The latest example of the left’s moral bankruptcy landed in our laps when Jezebel published a piece bragging that its writer had paid Etsy “witches” to cast curses on Charlie Kirk — an act so grotesque it rattled his wife, Erika, and left a grieving nation wondering how far the cultural rot has spread. That article was treated as satirical by Jezebel after the outrage, but satire or not, celebrating or joking about harm to a real person is sick and reckless.
Erika Kirk has been publicly shaken by the episode, reportedly seeking prayer and comfort in the immediate aftermath, which only makes Jezebel’s original cavalier tone even more repulsive. Left-wing outlets have a long history of dehumanizing their opponents, but this crosses a line from nasty rhetoric to something morally indefensible. The paper trail shows Jezebel eventually removed the article and appended a note, but removal after the fact is cold comfort to a wife who was frightened and a movement that was targeted.
Let’s be blunt: this came on the heels of the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk on September 10, 2025, and Erika Kirk has since stood tall in the face of unimaginable sorrow, publicly forgiving the man accused in the killing while pledging to carry forward her husband’s mission. Conservatives admire her courage and faith — traits the left mocks until tragedy hits their favored targets, at which point they scramble to sanitize their culpability.
Predictably, vultures on the internet moved in fast, with law enforcement warning about scammers using Erika’s name to trick donations from worried patriots — a tawdry industry that profits off grief and political chaos. This is exactly what happens when media outlets normalize threats and mockery: it creates a marketplace of cruelty where ordinary people pay a price and families are exploited. Local authorities have already flagged phony solicitations and urged people not to click suspicious links, but the broader lesson is that decency and vigilance must return to our public square.
If the left can cheerlead for Etsy curses one day and demand forgiveness for themselves the next, we’re watching performative outrage in real time. Conservatives have been warning for years that the cultural Left’s contempt for free speech and traditional values would metastasize into cruelty; Matt Walsh and others have spent years documenting how radical ideologies erode basic common sense and basic decency, and this fiasco is another chapter in that record. The answer from patriots is simple: expose the hypocrisy, hold media institutions accountable, and rally behind leaders like Erika who refuse to let cowardice and cruelty win.
