I actually can’t imagine watching her speech and believe that she’s genuine. Not a tear 😭🙏

A bit. Forgiveness is something we do for ourselves to allow us to heal and not focus energy or harboring hate and negative thoughts. It’s not for the person we’re forgiving. Has she really gotten to that point in the grieving process? Probably not. Is it something she probably wants to based on religious teachings and personal morals? Yeah. Is it something she’ll want to capitalize on? Also very much yes

I know forgiveness is a hard concept to understand for people who don’t believe that Jesus died for the sins of all, including those who killed him

I think that last part kinda invalidates the rest tbh.

You can capitalize on real feelings just as much as you can on false ones

Not really. Nobody in genuine grief would even think about turning their husband’s death into a cash grab. Erika Kirk was a reality TV star and a pageant girl before she married Charlie Kirk

Oh they so would. For someone of her caliber it definitely fits into the denial, anger, and depression stages. Avoiding those feelings by throwing yourself into work about it, he’s not really dead if you’re carrying on his work, etc. She is genuinely mourning the guy. She is going through the grieving process

Capitalizing off your spouses murder is premeditated lmfao it’s not denial, anger, or depression. You have no clue what you’re talking about dude.

I think you’re just pissed off she’s not grieving the way you want her to. Which is fine she’s publicly grieving in a shitty way. Also you can’t premeditate that lmao. She didn’t plan for her husband to die so she could take over his company and make money off it. She’s certainly got advisors telling her what to do and speech writers and social media managers controlling her image, which is diluting her actual grieving process from what we see, methodical or not it’s still part of her process

That’s what premeditated means dumbass. As in her public grieving is PLANNED OUT. Not that she conspired to kill him. She had someone post videos and photos of her kissing the waxy hands of her husband’s cadaver and 48 hours after that she was asking for donations (she’s a multimillionaire btw) ranging from $1-$100,000. It’s pretty obvious where this woman’s priorities were within the first 24 hours of her husbands death lmfao.

Yeah but she’s not the one premeditating it, and it’s not in the sense of some big conspiracy. Tbh she’s really just following instructions rn, which tbf, if I lose my spouse traumatically and suddenly I’d just follow the instructions too. I do think there’s genuine truth in a lot of her statements, like this one, or it’s based in what she hopes to be true. But we’ll just have to agree to disagree on this bc we’ll argue in circles all night otherwise

I assume the donations were supposed to go to TPUSA, not funeral costs, right?

I don’t remember her ever calling for donations, just a lot of other right wing figures setting up go fund mes and givesendgos on her behalf. But it’s also a fair assumption at least part of the cost of the funeral is coming from tpusa funds and donations would go to covering that

She did say that quote but if she’s soliciting donations, I assume it’s for TPUSA and not funeral costs

Read the screenshot from snopes again. There doesn’t appear to be evidence that she set this up herself. Hell, this could literally be a scam. In fact, whatever tf facts-76.com is seems sus af 💀 you will not catch me clicking a link some random number texts me

It does look very scam like, tpusa has their own secure network set up for donations, and there is a legit one on their website (that hasn’t been linked to the family either)

Comparing a random podcaster to Jesus Christ is reaching levels of blasphemy so offensive that even atheists are clutching their pearls

Also it’s not that forgiveness is a hard concept to grasp, it’s just that we have eyes and a brain and can tell when a person is being opportunistic and exploiting a tragedy for financial gain.
