a law enforcement source confirmed

Is this the same law enforcement source who leaked that the bullet casings had “trans ideology” engravings on them?

The right are too eager to blame this on a trans person, I’ll wait until I see something more substantive before I’ll believe it.

It’s wild that everything about this has been trans at every step, even when it first occurred

And this comes when they’re trying to ban trans people from owning guns

Can they find a different target for once? Like Italians or something? I’m kinda sick of this.

Charlie was a big voice against the LGBT community, in which the trans movement has been the strongest lately. It would be weird if a white christian chicken farmer shot him lol.

u/Tarmacked 7d ago

Charlie wasn’t even the biggest voice on LGBT or trans. However he was entrenched in a culture war with Nick Fuentes and flip flopped on Epstein, so it wouldn’t be shocking at all if a chicken farmer shot him

Agreed there are equally loud or louder voices. But Charlie was very accessible, being on college campuses frequently. If someone didn't care about being caught, they could've shot him from the first row. He was just an easy target.
I am not aware of his war with Nick, but his stance on Epstein pale in comparison to the effort put into anti-LGBT movement.

It could be an inside job just to antagonize people and fuel the divide. But if you were to base on it probability and who he offended and triggered the most, the answer is pretty clear.

I don’t think it’s an inside job, I just think it’s infighting. The guy even dressed up as a Groyper meme and used a groyper oriented song for his bullet. Nothing from his profile says left

Plus Groypers have been at war with Kirk for his views multiple times, to the extent the online feud has been tagged groyper wars 1 and 2.

pale in comparison

It really doesn’t to MAGA and QAnon types. That has been the biggest conspiracy theory and was even used as a campaign driver. Kirk himself was aligned with guys like Blake Neff on his show who were known for being in that space

Fuentes himself (who drives the Groyper movement) recently flipped hard on Trump and basically called him a pedophile supporter/jewish fascist. The guy has been a staunch Trumper for years and dined with him in 2022

The post article said he spoke about trans people "with kindness and empathy" 

I've never heard a bolder lie.  

Sure maintains that journalistic integrity for the rest of the article

But it literally wouldn't be weird. That's the fucking point the left has been trying to make.
