Wait, how does being a private citizen mean his message will live on?
Sorry about wording, him being assassinated, instead of dying shamefully will make his followers treat him like a martyr and others will continue his message of hate.

First I ever heard of a gyroper, I hate 2025
Me too actually. Even though I was aware of these people (4chan, pepe memes, incels etc) for a long time, I’d never heard the term groyper.
