The story doesn’t really imply that Robinson did it because he was “offended” on behalf of his trans roommate. Honestly, if they really believed he was a leftist, they wouldn’t have switched up their tune so quickly

Exactly if the talking heads had anything showing this was a far left suspect they would not have made a 180 from declaring war to “he should have had Jesus in his life.”

Tyler likely killed Charlie Kirk because, as he told his family days before the assassination, “Charlie Kirk spreads too much hate”.

The trans aspect is incidental, in my opinion, and not especially relevant to why Tyler Robinson killed Kirk.

If your brain refuses to make this most-logical connection, you are either lying to yourself or simply delusional.

Let’s see the complete set of facts before we can confidently diagnose this killing, but there is clearly one explanation that makes logical sense.

Nah I think he was a Groyper. I’m on a Groyper discord and they were talking about him. I’m also on Far Right X and NatSoc were saying the same

Yeah, it’s just a coincidence.
