People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
We need an archive link to this from this guy OR someone else verifying that this is true. I tried to find it, but couldn't. I'll give everyone a half an hour.
Edit: Thanks for everyone doing so much research. The crazy thing is, when you go to @DavidShuster, the comment doesn't show up at all and it looks the account hasn't been active for a year or so. But then RedJard linked and archived the original. LillyPip confirmed that it is his account.
I now spent close to an hour trying to figure out Robinson's political leanings, and as of right now the internet simply does not know.
This is the closest:
A public records database shows Robinson’s family resides in Washington, Utah, where Trump garnered support from 75% of voters in the 2024 presidential election. Robinson’s parents have Republican listed as their party affiliation, said public voter registration information, and they are considered active voters (each cast ballots in the 2024 election that gave Trump a second presidency).
Public records also indicated Robinson registered as a voter in Utah in July 2021 but was considered inactive and did not declare an affiliation to any party when he registered.
And then there's a lot of talk about bullet engravings which leave me very confused. How can you engrave "If you're reading this you're gay" - 26 characters onto a single bullet? Even so, the messaging is open to interpretation. We simply do not know yet, and we might never know 100%! He's conflicted, that much seems clear.
IMHO most timely and objective article as of right now: LA Times
edit: I wrote this 24h ago. Surely the situation has changed by now. See you in a more timely thread!
30.06 is a large bullet and the words were allegedly written on the cases of the bullets, not the rounds themselves. Good to be skeptical but a fine point Sharpie could get 26 characters on there if you had small handwriting or did multiple lines or whatever.
I assume you mean proof as to the claims.
But just in case if you mean the tweet being made and made by that account, it is still up and I made an archived version of it.
The account claims to be
journalist [...] TYT.com Rebel HQ. Previously anchored for MSNBC + AJAM
I'm going to leave this up and let you all decide if this is true or not. He hasn't been confirmed as this journalist, but x is a POS organization, so everyone gets to decide for themselves.
Didn't Spencer Cox even say that he is shattered that the shooter was "one of us" (read: white male) and not an immigrant? Like on TV, not in a cocaine-fueled xitter rant post.
Edit: Found it
What a pathetic excuse for an elected leader. Almost crying because the shooter was "one of them" and not their fake "enemy".
The investigation is ongoing, but I want to make it crystal clear right now to whoever did this. We will find you. We will try you and we will hold you accountable to the furthest extent of the law. And I just want to remind people that we still have the death penalty here in the state of Utah.
We can return violence with violence, we can return hate with hate. And that's the problem with political violence, is it metastasizes. Because we can always point the finger at the other side. And at some point, we have to find an off ramp, or it's going to get much much worse.
Incredible the difference a day can make.
Not cancelled, delayed. The screeches about this being a left wing plot going back decades haven't gotten rolling yet. The far right's civil war will be back on by suppertime.
Besides some rumors and claims that he police officers would already have confirmed themselves by now, there is nothing to suggest he is. The closest I've seen are the claims that he was "deep Groyper signalling" with the bullet case inscriptions, but that's just grasping at straws.
I suspect his Discord gamer group may have been more involved in shaping his ideology, specially if he was giving details on how he towel wrapped his rifle there. Unfortunately, Discord nuked it and now we have to rely on the (in)competence of the Trump appointed authorities and their heavy political baggage.
The fact is that is you have a group that fetishizes guns and fetishizes using them and the tactical encounters with them using a "second amendment" "it's there to act against the oppressor" ideology, you are going to get shooters. Why obsess about what the spark or the trigger was? The Groypers are basically The Army of the 12 Monkeys in this scenario.
Where are the actual sources of this information? Are there police interview transcripts available somewhere? Are there reports about a transcript from reputable sources? So far all I've seen is wild speculation by untrusted sources.
As of now, all I actually know about this guy is that he shot charlie kirk.
Call me cynical, but I'm convinced that the MAGA mouthpieces all knew full well from the start that the balance of probability was that it would be one of their own.
They knew they'd have maybe 48 hours max to flood all outlets and social media with stories of it being a suspected trans activist, so that by the time the truth came out the story would already be old news and people would be fatigued and just remember that there was some uncertainty over his motives.
is there a real source for this or just some twitter guy?
Some Twitter guy has multiple awards for journalism, I'm inclined to give him some benefit. But I would like someone to provide an official statement.
Citations or GTFO because we should always check for sources especially in this day and age, awards or not.
Wtf is a groyper? Stop making up words. I can't keep up with this shit.
They are a neonazi christian nationalist group led by Nick Fuentes, who was known to have a long-standing feud with Charlie Kirk. To give it more context, these people are so far right that they view Charlie Kirk as liberal.
A very deep sigh of relief was uttered by me, but then turned into a groan of frustration, because all those right wing nutcases who were calling for the heads of all leftists are now again demanding sympathy. Fuck them.
remember, Charlie Kirk did not believe in empathy, so fulfill his wishes and do not have any for him
No matter how holy you are there is always someone holier than thou. They should implicate Laura Loomer for encouraging this assassination since she was one of the people who said Charlie wasn't republican enough lol.
Not conservative enough? Jesus Christ, who does he want? Satan himself?
No, Nick Fuentes. Satan is way less far right
Nazism.
They want a return to Nazism.
Nick Fuentes is where the path Charlie Kirk paved leads.
r/conservative is really trying to paint him as a transperson associate.
Funny how the two main shots at fascists were done by fascists. Yes, we're obviously the dangerous party here🤡
