For those who need a refresher on Fuentes, Kirk, and the Groyper wars, here are some excerpts from our book, Meme Wars:
With allies like former Tea Party star Michelle Malkin, too edgy for conservatives but too pragmatic and polished for wignat street fighting, Fuentes set out to build a new right-wing coalition heading into the election year of 2020. But this was not going to be a big tent; who was excluded was just as important as who was included. The first target of what would become the Groyper wars was Charlie Kirk, as the most visible, and therefore most reachable face of the young conservative
Kirk was about to embark on a national campus tour titled "Culture Wars," where he was supposed to build a broad student coalition in support of Trump. A veteran of the college circuit, Kirk was poised to lead the young Republican wing of the party. He and his TPUSA had taken heat for their proximity to the alt-right at political and campus events in 2017 and 2018, and Kirk publicly denounced white supremacy after Unite the Right.
For Fuentes, Kirk and TPUSA embodied everything that was wrong with conservatives who upheld the liberal consensus by promoting Israel, gay rights, and softer immigration policies. Kirk had been in Fuentes's sights during the years as he soured on campus conservatives. Getting

to the top tier of Trumpworld was nearly impossible for someone as marginal as Fuentes, but opportunity struck in October 2019, when Kirk took TPUSA's Culture War college tour on the road. Kirk brought Trumpworld to campuses across the nation with special guests like Senator Rand Paul, Donald Trump Jr., Kimberly Guilfoyle, Lara Trump, and congressman Dan Crenshaw. Like when Richard Spencer, Shapiro, or Yiannopoulos would book campus tours, Kirk's events too often attracted protest from left-wing student groups. But this time, the attacks would come from their right.
Beginning on October 7 at the University of Nevada, Kirk set a tone where debate was encouraged, even allowing those who disagreed with him to move to the front of the line during Q&A.
Ever since

The groypers wanted Charlie Kirk to be purer, more extreme in his anti-Semitism, etc.. Such intolerance of equivocation, along with the enforcement of purity with assassination, check off items 3, 7, and 8 on Lifton's list.

I'm signing two landmark bills to strengthen California’s fight against hate and antisemitism in schools — creating new accountability systems and requiring stronger responses.

As antisemitism and bigotry rise nationwide, we’re taking action to confront hate in all its forms.

Country legend Zach Bryan has released a song that puts country over his own bank account.

The backlash from country fans will be massive- they’ll force him off country radio like they did to the Dixie Chicks but he doesn’t need radio access anymore

Utah GOP passed a congressional map, in response to a court ruling forcing them, that makes 2 of the state's 4 ruby red districts much tighter — though neither of them leans blue as the spirit of the ruling asked for.

One should be quite competitive next year, the other in a (very) blue wave.

Stop bashing 🇨🇦 PM Carney because he won't start a war with the demented guy in the White House. The PM is being diplomatic and handling him with kid gloves because the madman could make matters far worse for Canada on a whim. If anyone doesn't understand that, I'm glad they're not in government.

#nzpol The Reserve Bank has cut the official cash rate by 0.5%. That sounds great. But banks only cut interest rates that much when the economy is in trouble - and not when things are going well. This cut is a sign of economic weakness, not strength. A 😄🧵
