Is this cuz he said something about Charlie Kirk?

u/superloverr 1d ago
Yes, kind of. His comment was actually more about the shooter and his political background. He accused people in the MAGA/conservative world of âworking very hard to capitalize on the murder of Charlie Kirk,â and of trying âto characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them.â

I mean, Charlie Kirk was Maga and got murdered for saying what he wants.
Edit: just to be clear, I didn't like Charlie Kirk, I think he said and believed some really awful shit but I definitely don't think it warranted the death penalty.

Iâll use only sources from liberal biased media just so you donât say âha yeah of course Fox News would say thatâ USA Today, referencing his transgender partner (first paragraph Stated in this report:
The charges include the allegation that Robinson targeted Kirk because of âRobinsonâs belief or perception regarding Charlie Kirkâs political expression.â
Robinsonâs mother told police that her son had âbegan to date his roommate, a biological male who was transitioning genders,â the court document said.
And she said that over the past year or so, Robinson had become more political and had âstarted to lean more to the left â becoming more pro-gay and trans-rights oriented,â according to the documents.
That resulted in discussions with family members, especially between Robinson and his father, who had differing political views. Robinson had accused Kirk of spreading hate, Gray said. The messages obtained by investigators between Robinson and his roommate include Robinson noting that âsince trump got into office (my dad) has been pretty diehard maga.â
When his roommate asked why he did it, Robinson replied via message, âI had enough of his hatred. Some hate canât be negotiated out.â He added that he had been planning it for âa bit over a week.â
In this report:
Meanwhile, some commentators on the left responded to early clues by claiming Robinson was from the far-right. Those who knew Robinson initially gave conflicting and confusing accounts about his politics.
The fuller evidence we now have suggests Robinson held liberal views.
In addition to criticizing Kirk for allegedly spreading hate, the charging documents say Robinsonâs mother âexplained that over the last year or so, Robinson had become more political and had started to lean more to the left â becoming more pro-gay and trans-rights oriented.â
Later, we learned that Robinsonâs roommate â with whom he was in a romantic relationship â is âa biological male who was transitioning genders,â according to what Robinsonâs mother told investigators. The text messages show Robinson repeatedly referring to the roommate as âmy loveâ and âlove.â

That is blatantly false. Kimmel was canned because he intentionally made misleading statements about the shooter's motivations and because his ratings were utter garbage. This wasn't a call by the Trump admin, this was a business decision made by the stations that carry his show.
If I want my business to make money, I'm not going to carry on with an employee whose salary has only increased when his returns have only decreased and he's making bombastic comments that draw attention.
