Even in a suit shop, Charlie Kirk’s name came up today.
Buying a new suit. Older gentleman helping me out, part time job to get out of the house.
He asks why I need the suit. I say I’ve got meetings in DC this week.
“You saw what happened to Charlie Kirk?” he says.
“Absolutely.”
We go back and forth. He tells me his son got him into Charlie’s content a couple years ago, how much he loved it.
He’s in his 60s, fired up, sharing what we talk about here like it’s brand new to him. He posts on Facebook, debates people, lives for it.
Then he asks if I’m on Facebook. I tell him no, only X. He says his son’s on X. I tell him, tell your son to follow me.
He texts his son my handle.
His son replies, “holy shit, that’s Peter B, I already follow him.”
He takes a picture with me and sends it to his son.
That’s the power of X.
What happened to Charlie Kirk is changing the world.
