https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horst-Wessel-Lied
Horst Wessel was a Nazi street fighter of no great distinction. He died in a brawl with some other thugs his landlady had hired.
Because his death played into Party propaganda, he was posthumously raised to secular sainthood. The ballad of his death became a favorite Nazi marching song.
He died in a brawl
Unless I’m misremembering something, he was shot in the face when he opened his apartment door.
late recall: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horst_Wessel Yeah, shot at his door.
He brawled with the shotgun shell, and lost.

If the Germans get wind of this, those plagiarism charges will most certainly nail them to the cross.
The brown shirt loser was overdue on his rent payment and the landlord asked some locals to help him/her out. Well, the locals were communist party members and they really took it out on him.
Communist… landlord enforcers? 🙃
That’s one way to serve an eviction…
While you’re drawing parallels, remind everyone how to stop Nazis.
Remind us 🙏 (tell me for the first time)
I figured this whole thing had legs, like the Wessel story. Appears our attention span is too short to give a shit about a murdered fascist.
At this point the presidential medal of freedom is worth less then the paper crown you get at Burger King.
Arguably, you have more freedom at BK because you can have it your way.
Happy cake day!
He can wear it from his neck piercing.
Ehh… worthless award anymore after he bastardized it already
The award has become less than meaningless after Lush Limbaugh’s.
Just like being president.
or nobel peace prize recipient
Meme from the day Limbaugh died is about my all-time favorite.
Assholes of the earth.
She totally looks like she’s in mourning with the couture black dress and $1,000+ hair cut.
You could tell how sad she was on his podcast vowing to unleash a storm on the democrats or whatever bullshit she said. Genuinely brain dumped it.
I get a Temu Rapunzel vibe from her
Hooooly shit, Charlie Kirk died!?
I didn’t even know he was sick
Why, never heard him speak?
👏
Yup, shot right through the neck while spewing racist bullshit at a university. As someone who campaigned for bringing back public executions, his wife and kids were there to witness, exactly how he wanted it.
Can you believe that the little shit was only in his early 30s? I thought he was at least a decade and a half older. Hate ages you more quickly.
I hope so, since they buried him.
Well… either way…
A lot of medals and awards are going to have asterisks on certain entries in the lists after this.
PED-ophiles?
Who?
Donald J Trumph is the president of the USA
Nobel peace prize loser and president of the United States, Donald Trump
wished i forgot
Ew.
He spreads those things around like syphilis, doesn’t he?
More like herpes. Can’t un-award it
An extraordinary champion of gun rights
He literally said that gun deaths are the price we have to pay for a free society.
I geuss the medal is for his contribution to that cause??
It’s sorta like a participation trophy, yeah
IIRC medals can’t be made of lead
It’s okay, he won’t notice.
Few people have the conviction to die for their beliefs. I don’t think he did either, but he did it anyways so props to him there I guess
Even moreso than the dudes who shot their own dicks to own the libs
“But some of his comments on gun violence, LGBTQ issues, race and more often drew criticism from liberals and others.”
So understated lol
Where is Lee Greenwood with his banger for Ol’ Kirk? God Bless Charlie Kirk maybe?
Will they also introduce a song about him, like Horst Wessel got?
