Multiple outlets report that Hasan Piker led a Golden Gate Theatre crowd in San Francisco on August 21, 2026, in a mocking singalong of 'We Are Charlie Kirk' and that the audience roared, laughed, and applauded.
What was said
… I had wonderful conversations with people over the weekend at the Grand Prix race, who I had the wonderful opportunity to meet and hang with for a few hours, and I believe we are the reaction to the action of evil. We are the reaction to the action of evil. If people go to see a Hassan Piker rally and they cheer the assassination of Charlie Kirk, you are on the wrong side of evil. Karma is going to bite you in the ass. If you are down with the nonsense of transgenderizing children, karma is going to bite you in the rear end, and you're going to pay for what you have done. …
The Rob Carson Show · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Supports. Turley's report describes Piker leading a crowd in the 'We Are Charlie Kirk' song at a 'Fear& LIVE' tour stop in San Francisco on August 21, with the crowd and co-hosts seeming to laugh with joy, under the headline 'Assassination Sing-a-Long... to Cheering Crowd.'[1]
Supports. Legal Insurrection reports that the audience 'roared with laughter and applause' as Piker sang a derisive rendition of the song at the San Francisco show, and that the crowd 'roars with delight' during the performance.[2]
Supports. TNND reports Piker mocked the late Kirk on a live tour, singing the song in front of a crowd while co-hosts laughed, drawing conservative backlash; Herald Extra's McCarthy column likewise says the crowd howled along while Piker mocked Kirk's assassination.[3][4]
Context. Turning Point's Andrew Kolvet called the performance 'pure, unadulterated evil,' and coverage notes Piker's audience reaction, but no source reports the crowd chanting in favor of the killing itself; the 'cheering' is reported as reaction to the mocking song.[5][6]
Context. The sources are mostly opinion or partisan outlets (credibility 0.40) with no independent fact-check of this specific event, so the characterization of the crowd's reaction rests on a limited set of accounts.[1][2][7]
