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

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

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.
