The reason Kirk's death will ultimately have little impact is that Internet Influencers (which is really what he was) don't leave anything behind that matters. I know he wrote a few books but they're all too "of the moment" to matter long term or even in the short term. You go into any goodwill and all you see is piles of Political books from 5, 10, 20 years ago. They're all screaming at you about some issue on the cover that mattered then and seems rather quaint now. I'm not arguing Political books don't matter but most of them are not forward looking. They're not a thesis for a movement. They're frozen in the moment. And moving beyond that most of the work he (and other's like him on both sides) do isn't going be consumed by anyone in 5 years. Even those who are strictly doing entertainment and not politics online are going to run into this problem of their work aging terribly or even becoming inaccessible eventually. So much of what we consume online now will be lost media in 15 to 20 years. No one is going to be sitting there in 2045 and pointing their kid to some video of Charlie Kirk owning a liberal. He won't even be able to relate to any of it. It will be too of this moment. We're living in the age of disposable content, disposable art, and ultimately disposable people. I think you can still have an impact long term but you have to be able to separate your beliefs from the moment you're living through and make them universal. No one does that anymore. It's all about the latest battle.

The reason his death didn't have much impact are twofold:

1: MAGA overreached when people were celebrating his death, and even to normies it was clear they were using "boo hoo, libs are so mean and violent!" as a cover for trying to outlaw any speech critical of them.

2: Kirk was an asshole and no one actually liked him. They liked that he "owned the libs," but as a person he was pretty shitty.

He was also fundamentally a Zionist civic nationalist, despite the lib effort to portray him as a "nazi", which at the very least damaged his e-cred to the point that it stymied the effort to turn him into Horst Wessel
