So this is a video of white supremacist Neo-Nazi Nick #Fuentes, who hated Charlie Kirk for not being radical enough.

#Kirk, for example, spoke out against antisemitism (which led him to be a rabid supporter of the genocide in Gaza 🤡) and Fuentes, being a rabid antisemite, kept calling him out for it.

Context for video: "Turning point USA" is the organization co-founded by Kirk. "Groypers" are supporters of Fuentes.

The killer of Charlie Kirk appears to have been inspired by Nick Fuentes.

Video of a stream by Nick Fuentes. On the left some tweets by Kirk in which he "calls out" antisemitism, on the right Fuentes in a suit.
