Boy howdy, are they ever. MAGA Conservatives in the U.S. have organized to doxx them: https://www.charliesmurderers.com/.
This is not a doxxing website. This website is a lawful data aggregator of publicly-available information. It has been created for the purposes of public education.
The lot of them seem keen on applying untoward pressure and harassment against their ideological opponents, casting their own tactics as terrorism when used by anyone left-of-center. Turns out that they aren't so liable to apply the moniker of 'snowflake' to their own reactions.
The website is actually on Squarespace, which means we can report them for violating Squarespace's Acceptable Use Guidelines! https://www.squarespace.com/acceptable-use-policy/
Report by emailing abuse@squarespace.com
They also registered the domain through namecheap so can report to them as well based on their TOS agreement here: https://www.namecheap.com/legal/domains/rdap-tos/
Reported them. Takes a few minutes at most. Everyone do this. You can fight back without firing a weapon yet.
That domain needs more reports for abuse of tos.
I’m not sure it’s actually abusing, but it would be fun to figure out who made it and doxx them.
I don't even know why that site is still allowed to be up. Based on what I was reading yesterday, it seems to be violating laws...
It would be terrible if the email (expose@charliesmurderers.com) associated with this doxxing site were to be flooded with spam and false reports. Nobody here would be unethical enough to automate something like that, right?
This is why you keep your shit private. Do not friend your boss on any social. Do not friend your coworkers on any social that you might say some shit on.
This is one of the reasons the Dark Forest theory is a good way to approach the 'net. Not that I celebrate Kirk's death anyway, but...still. Lots of vengeful little Reich wing Karens itching to cancel everyone they disagree with.
Everything is projection with the Reich wing. EVERYTHING. The only cancel culture is theirs, and they love the real political correctness, and really love policing that political correctness.
What an abhorrent country...
They're just trying to honor his memory by cynically weaponizing tragedy. It's what he'd have wanted.
The leader of a Norwegian far left (not quite Marxist) youth party organization Rød Ungdom had to leave her position after she posted a sarcastic video about "oh no, how awful" it is that he died.
To be fair, she's an extremist cunt and the parent party Rødt (Norwegian Red Party) have probably been looking for a godd enough reason to oust her for some time now.
Oh, will you all just start fighting already?
I just want it over with already. Civil war 2 will end pretty quickly because no one in the US has any idea what was actually looks like.
I’m going to get downvoted for this but we on the left get people fired too
No matter how you actually feel about Charlie Kirk’s death, no matter how deserving he was of these comments, posting them with your government name attached to it is a bad move
The problem is that the left gets people cancelled for hate speech. The right gets people cancelled for objective truth. Read the comments that people are getting fired for. It's a blatant doouble standard that shifts the overton window on public discourse. Fascist bigots are running the country, and there's no room for compromise with hate.
I completely agree with you on principle. My problem is that I don’t make “fuck you” money and whether we like it or not, seemingly half the country disagrees with our views. I can’t be starting fights and setting myself back over a YouTuber’s death.
Everyone doing this sort of thing is sure that he's the one speaking objective truth while his enemies are evil and destroying the country. The sight of so many people on the other side equally sure that they're actually the ones speaking the objective truth ought to cause some self-doubt but it seldom does.
There really are people out there who are evil and people who are destroying the country (not necessarily the same people) but we either have rules for everyone or rules for no one. "Rules for them but not for me, since I'm speaking objective truth" is, in effect, rules for no one.
I cannot remember a single incident where the left ran a coordinated campaign to achieve mass doxings or firings of rightists. Not even those advocating for violence against minorities, which is a rampant, long-running problem. Maybe it’s because “the left” is not the monolith of violence, terror, and oppression that the Republican party and their international proxies are, but nevertheless this is a false equivalence, even if you did not intend for it to be.
There is a distinction without difference in terms of what you define as "coordinated" but there have been a decent number of folk over the years (less so in 2025...) who have been identified for being racist either in their own social media posting or when getting video taped by others who were doxxed and fired. A quick google brings up "Lilly Gaddis" who was apparently a "trad wife tiktokker" who was fired after using the n-word in a cooking video (also I thought the point of trad wifing was that you let some redneck stick it in you so you didn't have to work but...).
Which is kind of the reality of the world. Yes, it is fucking infuriating to see people getting rounded up and fired for expressing relief at the death of a nazi who regularly called for the death of them and/or their loved ones. But it is also important to understand that we are ALL "PR" for our companies in the modern internet. We just don't get any training. And someone doing crotch chops and making "protect ya neck" jokes about the violent murder of someone doesn't reflect too well on KFC (for Popeye's its just another Tuesday). And people need to be aware of that.
Its why: I have a LOT of fun with my various burners like this one (speaking of, it may be time to cycle this account). But on the social media with ties to my government name? I popped a few reposts on the tamer messages by my trans friends and then just texted/called them or went out for drinks. Because... this is late stage capitalism and I gotta eat. Which goes into the whole contrast of support and survival which is a very long conversation.
Could someone do a deep dive on everything I have ever said and figure out who I really am? Of course. But... anyone who knows who I am knows that I was not at all shaken up and got REALLY cheerful midway through the work day. But the difference is that that isn't me actively representing my company as someone who cheers for the murder of nazis.

That may be true but it is important to show colors. Not just so the fascist know that there is still resistance, but also that your allies know that they are not alone.
I agree with you in principle. I just think, for the majority of people, it's not worth the risk of getting fired and getting set back in life for public comments over a YouTuber's death. I'm not saying there are no hills to die on, this just doesn't seem like the one.
I said this in a reply to someone else but my issue here is risk assessment, not whether the comments are abhorrent or not. I've read enough accounts regarding different periods of history where citizens turned each other in. If I'm going to get fired, doxxed, turned in, etc., I would want it to be over something that means more than opinions shared of Charlie Kirk.
So...Kirk was platformed specifically FOR his hate speech, but anyone not exactly sad about his death should be cancelled? Just trying to make sure I understand. The people being cancelled by the right wing doxxers are not calling for political violence, they are just dancing on the grave of someone who DID call for political violence. Doesn't seem like we are talking apples and apples here.
As for saying stuff attached to your name - I get the Dark Forest theory; I practice it myself. No way in fucking hell I'm saying anything even mildly controversial in a public platform so that overly-emotional right wing children can give me any my family members death threats (any more[1]). Not that I say anything I think is even remotely controversial by a reasonable person, anyway.
It's not that I'm the least bit afraid of any of these RW keyboard warriors if they'd fight fair, man on man, but I know they won't. They would likely do a drive-by type thing and/or target my family members. Or try to get me fired for disagreeing with Nazis online....
[1] I learned my lesson long, long ago - I used to use my real name most everywhere. Got into some arguments with radicalized right wingers, and they tried to get me fired from my job. Thankfully the owner of the company at the time had my back and told them to get bent. I've had incidents of them posting/DMing/emailing my address and some of my family name members making not-so-veiled threats.
…should be cancelled?
No. I intended my comment to be more of a statement on risk assessment. Seemingly half the country is on the right. A non-insignificant portion of them would probably be empathetic to Charlie Kirk’s death.
If I’m reading the rest of your comment correctly, I’d say we are in agreement. I don’t condone the right getting people fired over this, I don’t think it’s fair, and I don’t think it’s right of them to do so. But I do think the right trying to get people fired was foreseeable and it surprises me just how many people have attached their names to their comments, especially if they aren’t set up financially to deal with any potential fallout.
This is not merely the escalation of political violence against the right’s out groups, it is the proliferation of a culture of right wing terrorism. They said it was civil war, and while that rhetoric has tempered due to the unsurprising discovery that the assassin was yet another right wing radical, they fully intend to escalate their civil war goals by robbing opponents of their means to survive in our capitalist hellscape of a country.
This is my advice, if you find someone who has had their livelihoods stolen from them for expressing relief at a slightly kinder world, share their employer. Share the website, the Yelp, flood them with emails and 1-star reviews letting them know that terrorism will not be tolerated.
The republicans said we are war. It may not be a war of bullets and bombs, at least not yet, but do not doubt them.
