Far-Right Podcaster Gets Epic Fact-Check After Claiming Charlie Kirk Never Called Anyone A 'Fascist'

White nationalist podcaster Stefan Molyneux tried to push back at anger over President Trump's post about Rob Reiner's death by claiming that Charlie Kirk never called anyone a "fascist"—and was instantly proven wrong.

Stefan Molyneux, an Irish-born Canadian White nationalist podcaster who promotes conspiracy theories, White supremacy, scientific racism, and the men's rights movement, jumped to MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's and his fellow hatemonger Charlie Kirk's defense on X.

Writer Peter Rothpletz (Peter Twinklage) shared Trump's widely criticized Truth Social post about Rob Reiner after the actor, writer, director, philanthropist, and activist and his wife were murdered.


Twinklage captioned the share:

"imagine the reaction if a Democrat spoke this way about Charlie Kirk"

Rightwing podcaster Molyneux, who claims his racist White nationalist rhetoric is "philosophy," reshared Rothpletz's post with a defense of both Trump's post and Kirk's public statements.

Molyneux claimed:

"Charlie Kirk didn’t spout hatred and call people 'fascists' and 'racists'"
"Close your mouth"

Molyneux's post was almost immediately hit with a community note correcting his misinformation.

X users noted:

"Charlie Kirk called Joe Biden a fascist."

The required proof to support the added context was a link to one of the many times Kirk called someone a fascist.

People were happy to do Molyneux's due diligence, fact checking for him since he was either incapable or unwilling. It was extremely easy to find multiple instances where Kirk called people both fascist and racist.

Many included screenshots, just in case the self-proclaimed philosopher missed the community note attached to his post.

Even conspiracy theorists who believe Trump killed Kirk with the help of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the cooperation of Kirk's wife Erika to create MAGA's Horst Wessel took time out of their busy days to correct Molyneux on his misinformation.

People wondered if Molyneux figured out how wrong he was about what Charlie Kirk did or didn't say and do.

Or if he always knew he was lying.

Molyneux has yet to respond with anything substantive to the many corrections to his entirely false, easily debunked claim.

Stay-At-Home Mom Offers Dire Warning For Other Moms After Husband Suddenly Files For Divorce

We've all heard the advice to not put all of our eggs in one basket, and while we generally think of that in terms of work, so that if one form of income dries up, we'll have a backup plan, it can apply to our relationships, too.

While it's perfectly okay to be in a monogamous relationship, we shouldn't place all of our happiness in our partner, or measure our sense of self-worth solely through the relationship, and it can be risky to fully depend on our partners financially.
