          Over the past decade, I’ve spent a lot of time writing about Europe’s far right: Marine Le Pen’s ascent in France, the Brexit vote in Britain and the rise of the AfD in Germany. In 2019, I took a road trip across the Continent and was struck by how much these movements differed from country to country. The Italian right was animated by immigration. In France, it was the urban elite’s betrayal of the rural left-behind. Polish nationalists were obsessed with all things L.G.B.T.Q.

          There are these common themes you always hear about at these rallies: Immigration, sovereignty, an encroaching European Union. But the new thing that everyone was talking about was Charlie Kirk. That shouldn’t have been surprising, because lots of these parties have been developing a narrative — or mythology — of persecution for years, sometimes decades. And they took the assassination of Kirk as more evidence of their persecution. As one of the party leaders explained to me, they needed to “use him” for political mobilization. In a way, it would be political malpractice not to.

          to try to sign up people for this thing he had called The Movement. One reason it didn’t work was that Europeans had a sense it was primarily about Bannon. Charlie Kirk had a more organic online connection to many on the right in Europe, especially the young. He was in their phones, in reels translated into their own languages. That someone they sort of knew and watched was killed on camera was powerful. And one leader of a European right-wing party told me that it mattered that this had happened in America, which has in many ways taken the lead in the right-wing echo chamber. So they were more than willing to accept Kirk as a martyr of their own.

          It shows that the right-wing ecosystem has already become more aligned. And that’s a result of social media and the immediacy of X and Instagram and YouTube. But it also reflects something more purposeful: a strategy of these parties to draw closer together. They make a point of speaking at each other’s rallies. They share the same issues, and the same politically useful mythology of victimization. So those factors make something as enormous in the United States as Charlie Kirk’s assassination reverberate in Europe and beyond.
