In case you were wondering how media in different countries assess the US’ situation, one of Austria’s most read newspaper did a cover story on the Kirk assassination, describing it as the US edging closer to civil war. Apologies that it’s in German, I’ve translated the title at least.

    The article starts by stating

    eines musste man ihm zugestehen: Der charismatische ultrarechte Influencer hat nie zu Gewalt gegen politische Gegner aufgerufen.

    In English:

    One thing you had to acknowledge him for: the charismatic ultra-right influencer has never called for violence against political opponents.

    Which is absolutely false. Sad to see that the right-wing whitewashing propaganda of Charlie has influenced international media.
