of his wounds in late February. The #NaziParty made Wessel a martyr for their #fascist crusade against #socialism. Hitler had Höhler murdered in 1933.

I will officially now and forever only refer to Charlie Kirk as "that guy they turned into a martyr" or if you're into the whole brevity thing; #WorstVessel

#ClubAmerica = #HitlerYouth

Apparently, our Hitler Youth is going to be called Club America & Kirk is Horst-Wessel. I hate this fucking timeline.

Der Youtuber "Three Arrows" argumentiert, dass die Ermordung von #CharlieKirk ähnlich instrumentalisiert wird wie die von #HorstWessel damals von den #Nazi. Ich finde da ist mehr dran als der Vergleich zum #Reichtagsbrand.

The Myth of Charlie Kirk

YouTube

Four-panel comic by @sophielabelle about a certain nazi named Horst Wessel who might spring to mind given recent events.

#horstwessel, #charliekirk, #josephgoebbels, #nazis, #sophielabelle

#StephenMiller's violent speech had echoes of #JosephGoebbels, with similar calls to action as those made about the #HorstWessel killing, the SA "martyr"/thug. He made appeals to "civilization" in similarly Nazified language, with references to slave societies as its producers.

'the parallels between what the Nazis did with #HorstWessel and what trump/MAGA are doing, are striking, chilling– and...straight out of the same toxic, but dog-eared, playbook..

..the moment kirk was shot, the American political right swung into action. What they accomplished over the ensuing days was a masterclass in #propaganda, demonstrating how well they deploy the #media machine they built and how powerful that machine can be.'
