This doesn't matter at all. Release the Epstein files

[–] MrsVeggies@lemmy.blahaj.zone 18 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

They finally released what the casings said, some homophobic shit, but no "transgender ideology".

One was the lyrics to an Italian WW2 song

One just said "Hey fascist, catch!"

and the last one said "If you read this, you are gay."

Literally nothing related to Transpeople or "Anti-Fascist Ideology"

bella ciao is THE antifascist song. 🤨

NBC is reporting a casing reading "notices, bulges, OWO, what's this?", which I'm guessing is what's being spun as a trans thing (lol, lmao even). The "hey fascist, catch" and Bella Ciao ones are pretty clearly antifascist.

[–] QueenHawlSera@sh.itjust.works 2 points 43 minutes ago (1 children)

I interpreted antifascist as being linked to the group "Antifa" specifically, which..... just calling someone a fascist (even if they are one) by itself wouldn't count as

[–] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 1 points 39 minutes ago

Yeah, it's hard to tell which way the media is spinning anything related to being antifascist, haha

[–] ravelin@lemmy.ml 7 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

It's amazing to me how easy it is to tell what's bullshit, and yet It'S sO hArD tO tElL wHaT's ReAl ThEsE dAyS

[–] Hawk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Turns out the bullets were indeed engraved

[–] Stamau123@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

... With manufacturing marks

One said

"O Bella ciao, Bella ciao, Bella ciao, Ciao, ciao!

One said

"Hey Fascist, CATCH!"

One said

"If you read this you are gay LMAO"

So, no ideology of any kind antifascist nor transgender, in fact it was even a little homophobic

[–] Busyvar@jlai.lu 3 points 51 minutes ago

Bella ciao is an antifascist song.

[–] Cyberflunk@lemmy.world 20 points 9 hours ago

Take this fucking lie down

[–] QueenHawlSera@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 hour ago

Clowns all of them.

Apparently the bullets did have some engravings, but they said benign shit like "Here fascist, catch!" and "If you read this, you are gay LMAO", but nothing antifa or trans related

[–] QueenHawlSera@sh.itjust.works 15 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

What's the Source: ?

I wanna share it with others who still believe it's true

[–] Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.works 46 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

On September 11, 2025, The Wall Street Journal issued a caution regarding its earlier report on an internal law-enforcement bulletin concerning the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk. The bulletin had mentioned ammunition found near the scene with “transgender and anti-fascist ideology” engravings, but the Justice Department indicated the report might not accurately reflect the messages on the ammunition as the probe was in its early stages.

This is statement from the WSJ

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 10 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

They're walking back a claim that was so stupid that it could only be made up by a conspiracy theory idiot.

Yet they made it. Too notch US journalism here people

Now they're somewhat walking it back but that doesn't matter, that walking back part will be ignored, the damage has been done

[–] Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 hours ago

Yup, it was said, now it is truth to a lot of people

[–] QueenHawlSera@sh.itjust.works 22 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

So they walked back their own claim, good good good.

[–] Garbagio@lemmy.zip 22 points 8 hours ago

Make it, rile up the right, then admit later (quietly) that they were wrong. Corporate media standard.

[–] AgentOrangesicle@lemmy.world 4 points 10 hours ago

Probably the person making the more believable claim.

[–] spaghettiwestern@sh.itjust.works 54 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

The backpedaling on the WSJ's lie has begun:

On September 11, 2025, The Wall Street Journal issued a caution regarding its earlier report on an internal law-enforcement bulletin concerning the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk. The bulletin had mentioned ammunition found near the scene with "transgender and anti-fascist ideology" engravings, but the Justice Department indicated the report might not accurately reflect the messages on the ammunition as the probe was in its early stages.

[–] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 23 points 8 hours ago

might not accurately reflect

I love newspeak

[–] potato_wallrus@lemmy.world 38 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Homie wrote an entire manifesto on a 30-06 shell

[–] Squiddork@lemmy.world 24 points 14 hours ago

It's actually the epstein files, that's why they didn't publish what the casings said

[–] Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 27 points 15 hours ago (3 children)

Lol first thing someone does when they go to assassinate someone is to engrave the rifle they hope no one ever finds...

[–] beejboytyson@lemmy.world 4 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

No, he wlleft the rifle on purpose. Easier to just throw away especially if the killer unknown to police. Back in the day mobsters would just leave the gun after a hit.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 5 points 6 hours ago

They always took the fucking cannoli though.

I would love to hear what they mean by “transgender ideology” lmfao

[–] Hawk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 5 hours ago

I'm not kidding, apparently one of the bullets read "if you can read this, you are gay lmfao"

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 18 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

that usually means acknowledging that trans people exist and are the gender they say they are

scary stuff /s

[–] happyfullfridge@lemmy.ml 3 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

that's some impressive engraving skills

[–] some_kind_of_guy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

What is this? A manifesto for ants?

[–] Bwaz@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Really. One slip of the engraving tool or chisel and .. bang.
