Analogous to Charlie Kirk?

Horst Ludwig Georg Erich Wessel (1907-1930), a young brownshirt in the early Nazi movement, was shot by Communist opponents during a dispute and later died from his injuries. Joseph Goebbels and the Nazi propaganda machine mythologized his life and death, elevating him into a martyr for their cause.

A poem he wrote became the “Horst-Wessel Song,” the anthem of the Nazi Party and later part of the national identity under Nazi rule. Through public ceremonies, renamed streets, and ritual remembrance, Wessel’s story became a blueprint for turning death into myth and myth into political power.
