He\u2019s the 32-year-old reported Antifa activist who was stabbed to death around 4:00 a.m. in Brooklyn on Monday. I said that, among other things, his killing shows the importance of knowing your surroundings and taking proactive steps to protect yourself and your family. Leftists can call it whatever they want \u2014 stereotyping, racial profiling, white supremacy, whatever. The truth is that it\u2019s common sense to get out of a situation when you assess that you\u2019re unsafe. If an agitated young male in a hoodie starts kicking mopeds and ranting and raving in front of you, as Ryan Carson\u2019s killer did, then you don\u2019t stare at him. You don\u2019t tell him to \u201cchill\u201d or shove him several times in the chest. Especially when he says \u201cI\u2019ll kill you,\u201d you need to get yourself and your loved ones as far away as you can. If someone calls you racist because of that, then that\u2019s their problem. Better to be alive and \u201cracist\u201d than dead and tolerant.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Over the last 48 hours, though, it\u2019s become very clear that the murder of Ryan Carson is about much more than what Ryan Carson did, or failed to do, at 4:00 a.m. on Monday morning in Brooklyn. The response to Carson\u2019s killing, from all corners of the Left \u2014 from Carson\u2019s friends, to local politicians, to the media \u2014 doesn\u2019t simply tell us that leftists are hopelessly naive and ignorant of very real threats to their lives. This is a lot bigger than that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The response to Ryan Carson\u2019s killing also makes it clear that leftists simply don\u2019t care about human life, or humanity in general. We know that because they\u2019re not even going through the motions of demonstrating some pretense of concern for Carson, much less the policies that led directly to his death. What this means is that leftism is collectivism in every sense and at every level. It views its own adherents not as people, but as replaceable, fungible cogs in the revolution. It uses its own followers as cannon fodder in the culture war. One death is irrelevant.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/episode\/ep-1237-the-matt-walsh-show\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WATCH: The Matt Walsh Show<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We can debate when this began, or whether it\u2019s always been the case. But it\u2019s impossible to dispute that the Left is openly admitting this now. Consider the fact that within hours of Ryan Carson\u2019s death, his Left-wing friends <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gofundme.com\/f\/ryan-carson\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">set up a GoFundMe<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. But they didn\u2019t create this GoFundMe to cover funeral costs, or to help Carson\u2019s family. Instead, Carson\u2019s friends set up this GoFundMe so that people would pay them to skip work. That\u2019s not an exaggeration; it\u2019s precisely what they wrote.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Here\u2019s the pitch: \u201cWe are a collective of Ryan\u2019s close friends, reeling from a brutal loss. We are asking for your help on behalf of his partner in easing the burden and stress of this horrifying situation so that we can have space and time to grieve, and remember Ryan. Immediate needs are to offset the costs of working class people taking time off of work to properly mourn.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">They want to take a vacation. They need to crowdfund some bereavement leave, even though they\u2019re not even related to the guy. Forget the family, forget the funeral, just pay them to sit around and \u201cmourn.\u201d Their friend died and the very first thing they thought to do was raise funds for themselves. But Ryan\u2019s comrades didn\u2019t stop there. For good measure, they also told media outlets that, if he were alive, Ryan would feel bad for his killer. As The Daily Mail <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-12593959\/Brooklyn-activist-Ryan-Thoresen-Carson-feel-SORRY-violent-teenager-stabbed-death-think-victim-broken-say-friends.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">reported<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, \u201cBrooklyn activist Ryan Thoresen Carson would feel SORRY for the violent teenager who stabbed him to death and think of him as a victim of a broken system, say friends.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If we\u2019re being completely honest, his friends are probably right. On social media before his death, Carson <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MrAndyNgo\/status\/1710025059874545928?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">celebrated<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> violence directed at police officers. He called the torching of a Minneapolis police station, \u201creally good.\u201d He cheered when Rush Limbaugh died, saying \u201chell yeah.\u201d He also threatened an elected official, saying he wanted to \u201cshove this little f-ing nerd in the locker where he belongs.\u201d At the same time, Carson pretended to be a compassionate person when he was talking about violent thugs and drug addicts, who he wanted to have constant, state-funded access to narcotics. So the criminals who terrorize entire cities are the good guys, according to Ryan Carson. The talk radio hosts and politicians who disagree with him, on the other hand, deserve to die.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As depraved an ideology as that is, it\u2019s what resonates on the Left now. Carson\u2019s friends value that ideology more than the memory of their dead friend. They want to promote the very same policies \u2014 defunding the police, legalizing injection sites, putting the mentally ill homeless on the streets \u2014 that got Carson killed. That\u2019s because they don\u2019t care about him. They care about the revolution.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You might have heard claims on social media that Carson\u2019s girlfriend, Claudia, wasn\u2019t cooperative with police in the hours after her boyfriend\u2019s death. We can\u2019t confirm that. Certainly, if it\u2019s true, it\u2019d be in keeping with Claudia\u2019s social media posts, where she says that all cops are \u201cbastards.\u201d But here\u2019s what we do know. According to the New York Daily News, Claudia somehow <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nydailynews.com\/2023\/10\/05\/teen-suspect-arrested-for-unprovoked-brooklyn-stabbing-death-of-social-justice-advocate-ryan-carson\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cmis-picked\u201d <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0her boyfriend\u2019s killer in a lineup. She\u2019s the only eyewitness to the crime. She saw it happen in front of her, from just a few feet away. But she misidentified the person who did it. Now, without seeing all the people in the lineup, it\u2019s hard to make anything out of this. Eye witnesses are also notoriously unreliable. But this is another interesting detail to note, all the same.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Politicians in New York don\u2019t appear to be interested in getting to the bottom of any of this, though. Like Carson\u2019s friends, they\u2019re motivated solely by ideology. Take a look at so-called <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DanFriedman81\/status\/1709595053809688822\/photo\/2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201ctributes\u201d<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> to Ryan Carson from New York state Senator Julia Salazar, or public advocate Jumaane Williams, or council member Sandy Nurse, or state senator Jabari Brisport, or state Representative Emily Gallagher. None of them talk about how exactly Carson died. Instead, they all mindlessly tell people to continue practicing his brand of Left-wing activism. Salazar, for example, eulogized Carson by talking about the importance of \u201chumane drug policy.\u201d Williams went on about the need for \u201cenvironmental justice.\u201d They\u2019re skipping over any form of self-reflection about why Ryan Carson is dead, in favor of repeating their talking points. Callous and craven doesn\u2019t begin to describe this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Of course, wherever there\u2019s callous and craven behavior, there\u2019s corporate media. And they\u2019ve also been working overtime to obscure as many facts as possible about this reported Antifa foot-soldier\u2019s unfortunate demise. In the hours after Carson\u2019s murder, several outlets, including the New York Daily News and the New York Post, refused to provide any kind of description for the suspect. The NY Daily News, for example, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20231003093917\/https:\/\/www.nydailynews.com\/2023\/10\/02\/man-32-stabbed-to-death-near-brooklyn-bus-stop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">called<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> the killer an \u201cunhinged stranger.\u201d The article later describes the murderer as a \u201cbelligerent stranger.\u201d But there\u2019s no mention of any kind of description, even though the article cites police sources who have clearly seen the surveillance footage showing the murder. This is deliberate. Either the police, or the media, or Carson\u2019s girlfriend decided to hide information here, there\u2019s no getting around that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">And as incredible as that is, it gets worse.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Somehow, in a development that\u2019s unprecedented in New York\u2019s storied history of perp walks, this coverup continued even after police arrested Carson\u2019s alleged killer. Yesterday, when police arrested the suspect, CBS News made the \u201ceditorial decision\u201d to blur the alleged killer\u2019s face. They deliberately hid his identity. Watch:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">CBS is now BLURRING OUT the face of the black man who killed Ryan Carson <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/UIVVAoj0MG\">pic.twitter.com\/UIVVAoj0MG<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/EndWokeness\/status\/1709996669121491389?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 5, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To be clear, the suspect that police arrested is an 18-year-old adult by the name of Brian Dowling. There is no conceivable reason to blur his face in this context. The excuse from CBS\u00a0 \u2014 which appears to be, \u201cwell, this adult murder suspect hasn\u2019t been formally charged yet; therefore you don\u2019t get to see his face\u201d \u2014 has never been used by any major media outlet in the history of this country, as far as we can tell. It has never been used by CBS. It certainly didn\u2019t apply to Daniel Penny. Daniel Penny didn\u2019t kill anyone in cold blood. He saved people on a subway car from getting violently attacked. But even before he was charged with any crimes, news outlets had no problem putting his face everywhere. What explains the different treatment?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Of course, Daniel Penny is white and Brian Dowling is black. That shouldn\u2019t matter, but when corporate media makes everything about race, it\u2019s hard not to notice. And more to the point, Daniel Penny was a law-abiding citizen. He served his country in the Marines. And then, he exercised his constitutional right of self-defense. So naturally they want to shame him at every opportunity. Brian Dowling, on the other hand, did exactly what leftists wanted him to do, if what authorities are saying is true. He contributed nothing to society. Instead, he committed a bunch of crimes, behaved like a lunatic, and terrorized everyone around him. In fact, shortly before he murdered the Antifa poet in Brooklyn, Dowling was allegedly terrorizing everyone around him. Watch:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Instead of throwing Brian Dowling in an asylum, where he apparently belonged, leftist policies ensured he wouldn\u2019t spend a day in an institution. The fact he may have killed a leftist is unfortunate in their eyes, but they really don\u2019t care. It\u2019s a little bit of friendly fire, in their view. But shouldn\u2019t distract from the agenda.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We\u2019ve been seeing this a lot lately. The other day I mentioned the brutal murder of a 26-year-old white Left-wing tech CEO in her luxury apartment building in Baltimore. This CEO, named Pava LaPere, was an avowed leftist. She had BLM propaganda all over her social media feeds. She seemed to really harbor an irrational hatred towards white men. How did she die? She let a black guy she didn\u2019t know into her apartment building, and then she got into an elevator with him. The surveillance footage proves it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">LaPere\u2019s mangled, dead body was found on the rooftop of the apartment building a few days later.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you were covering this story \u2014 and pretty much every news station in the Baltimore area was \u2014 then you\u2019d think you\u2019d at least want to inform viewers of exactly how LaPere was murdered. But that\u2019s not what happened. Here\u2019s one example of local news coverage of LaPere\u2019s death. This is from Fox \u2013 St. Louis. Notice what\u2019s *not* mentioned:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A lot of reports are like this. They say she was killed in her apartment building. But they don\u2019t tell you how the killer got inside. And that\u2019s a curious omission, when you think about it. If you really cared about Pava LaPere \u2014 or even if you just cared about accuracy in journalism, frankly \u2014 you\u2019d think that would be one of the first things you mention. Pava LaPere let this alleged killer into her building. She died because she was too welcoming, too trusting, too tolerant, too naive. She died because she DIDN\u2019T make stereotypical assumptions. Why not tell that story to the public?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This omission is particularly notable given recent history. It wasn\u2019t long ago that the media told us that, unless we allow every random black guy into our apartment buildings, then we\u2019re racist and we should lose our jobs. Here\u2019s a story that you almost certainly don\u2019t remember. It\u2019s from the dark ages of 2018. That year, a white woman named Hilary Thornton decided to block a black man from entering her apartment building. Hilary had cracked the door to let her dog out, when an unknown black guy tried to enter the building. Hilary said she wouldn\u2019t allow him inside. What happened next? The entire national news media branded Hilary Thornton as a racist. She was fired from her job. Watch:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hilary Thornton\u2019s life was destroyed because she did the right thing. She did what her condo association told her to do. She did what common sense told her to do. Pava LaPere, on the other hand, did what the Left and corporate media demanded. And now she\u2019s dead because of it. And none of the activists who gave her that horrible advice \u2014 none of the media outlets that relentlessly attacked Hilary Thornton \u2014 are acknowledging that. Like Ryan Carson\u2019s friends, they don\u2019t care. They\u2019re worried instead about the revolution. They don\u2019t care about the innocent people who die as a result.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You might have noticed that there have been several other prominent examples of leftist activists dying horrible deaths because of Left-wing policies in recent days. This is becoming more and more common. And with every new tragic example, the response from the Left is always the same. It\u2019s detached, it\u2019s self-absorbed, and it\u2019s completely focused on politics. All of them \u2014 corporate media, politicians, the foot-soldiers in Brooklyn \u2014 they all want their ideology to win. That\u2019s all they care about. People do not matter to them. Human life does not matter to them. The higher the body count, the more forcefully they\u2019ll clamor for \u201csocial justice.\u201d Every fatality is more evidence that they\u2019re right, somehow. What they\u2019ll never admit is that Ryan Carson and Pava LaPere, and many more victims like them, have already experienced the inevitable consequences of their ideology. And precisely for that reason, no one will ever hear from them again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The other day I talked briefly about the murder of Ryan Carson.
