Political influencers intensify security – and publish through it

For some creators, Kirk’s killing has only crystallized the risks they have long been associated with this profession. “Most of us knew that we are in danger or had a level of threat only through the audience,” says the person behind the organizations, the unknown X account, which tends to the left.

But even small amounts of frequency can affect the final result of the creator. “You should be somewhat open to meet people,” says this person. “Everything is a choice between comfort and safety. Is this thing that you do not do a major event means that you do not get this care? These things are very heavy.”

Instead of retreating, some creators tend to produce political content after killing Kirk, although attacks and attempts to overcome. Kimberly Hunt, a progressive creator of more than 170,000 followers on Tijook, was publicly suffering and says she was expelled from her full -time job as a human resource official after publishing a video clip last week criticizing Kirk and its history Targeting marginalized groups of people. (She did not respond to her employer to request a comment.) Instead of retreat, Hunt says, she is now planning to focus on full -time political content production and established GofundMe to followers to help finance her transfer to independent work.

“You did not close me. I just erased my business schedule,” Hunt said in an Instagram post connected to Gofundme on Tuesday.

As of publication, Hunt raised approximately $ 70,000 to support its channel.

The conservative creator Kam Higbi and a handful of his friends organized a tour on the campus, which started this week in Georgia, to discuss people in honor of Kirk. Soon after Kirk’s killing, Higbi says, he and four of his friends quickly drafted a plan to travel to the state until “money ran out”.

“We really want to show the conservatives who feel very sad, destroy and afraid of the death of Charlie, and that someone will continue and that we will not retreat, and we are not afraid, and that we will defend our thoughts without fear,” he says.

In response to a question about whether the group is taking additional security reserves, Higbi says: “I don’t want to say exactly what we do, because I think it is a kind of security violation itself.”

David Huge, one of the survivors of the shooting on Parkland and an activist to control weapons, was the subject of conspiracies for nearly a decade and witnessed an increase in messages that threaten last week. Shortly after the launch of law enforcement officials, a CCTV image of the suspected divorced women, Chatbot responded from Elon Musk, Grok, to many publications that falsely indicate that Hogg is like a shooter.

“There will always be, whether it is real people, robots, unknown accounts, or anything else, who will make these threats. But this customer of X is incorrectly spitting, claiming that David is the shooter, incredible thing,” “Hogg’s political leaders we deserve.

Kirk’s killing has highlighted a fact that most creators already know: their exposure to their clarity, but their livelihoods depend on survival.

“Part of my rate is” someone who may kill me a tax, “says Orgenizermemes.
