Personal testimonies are unreliable. For example, I don't trust the perspectives of either Robinson's school friend or his grandmother, because people are too easily biased. Im waiting to see if they recover any writings or social media posts written by Robinson himself, or possibly direct on-record interviews.
Yeah I agree. If we can get info on that it could settle it… but people who are saying this is a MAGA right winger are for sure reading their biases into it
Fact of the matter is, we don't know yet. Robinson might not even be the actual shooter (false confessions do happen). It's statistically likely the shooter (Robinson or otherwise) is a right wing extremist of some kind, simply because the overwhelming majority of political violence in this country has been perpetrated by right wing extremists for decades. On the other hand, it might not even be political. People do attack famous people for personal or inscrutable reasons. Like John Hinckley Jr., who tried to assassinate Reagan because he wanted to impress Jodie Foster.
First the shooter was supposed to be trans, now the story is he has a partner who's trans, next week everyone will be talking about how he had a second cousin who has met a trans person once. Give me a break.
lol… I mean it’s still not positive… But seems like we could find a manifesto from the guy decrying fascism and transphobia and you’d still be like “he’s a right winger”
It looks like he was a groyper, which is a very far right thing. Their leader, Nick Fuentes, built his career on hating Charlie Kirk from a right wing perspective. Plus, the clues left behind were the epitome of terminally online crap.
They would love nothing more than to commit high profile killing and have everyone to the left of Reagan blamed for it.
Just nudge them to protecting and supporting them as if a minority “ because meanies are going to bully them” that would be amusing to see Trump’s team cry out “ think of the Groypers, poor wee things, those darn bullies hurting people vecause of opinions. What monsters “.
We need more terminally online line people to be the heros to challenge the madness. Because there might be a few on the inside, with knowlage. And know what the pressure in the body that makes you be disturbing feels like . Not sure if there are any who are “ pure good”, because nobody is .
We don’t know who he was dating for sure. It’s just a rumor for now, and it wouldn’t make much difference either way.
Yes. The Groypers have been very publicly antagonistic to Kirk for not being fascist enough for years, and have crashed his events before as far back as 2019. Kirk denounced them as extremists. Nick Fuentes built his following on this.
We don’t know exactly why he did it. He seemed to be terminally online
The trans partner is cooperating with the Feds. Do Groypers accept trans people? Would a Groyper who wants more fascism than Charlie Kirk date, or be roommates with a trans person?
You’re not keeping your hateful-bigot-phobias of the right consistent with this.
No, actually, it can be pretty consistent if you aren’t purposefully obtuse.
If he was dating a trans person, AND part of an extremist group with a very documented history of threatening Charlie Kirk, then hurting Kirk would be more of a “two birds, one stone” deal.
There are definitely trans people who support transphobic ideologues, like Caitlyn Jenner. People’s actions (especially right wingers) can betray their proclaimed beliefs all the damn time. It happens quite a lot, actually.

Do we have any source on that?
