This is exactly what the left must atone for. The recent assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025, has ignited a firestorm of debate, with mounting evidence suggesting that leftist groups, particularly the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), may have contributed to an environment of violence through their provocative rhetoric and actions. The timing of the killing—following the SPLC’s inclusion of Kirk and Turning Point USA in its September 9 Hatewatch newsletter—has fueled accusations of stochastic terrorism, where inflammatory language indirectly incites unstable individuals to act.

The SPLC, a self-proclaimed civil rights watchdog, has long tracked extremist groups, but its decision to label Kirk’s organization as part of the “hard right” just a day before his death has raised eyebrows. The newsletter criticized Turning Point USA’s opposition to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, framing it as hate-driven. Critics argue this wasn’t merely analysis—it was a signal, intentional or not, that could embolden lone actors like 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, the suspect arrested for the shooting. The FBI’s subsequent decision to sever ties with the SPLC, announced on October 3, underscores the gravity of these concerns, reflecting a growing conservative push to hold such organizations accountable.

This incident fits into a broader pattern where leftist activism appears to have dialed up the energy, creating a volatile atmosphere. Over the past decade, political violence in the U.S. has seen a rise in left-wing incidents, often tied to opposition against conservative figures or policies, such as immigration enforcement or support for Israel. While historically less frequent than right-wing or jihadist violence, these acts—sometimes spontaneous, sometimes ideologically driven—reveal a lack of strategic coherence but a potent capacity to inspire chaos.

The Kirk assassination, with its lone-wolf nature, mirrors this trend, amplifying calls from figures like President Trump to neutralize what he calls a “radical left network” funding violence.The left’s rhetoric, often cloaked in moral superiority, has increasingly blurred lines between protest and provocation. Groups like the SPLC and the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), by publishing lists of targeted individuals and organizations, risk painting targets on their subjects’ backs. This practice, combined with broader cultural narratives promoting transgenderism and other divisive issues, is said to exacerbate mental instability among vulnerable individuals, turning ideological battles into literal ones. The fallout has seen vigils, like the one held by the New York Young Republicans Club, and a flood of online claims, some misleading, as the public grapples with the tragedy.

Yet, the response need not spiral into further division. As Utah Governor Spencer Cox urged, “Disagree better” could be a path forward, encouraging dialogue over demonization. The left must confront whether its heightened activism—however well-intentioned—has crossed into dangerous territory. The FBI’s break with the SPLC suggests a shift toward scrutinizing these dynamics, but the onus also lies on leftist leaders to de-escalate rhetoric that could inspire violence.

This moment demands introspection. The death of Charlie Kirk, an influential voice, serves as a stark reminder that words have consequences. If leftist groups fail to address how their strategies may contribute to such outcomes, they risk not only losing credibility but also perpetuating a cycle of violence that harms the very society they claim to protect. Accountability, not deflection, is the only way to heal this rift.

This phenomenon aligns with a broader historical pattern where martyrdom galvanizes movements. The death of a leader often serves as a catalyst, turning personal loss into collective action. In Kirk’s case, his influence—built through years of engaging college students and challenging campus orthodoxy—has transcended his physical presence. The doubling of chapter inquiries suggests that his ideas, rather than being buried with him, are resonating more deeply than ever. TPUSA’s goal of establishing a chapter in every high school and college campus in America, once a bold ambition, now seems within reach, driven by a grassroots energy that the left failed to anticipate. This shift challenges the narrative that conservative ideology is losing ground among younger generations, revealing a latent majority that had been underestimated.

The left’s miscalculation stems from a fundamental misunderstanding of Kirk’s appeal. His ability to connect with young people through direct engagement, social media, and a clear articulation of conservative principles created a loyal following that the far left sought to suppress. Instead of diminishing his impact, the assassination has elevated him to a symbol of resistance. The memorial’s scale—featuring a sea of supporters, American flags, and a stage adorned with Kirk’s image—demonstrated the movement’s strength, turning a moment of tragedy into a platform for renewal. Kolvet noted that the influx of new chapter sign-ups includes students from diverse backgrounds, suggesting that Kirk’s message transcended traditional political boundaries, appealing to a broader swath of the population than his critics acknowledged.

The awakening of this majority is not just about numbers; it’s about a cultural shift. The far left’s strategy of silencing dissent through intimidation has backfired, revealing a resilience among conservative youth that was previously underestimated. Andrew Kolvet’s leadership, bolstered by the memory of his friend, positions TPUSA to capitalize on this moment, turning a tragic loss into a transformative victory. As the movement grows, it serves as a stark reminder that attempts to suppress free expression can, paradoxically, amplify the very voices they seek to quiet. In the end, Charlie Kirk’s death may well be the spark that ignites a new era of conservative activism, proving that the majority he inspired is far from silent.
