The fallout from public reactions to the death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk continues to spark controversy, with several individuals losing their jobs after posting critical or celebratory remarks online.
Content creator Jeneane Blacine (@bossupngetitnow) addressed the issue in an Instagram post, sharing frustration at what she sees as a double standard around freedom of speech.
“We all gone be at the unemployment office!!!” she joked, before expanding on the topic in a video.
Blacine noted that while Kirk’s supporters defend his right to free speech, they have actively targeted others for their own online comments.
“So you Charlie Kirk superfans stand 10 toes down that he had freedom of speech — but anyone who is celebrating his death or going against what you believe and utilizing their freedom of speech should be punished by losing their job,” she said amid giggles.
She added that she had personally flagged videos and posts that included racist language or incitements to violence, claiming that of the 13 reports she submitted, seven people have already been fired.
“After gathering more videos inciting violence and pushing racism… I have 11 more in the works,” Blacine said.
The controversy follows multiple high-profile firings. MSNBC political analyst Matthew Dowd was among those dismissed after posting about Kirk’s death.
Meanwhile, right-wing figures, including Laura Loomer, have vowed to pressure employers to take action against individuals who post what they view as offensive remarks.
The debate has reignited long-standing questions about the balance between free expression and workplace accountability.
While employers maintain broad rights to discipline workers over public statements that could reflect on their organizations, critics argue that politically motivated campaigns to have people fired threaten open discourse.
