Students at Georgetown University have provoked anger after posts appeared on the anonymous social platform Fizz, apparently promoting a "Charlie Kirk lookalike contest" to take place on 10 September 2026, the first anniversary of the conservative activist's assassination. The post, which called on people to gather on Copley Lawn and drew more than 2,200 upvotes, has been condemned by the university's Turning Point USA chapter as deliberate mockery of Kirk and his memorial, prompting the group to stage a counter-demonstration with flags and signs on campus.

Further posts obtained by the Daily Mail included an AI-generated image of Kirk captioned "Happy Kirkiversary" and a message appearing to target Heidi Sui, the Georgetown Turning Point USA chapter president, personally. Sui said the posts did not reflect how most Americans feel about Kirk's legacy and warned of a troubling gap between disagreeing with someone's politics and celebrating their death. The Turning Point USA chapter said it does not know who is behind the posts, though Fizz requires a Georgetown email to access, while a university spokesperson said officials were unaware of any student group organising the event, condemned its rhetoric and said the situation was being monitored.
