Death has an interesting effect on people, and I don't mean the people who watch death happen. I mean the person who died.
Once a person dies, they cease being a person and they start being an idea. What they lived their life for becomes more powerful as a result, almost as if through some law of equivalent exchange, the life given lost gives more life to the subject said life focused on. This is why martyrdom is so powerful. Dying for a cause infuses that cause with purpose, power, and longevity.
Charlie Kirk is a martyr for several causes. One was the conservative principles that made the United States of America so great. The other was God, and spreading the word about our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Charlie's approach to doing these things was through conversation, debate, and action. His ability to convey his ideas and destroy false ones was second-to-none. Be as rude as you want; getting under Charlie's skin was a difficult thing to do. He was patient and seemed to have an understanding of those who are lost that many people don't bother to see. It's part of what made him a beacon for those who didn't seem to have a home ideologically or spiritually, and made those who found themselves outside of his own preferences question their own.
This made Charlie especially dangerous. Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words can absolutely change you. As comedian Pete Holmes once said, it's not just sounds from a mammal; we're casting spells on each other. "Words matter. They change our interior world."
Charlie's words threatened the society that Democrats had spent decades creating. They wanted to convince whoever they could that if they weren't on the side of the left, then they were there to do great evil. They labeled people with every social sin imaginable, even if they didn't deserve it. They purposefully puffed up stories to make people seem guilty of awful things, even if they weren't at all. They miscontextualized words and actions, and straight-up lied if they had to.
And every message was the same. If you belonged to a certain group, whether you were a woman, homosexual, a certain race, etc., then the right was out to harm or murder you. That was the message all day, every day.
Charlie was a large piece of the puzzle that proved none of this was true, and it exposed Democrats for the liars and manipulators they were. They couldn't defeat him in the arena of ideas, so they murdered him for it, and they turned Charlie Kirk into an idea, and that idea is spreading like wildfire now.
I want to show you what I mean, starting with this man who came from a poor background. Through hard work, they now make a little bit of money, and his wife bought him a $300 suit. He confesses to never having met Charlie in his life, and in fact, had never been a religious man. However, he's going to take his new $300 and go to church with it, and work on being a better version of himself. What's more, as he says all this, you can tell he's trying to hold back tears.
A man says “I didn’t know Charlie Kirk, never met that guy before in my life … I’m going to wear this suit to church. I’m going to go to church. I’m going to try to be a better father, husband, and leader for my family.”

A deep impact on someone who never knew a thing about Charlie before this, but it doesn't stop there.
This man, who goes to church, noted how, after Charlie's death, his church now has a line to get in where there was never one before.

That's the spiritual impact, but there's also been a political impact as well.
Here are two people who have sworn off ever voting Democrat again after watching Democrats effectively celebrate, or go silent on, Charlie's murder.

A voter says “I am done. I am not going to vote Democrat anymore … I’m seeing a lot of people who were on the left say that they’re no longer going to be on the left anymore.”

Again, Charlie's work revolved around two things: Bringing people to God and saving the United States of America.
His death is doing both of those things right now.
And the more the left celebrates his death or shows ambivalence toward it, the more the people are waking up to the truth.
The Democrat Party is not the party of the people they sold themselves as. They're not the good guys in this fight. They've been the villains all along. They created the culture of murder that took Charlie, and they proved that they will dance on your grave if you simply disagree with them.
But more importantly than that is the fact that Charlie woke people up to the truth about God and showed people that Christ is the true path to peace. People are showing up at church for the first time to hear more, and this is awful news for the left as well. Probably the worst news of all.
Because Christ brings an understanding of humanity and the value of life and the individual. That understanding has been twisted or muddied in various ways by leftist ideology, and when Christ clears that water of obstruction, it exposes the left's uncaring, fear-based ideology that they operate by.
The Democrat Party created this environment, and now they're going to die by it.
