His greatest accomplishment was getting shot in the neck

ok

Not really, but this seems more like projection to me.

There is only thing I know for sure and it’s that the shooter wasn’t a leftist. There is nothing about him that suggests him being a leftist, and certainly nothing that would suggest he’s been radicalized to the point of a targeted killing by the left. The only thing you have to go on is what the state and federal investigators say they have, which they obtained through a source they didn’t name.

Although I agree that Robinson seems to be politically ambiguous, he most definitely has a right-wing bent. Him being apolitical or even a kind’ve slight leftist doesn’t explain how he became radicalized enough to commit a targeted political killing.

My theory is that he was radicalized as a teenager since we have strong evidence that he spent a lot of time online as a teenager. Given all the factors (white cis male in a MAGA household living in Utah who grew up terminally online and described as a hardcore Gamer), it makes sense to me that he was a Groyper or at least spent a lot of time in Groyper spaces outside of the Discord channel mentioned in this article and that was what radicalized him to hate Charlie Kirk. If the feds are to be believed and he was dating a trans woman, then that would provide the motive for acting on his pre-existing hatred for Charlie, but it wouldn’t explain how he got radicalized enough to act on that hatred in the first place.

As as aside, I strongly disagree with this article that Robinson is bisexual. If he’s a rabid rightoid dating a trans woman, then he would likely consider himself straight and he’s just dating his girlfriend. If he’s a woke leftie dating a trans woman, then he would likely consider himself straight and he’s just dating his girlfriend. In either case, I highly doubt he would consider himself bisexual at all just because he’s dating a woman.

Can you really imagine a far Right killing Kirk would be doing so because they “had enough of his hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out” ?

Yeah I can actually. A young white man radicalized by years of being terminally online in groyper spaces who already hated Charlie Kirk for not being extreme enough, who then started to date a trans woman (if the feds are to be believed on this at all). All the trans romantic partner angle gives is a more clear motive, but doesn’t actually explain his radicalization to the point of a targeted killing. Being a groyper does.

Just because you can’t hear the dog whistle does not mean it doesn’t exist. The thing with Groypers, and many white nationalists over the past decade, is that they’re full of ironic memes, co-opting liberal media, and hidden language as a tactic to confuse people like you into believing they’re not an extremist movement at all

Absolutely not

They tried to have his name scrubbed, that’s why it took months to get the announcement that there’s nothing in it. Presumably, he was so integral to the entire operation that scrubbing any mention of Trump would effectively scrub the entire document—this is the result

TIL apartment buildings are military targets

Can we just rename this instance from politicalmemes to tankierants

actually, fair enough

sea shanties and gregorian chants are the fedoras of music genres

Just trusting them to pay you out of their own pocket?

actually the opposite! everyone here just expects to never see their deposit ever again

Here are some of the real, actual and totally-not-biased questions asked in this survey. There are no alternatives to these questions, these are the only ones asked about particular policy positions:

DJT08 Do you support or oppose each of these policies:

• Deporting immigrants who are here illegally and have committed crimes
• Undertaking a full—scale effort to find and eliminate fraud and waste in government expenditures
• Closing the border with added security and policies that discourage illegal crossings
• Banning men who have undergone operations and hormones to become women from girls sports
• Declaring that there are only two genders male and female in all government forms and programs
• Eliminating all preferences by race in the hiring and awarding of government contracts
• Freezing and re—evaluating all foreign aid expenditures and the department that handled them
• Placing reciprocal tariffs on countries that have tariffs on US goods

This is quite possibly the worst-designed and loaded poll I have ever seen

If they expect to end the war by negotiating with both parties, they kind of need to force them to negotiate

removes biggest negotiating chip immediately

Cool! Do you have any links to those protests?

Really? You remember all those international anti-Obama and anti-Clinton protests on their respective Inaugural Day?

Firstly, no one will want to work in a field for minimum wage either lol

Secondly, they’re not going to replace paid (albeit lowly paid) immigrant workers with highly (relatively-speaking) paid american citizens. They’re going to replace them with unpaid prison slave labor forces
