Senate Democrats did not vote unanimously for the Republican's Charlie Kirk Day stunt

They just didn't object to the call for unanimous consent because if they did it would have forced a roll call vote and it would have passed because Republicans are in the majority.

It was a Republican stunt that is non-binding and means nothing.

The Senate Democrats simply ignored the Republican stunt.

It's only as important as we want to make it. Some leap at the opportunity to use it as a cudgel against Democrats. Put. The. Weapon. Down.
