80,000 fans joined Coldplay’s Chris Martin in a spontaneous shoutout to Charlie Kirk’s family at a UK concert over the weekend.
About five people from the London audience hated it, so what does legacy media do? Magnify the hate and mock the band…
Framing the fringe booing as a massive backlash, one headline read, Several Coldplay fans expressed feeling ‘disappointed’ due to the divisive nature of Kirk’s beliefs.

An attendee said on social media that they had walked out, another called the band’s benediction for the martyred Turning Point boss ‘insane’.
Amplifying the apparent ‘cancel Coldplay for cheering on Kirk consensus’, legacy media turned Martin’s goodwill gesture into a reminder that Charlie Kirk didn’t like Coldplay.
Don’t mistake spite for pettiness.
There were gaps in the context of this anti-Kirk clickbait.
Kirk’s video (regarding the incident where Coldplay’s KissCam accidentally revealed an affair) was about sin, adultery, and the need for repentance, not how bad he thought Coldplay’s music was.
In the end, Kirk applauds Coldplay for ‘doing something good for humanity’ such as ‘uniting the internet, by getting everyone to agree that you shall not commit adultery’.
Criticising the angle legacy media chose to spin, Hollywood In Toto’s Christian Toto called out ‘several media outlets for framing a heartfelt display by British rockers Coldplay into a sad, twisted attack’.
He said there is no proof of any ‘mass expression of anger or rage’.
‘It’s almost like they’re wishing the blowback into existence.’
Why, he asked?
Shoddy journalism. Manufacturing a controversy for clicks.
‘Various outlets likely agree with the few voices raging against a band for sending heartfelt wishes to the late conservative and his family,’ Toto concluded.
I think he’s right.
Kirk’s words were left out to curate confirmation bias and reinforce the ‘he only preached hate’ false narrative.
The corrupted far-left fourth estate is losing control.
They’re desperate to retain relevance, and they’re willing to make mistakes when engaging in misdirection.
They hoped no one would notice. That no one would care.
They’re projecting.
Many believe that the sustained language of the media has played a role in the normalisation of political violence.
For example, there is a direct correlation between teaching kids that ‘abortion is healthcare’ and them believing that assassinating their political opponents is ‘healthy’.
Their anger towards those encouraging people to ‘send love to Charlie Kirk’s family’ suggests they’re sympathies rest elsewhere.
There is no difference between this and a vandal smashing a Turning Point memorial to pieces, or activists destroying a family of seven’s car and front lawn to burn down a memorial.
The heartless are tearing into the heartfelt.
Words and tone are not violence; half-truths, and the weaponisation of them is.
It’s time the Left started reflecting more on what they preach.
Here’s Charlie Kirk’s full comments on Coldplay.
