How do you know?

Edit: stop being Reddit, Lemmy! You don't down vote someone for wanting to know more information lmao. Asking a legitimate question, wtf.

The entire political landscape has been radicalized by the right.

The far right hears what they say and agree.
The far left hears what they say and are threatened.
The moderates (left and right) hear what they say and are desensitized.
The centrists hear what they say and become apathetic.

The Dems/left are trying to convince people to give a shit, but not so much that they get violent.

"Their memes"? The only thing from the bullet casings that links to groypers is maybe Bella ciao. This doesn't read like it was written by someone who knows what they are talking about.

A direct quote from that source:

While there is no clear evidence yet that Tyler Robinson was a formal member of Fuentes’ community, a Facebook photo suggests he engaged with Groyper memes.

I wouldn't say that is conclusive he was a groyper. Seems we still don't have enough evidence to figure out what his leanings where

I like how the headline of that article already has him convicted before they have any evidence, or an actual conviction. But in the first paragraph they say he's a suspect. Gotta get them clicks amirite.

I'm not right-wing, but I do believe in justice, and I know what that looks like. I haven't seen it yet in this case.

Got a better link? That mobile site is 100% convinced I have an ad blocker.

When? The right is saying that was before he had a trans partner in college. Me, I don't know shit.

Nick Fuentes, groyper leader and homophobe, accidentally began streaming gay porn before turning off his live feed. 4chan is famous for both misogyny and transphobia, as well as both cis and trans pornography.

Having a trans partner doesn't mean you're not a nazi, and considering how easily the feds got his chat logs, I don't think his 'partner' was all that into him. John Hinckley Jr didn't kill to further Jodie Foster's agenda. Do you think Tyler Robinson engraved groyper memes onto bullets before being 'brainwashed by the left,' and then decided to used them in the shooting anyway?
