Some of us have been saying this is where we're headed for a long time now.

The far left has lost all sense of societal boundaries, where killing Kirk is seen as acceptable.

Podcast host Joe Rogan warned on Tuesday that not just the death of TPUSA co-founder Charlie Kirk, but the celebration of it indicates the country is inching closer to a civil war.

Rogan spoke with his guest, Brian Redban, about how there has been a chaotic back-and forth tit-for-tat between America’s political left and right in recent years. He argued the stark division within the country was expressed by the murder of Kirk during a campus event this past September.

"Charlie Kirk gets shot and people are celebrating like, ‘whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. You want people to die that you disagree with?’ Like, where are we right now on the scale of one-to-civil war? Where are we? Are we at seven? Because I thought we were at a five. I thought we were like four. Four or five," he said on the Tuesday's episode of the "Joe Rogan Experience" podcast. "But after the Charlie Kirk thing, I'm like, ‘Oh, we might be like seven.’ This might be like step seven on the way to a bonafide civil war."

Joe Rogan cautioned that when people start rejoicing over someone’s death—especially a public killing witnessed by the world and their family—it reflects a disturbing moral decline. He emphasized that if the person’s biggest offense was merely saying things others disagreed with, then celebrating their violent death is deeply troubling.

Rogan highlighted how it's not just people on the margins, but people in respected fields posting their joy about an assassination on their public social media profiles.

"This is nuts," he said. "Like what are you guys on? What’s happening here?"

Months after Kirk's death, TPUSA events continue to experience protests and threats of violence.

During a Monday TPUSA event at the University of California, Berkeley, a man was seen beating a TPUSA supporter outside the event. The individual was arrested and charged with violent crimes, according to local police. Several others were arrested related to the campus event, including four women arrested for felony vandalism.

"Right now at our Turning Point USA campus tour stop at UC Berkeley… Antifa is breaking through police barricades and threatening our event attendees," TPUSA chief of staff Mikey McCoy said on X.

Rogan has previously warned against the rising acceptance of political violence.

Days after Kirk's assassination, Rogan said his murder "opened up" his eyes and never would have thought so many people would celebrate a man's murder.

"It’s just bizarre, like, normal people that, I think, think they're good people, and they think, they genuinely think, that guy was a bad guy," Rogan said. "And I don't think they're right. And I think they were indoctrinated. And I don't agree with everything that Charlie Kirk said or did."

I never really followed or paid attention to CK, but seeing so many people in my personal life celebrate his death and take what he said out of context on purpose has forced me to distance myself from them.

A wise move. Those types are toxic and drag everything and everyone around them down when they finally do crash. And they always do.

I've always been closer to my family, and now my wife's family anyway. I don't trust alot of my coworkers as far as I can throw them.

Yes, there is soon to be a Civil War, but it won't involve the Right. It will/is on the Left. Shots have been fired.....verbally.

Only one wide will fight.

The other side will publish scathing Op Eds.

One of the first things I learned when I went to work for Ma Bell was that NO ONE there was trustworthy. The only thing I've learned about trusting others is that you can only do that when their aims and goals align with yours. Once their goals diverge, it's a case of each person pursuing their own interests. And I really don't have an issue with that aspect, as it's human nature. I have more problems with those who can't see that aspect of a professional relationship. So many naive fools, so little time to take advantage of them....

The "melting pot" just isn't a very good idea in general. You have too many people that believe in too many different things so everyone's upset. A civil war over it seems silly, but you can split peacefully

Alot of these third world countries still live in medieval times. They're also.hermit kingdoms. No one from the first world who has gone there has come back alive.

unrealistic when blue depends on $$$ to survive w/o fundamental support ... that's the conundrum in a capitalistic societal framework ... it's the same reason the first one happened...

the supposed melting pot is valid ... it's those that cling to their bs cultural values vs. our way of existence that's the fk'n g'dammed problem ... and those with biggest pockets, now, fully understand how to manipulate...

it's so sad how too few understand the ginning o' game....

Maybe it’s just me but personally I’m making a list.

I dont think a civil war is coming. I do think a more politically violent period of our history similar to the late 1960's and early 1970's is on the horizon. When you have a third of democrats believing political violence is ok---your bound to have enough crazies in that third of democrats who actually follow through on those beliefs.

AC, the issue will come if and when the Dems get back in power with the lunatic Socialists in charge.

Well, I didn't mean the day of, lol. I meant that is when the process will start that will eventually cause the civil war.

trips, you know how I am ... never take it personally ... I simply toss out what I see as hypotheticals in the 'if' ... the if/then is a curse that I would wish upon my worst enemy ... however, it's critical to drive to 1 or 0...

Those who believe you can peacefully split with a socialist/communist half are ignorant of history. You will fight them. The question is now or later.
