You're a smart dude. I appreciate your emails (posts), and I plan to check out your YouTubes. God bless you, sir... for being part of the solution in our country. At first glance, America is full of tribal division and hatred, but I believe, I feel in my gut, that we are tired of it all. We are ripe for a revival of kindness, of goodness, and actual love leading well past any sort of detente... to unity. And your pieces, pieces like this one, are what will help open the door for that. Again, God bless you, and thank you, Kaizen.
Thank you. I agree - after Charlie’s death a beautiful revival was starting. Erika’s forgiveness was a healing moment. It’s sad that all of that has been overshadowed by confusion and conspiracism since then - but it shows that people are willing to turn to the better angels of our nature. Keep the faith.
Yes, perhaps it shows human nature at its worst and showcases the darker angels of our nature, but also at the same time (and not to get weird but Charlie Kirk definitely believed in it) I wonder if this isn't also showcasing the influence of the darker angels of a supernature.
The ghoulishness of (some of) the most vile opponents of Charlie after death goes far beyond reason, logic or any selfish interest to be gained.
I too, believe that demons exist and are involved in most of the violent rhetoric around Charlie’s misunderstood words and statements.
After viewing only two of the videos from his assassination you can see some in the crowd cheering it!
How demonic must you be to cheer for blood being spilled in a crowded space where people are having a Q&A or open dialogue about our own society and the political ramifications of the society. Where is the civil public square? Why has it deteriorated so drastically since earlier in our time.
Or as CS Lewis phrased it in "The Screwtape Letters":
"There are two equal and opposite errors into which our race can fall about the devils. One is to disbelieve in their existence. The other is to believe, and to feel an excessive and unhealthy interest in them. They themselves are equally pleased by both errors and hail a materialist or a magician with the same delight."
I love your post and how clarifying you are! We need more people like you that are willing to tell the truth even when it puts you at risk. Charlie was so misunderstood just for the reasons you so eloquently and clearly stated. Thank you so much for fighting the good fight!!! God be with you and protect you. 🙏
I hope thousands of people forward Kaizen's messages about Charlie Kirk. Kaizen provides oxygen, which can save us from the carbon monoxide pouring out of leaders and media. He provides light and clarity where others pour out smoke and confusion.
Who else so effectively challenges us to truly seek True Truth instead of our tribal tunnels?
Who else has the courage to stand on the rocks of reality while waves of confusion and shifting sands erode our culture?
Kaizen and Charlie Kirk humbly and genuinely encourage us to truly seek True Truth.
They readily acknowledge that they do not own the truth. But they want the truth to own them.
They courageously call us to bring our lives into alignment with True Truth rather than trying to bend truth to our tribal preferences.
Kaizen and Charlie point us to magnetic north and a compass. Our tendency is to put a tribal magnet in our pocket and make the compass point at our magnet.
Thank you Kaizen and Charlie for showing us how to courageously confront deceptive and dangerous ideas without attacking people.
Thank you for showing us that people who attack people with lies and violence are revealing the deceptiveness and destructiveness of their ideologies.
Thank you for this post on the anniversary of a terrible murder. Your best comment is "the truth has no color." Why should you even have to make this statement! That is so sad.
Thank you for the videos and explanations of some very misunderstood messages of Charlie's.
I think one of the saddest times in my 84 years of life was the day after Charlie's assassination, a dear family member's response to my sadness was, "But. . . Charlie said some awful things." That word "But" crushed me. How can a nation survive that mentality? It weighs heavy on my heart.
The loudest voices rushing to criticize Charlie are - frankly - (a) people of low intelligence with too much free time or (b) activists/ideologues deliberately mis-characterizing his message with the intention of creating conflict.
I want to see you speaking to college students and teaching them all that you know about the topics you address…just as the magnificent Charlie Kirk did. You are such a breath of fresh air. Thank you for standing up 🫶
In a world of differing opinions not backed by fact, It is a pleasure to read and listen to your commentary on world, political and social issues. The fact that you back your opinions with verifiable facts, puts you in a class with few members. I appreciate you, and encourage you to continue speaking the truth. Hopefully some individuals with radical views will start to think more clearly.
Charlie definitely used some lines to get attention and then he explained what he meant - always intelligent and made us all think deeper about issues. You took the time to listen to his full comments. Once you hear the full comments, it's hard to argue. He was amazing and will be missed. our country is worse off without him!
Kaizen you are absolutely correct. In my life I have learned to understand why people really don't hear what I may have just said in a conversation, its because their minds are already closed and they want to hear what they want to hear! I listened to Mr. Kirk several times and I happen to be listening the day he was murdered, when that moment happened my 1st. thought was, people are killing other people for speaking the truth, he was just trying to catch American before we slipped down the drain into the abyss and lose all common sense! Mr. Kerk was a good man, but that doesn't matter today, because bad is celebrated and good demonized! My husband says we have lost our moral compass, and you know what, I agree with him! G-d Bless all!
I pray that in the NEAR future, some of the loudest naysayers actually listen to his messages. Charlie loved everyone and tried opening eyes to the brilliance of loving one-another, as well as loving yourself enough to see the gifts we all have as soon as we stop victimizing ourselves.
When we can open our hearts and search for inherent truths, be willing to see the errors in our own beliefs, We the People will experience a world that was only ever dreamed of!!
Our government will again work for us, criminals will again fear repercussions, we would immediately recognize propaganda and break the institutions that have been built on those that have gained power and wealth through lies and fear mongering.
Charlie was trying to spread an awakening of who we really are and what we are all capable of. May the Lord help those who have misunderstood, but who are capable of a moment that will shatter their realities and reveal what their influential voices were truly meant to spread.

Thank you for beating this drum with consistency, persistence, and passion. We can only hope it will click eventually.
What a great compilation on this day of all days, reminding and showing us the real Charlie Kirk. Thank you again! I am so grateful for you.

“Kaizen and Charlie”…now that would have been a glorious power.

You can't reason with either.
Thank You for your clear thinking! Truly grateful

This was so well written, I’ll share with anyone who will listen, especially those on the left.

Excellent post, thank you for sharing. I admired Charlie Kirk.
I just want to tell you that I think you’re awesome.
