Tony Zirkle, candidate for the Republican nomination for Congress in the 2nd District of Indiana) gave a speech last week at an event that commemorated the birthday of a former leader of a European country.

Here’s a picture of the event:¹

Zirkle, when asked about the event stated:

“I’ll speak before any group that invites me,” Zirkle said Monday. “I’ve spoken on an African-American radio station in Atlanta.”

Well, sure. That explains it: African-American radio stations, neo-Nazis–no big dif.

Zirkle went on to explain:

He said he did not know much about the neo-Nazi group and that his intention was to talk on his concern about “the targeting of young white women and for pornography and prostitution.”

Of course! It is rather difficult to figure out the meaning of a Hitler portrait, swastika-laden flags/arm-bands and the “Happy Birthday” Hitler banner. I mean, really, who could figure out such subtle signals?

If one goes to his web site, one finds that he is rather concerned with the “great porn dragon” as it “inspires Jews into pornography and prostitution and then, like the snake he is, turns the public against the Jews.” Well. Who knew?

He manages to connect immigration to porn as well (although, I must confess, I can only half-translate the following gibberish):

3. Immigration – The porn capitalists are doing their all to prove the case of the ante-bellum racists and the Jim Crow bigots by making the case that whites and blacks can not control themselves in each other’s company. If it is possible for noires to obtain 400 criminal years of familial revenge in just 40, the porn capitalists are giving it the new college try. Accordingly, as the above two groups sexually self-genocide themselves, the currently more meek Latinos are inheriting the land – and they should under current conditions.

I can say this from reading the above: for this guy to claim that he doesn’t know much about neo-Nazi thought is for him to be thoroughly lying, as he is clearly delineating race-based politics of the most onerous type.

This guy is porn-obsessed, including linking the “great porn dragon” to Iraq. I shan’t go into the details for fear that my brain will melt.

He also is quite concerned with what he calls “divorce aids” (i.e., sex toys)–although why they should lead to divorce in ZirkleWorld is beyond me.

This would appear to be Zirkle’s second run at the nomination, having won just shy of 30% of the vote in 2024. One can only hope that his vote share would be far, far lower this time around.

As a side note, how anyone can read his rants and then hire him as an attorney is beyond me.

Some examples from scanning the front page of his site:

• “What goes around, sometimes comes around, and sometimes a Zulu massacre comes right back in a dot com a few generations later to taunt a people in a new, more efficient destroying form of the same song, different dance hate speech. If addiction prone blanches can’t get their act together, then all of us who have a shred of justice in our spine may one day have to debate the idea of giving them what their ancestors gave to the natives, the author or whom is still honored with placement on the $20 bill, and consider for a second, before being publicly scorn-burned to a 33rd degree crisp, the merits of exiling them to a 44 state reservation and consider slavery reparations where the 12%, 6 state FL, GA, SC, MS, AL, & LA South shall rise again under the transformed Bible-to-Gospel belt.”
• “The GPD (Great Porn-Dragon) is seeking so set up this country as a Broke-Barack mountain of gay pride Obama-Nation where a nation that was conceived in liberty now conceives in illigitimacy at 40% in Indiana, where a nation that grew as a Christian lamb is now phoenix-izing itself to speak as a porn dragon. ”
• “If history can not produce one mono-syllabic tax cut king to stick his fluking harpoon between the porn Tiamat’s oeilles, then perhaps history will one day send a homeless vet to attempt a confoundation of those incognoscenti who think they’re wise. ”

1. It is always painful to see the Nazi flag and the American flag together in pictures like this. Indeed, pictures like this are painful in general, as it is tragic that anyone is drawn to these groups. [↩]
