    Couldn’t have happened to a bigger piece of shit.

    Now we just gotta keep the ball rolling and erase the lifetime achievements of everyone else on the Far Right.

    Very inspirational tweet. Thanks for the pick-me-up, OP.

      I mean his death couldn’t have been more memable. He literally got shot at a school by a white kid. While talking about school shootings, trying to shift the focus onto black gangs, standing under a prove me wrong tent.

          Ah, the land of the free. Where you might get shot by a racist for not being racist OR shot by a super-racist for only being normal racist.

            I mean, I’m not going to pretend to know everything, obviously a lot of it is media coverage etc… not enough is known, and hell there’s the weird oddities that make me question the entire robinson narrative. (IE the assemble/dissassemble the rifle multiple times that don’t make sense, the fact that the supposed exit wound looks more like an entry wound etc…), But assuming robinson is the shooter, with what we can see, it seems more likely he was against kirks hatred rather than feeling it didn’t go far enough.

            I will admit there’s not enough to go on to get a picture, but with everything that is there, I don’t really see anything there that points to robinson being a bigot.

          We don’t really know how he leaned. The left was told he was a gopher while the right was told he was a leftist.

          I think the whole gopher (edit: groyper) thing was the CIA doing damage control to avoid an other Luigi situation.

            the CIA doing damage control to avoid an other Luigi situation.

            I’m just going to sit and look at this for a while, then shake my head and walk away.

            Umm… you think the CIA planted evidence to paint him as a right-winger, to avoid blaming it on the left…?

            Are you being sarcastic? What world do you live in?

              What evidence though? All they did was tell the media which way to spin it. I don’t know of anything that actually points to him being a groyper. His family said he was tired of Kirk spreading hate (his words) and he had a trans girlfriend. That doesn’t scream groyper to me.

              He was painted as the enemy to both sides btw, as a right-winger to us and as a lefty to conservatives.

              I think it’s to avoid copy cats maybe but also, I’m not entirely certain he did it. And if he didn’t do it, then it’s convenient to have him the villain so nobody looks too hard or pays much attention to the trial, compared to Luigi’s trial for instance.

              Basically, he is now part of the out group for everyone, and anyone bringing up inconsistencies is by extension also part of that out group and can be ignored.

              In any case, I’m just glad he did it lol.

        I need it to be so much more televised. I need him to just stop talking mid-sentence, fall over, and shit himself all on live TV. So far ive only gotten 1/3 of that.

    Wait why is it sinister and demoralizing? I find it a laugh. Also he’s been fucking canonized by the other side so cry me a damn river.

    Basically, everything he ever did in life has been rendered useless

    I wish that was true. Fucker’s ideology is still alive and kicking (vulnerable people in the teeth). We need to make it unacceptable and punish those who cause harm onto others.

    Oh, please. That asshole got exactly what he asked for. And after he was gone, his wife showed exactly what she is: a spineless, petty, money-grubbing whore.

      He said, to paraphrase because i don’t remember exactly what he said, that a few gun deaths is fine as long as they keep their 2A rights. Serves him right. ironic as fuck.

    Demoralizing? Knowing that absolute shit people will always be remembered as absolute shit people is heartening.

    There’s something incredibly satisfying and encouraging about this, like watching a viper’s leaden soul being weighed by Anubis and devoured by Ammit in real time.
