    This one didn’t work. I think they need to stage the next one to be sure the shooter appears to be leftist. I predict, next year, during the mid-term campaigns, there will be a staged assassination of a Republican candidate.

    His mother, another MAGA, is a licensed social worker. I feel so sorry for those people. My mother was one at a school for disabled children. Know why she was a good one? Because she is the bloodiest bleeding heart screamingly liberal empathetic person this side of planet earth.

    Another MAGA murder with a spoonful of “he was a leftists” of propaganda they are trying to shove down our throats.

    So an entire family of MAGA PedoCons, and at least one of them gets screwed up enough to start shooting up their own side? That’s beautiful.

    I’ve been saying from the beginning that the thing that will finally save us is MAGA’s virtuosic incompetence. Just give them enough rope, and they’ll hang themselves.

    The problem is the damage they’ll do until that happens.

      The current rumor is that he’s a groyper, AKA “MAGA is too liberal” type of guy. Nick Fuentes follower. But at this point, it’s not 100% certain.

        And we all know that is just the bullshit that the cult of maga is using to distance themselves from this event. The old “see it wasn’t us” mentality to avoid hurting their little snowflake feelings so they can keep on being bigots without remorse.

    I believe he was mormon. They are all far right, “not usually” violent, but far right. Hopefully just an outlier, but they are raised to be suspicious of anyone not mormon. That degree of extremism and paranoia could be problematic.

        My wife was born and raised Mormon. When I first learned he was Mormon I looked at her and said blood atonement. Her whole face changed and she said, “better for one man to die, than a whole nation to perish”.

        So apparently this is a big part of Mormonism and how they rationalized their violent actions back in the day.

    MAGAts awfully quiet all of a sudden.

    Mace went from “democrats must own this” to “Jesus save this lost individual” on cue.

    Evil people, all of them.

    Apparently they are saying that since he was close to a trans person (presumably the roommate who helped authorities identify his Discord messages) that it doesn’t matter. Just look at the conservative sub on reddit, the one moderated by the guy who enjoys running psyops with the most narcissistic psychopaths in Eve Online. I seriously believe idiots are deliberately being led by the most narcissistic psychopaths in the nation, and the reason Eve Online is such a tell is because it attracts them in droves, specially the ones who’ve made their leisure time be about moderating its material and enjoying carrying out psyops against people. It’s what money attracts because in their world view everything is arguable - it’s just a matter of skill, with objective facts being shit to them.

    Don’t worry, reddit has made sure to hide their comment history and the subs they moderate, so hell if you will ever know or be able to verify.

      I briefly got into Eve when the science and exploration path got added, but I bounced off largely due to the player base. Why go out and find rare blueprints just so assholes can use them to grief people. Eventually you realize the only way to win is not to play.

    Just like last time, Fox News will simply drop the issue before their followers hear this, and they’ll forever remember it as “trans ideologist shooter.”

    This has happened every previous time so it’s kind of pointless to be excited about it.

    The last fact published by the media was that Kirk had died.

    Everything since has just been hot garbage peddled by the hot garbage paddlers cabal.

    Urgh. Anything for an advertisement impression.

    So I read the “trans ideology” engraving on the ammo was the manufacturer Turan printing “TRN” on it. And US officials started a rumour based on that. Great officials right there. Good training.

    They should be fired, out of a canon, in to the sun.

      There was an engraving on a shell casing referencing a combo in the video game Helldivers 2. It included a series of arrows indicating the controller movements to trigger the combo (in the game, a large explosion). The investigators originally thought arrows indicated trans.

      No, the ammo industry has recognized the quickly emerging Trans Mass Shooter demographic, and have developed a new line of bullets especially designed for the unique requirements of Trans Mass Shooters, called TransAmmo!® (Patent Pending).

    If this turns out to be true, and really even if it doesn’t, I’m just tired of MAGA on MAGA gang violence in the USA. Can’t these people just settle their differences over a Bible or the blood of baby Jesus?

      I dont like MAGA on MAGA violence and would like it to stop but if it must continue can they at least accept that is what it is? I’m tired of the blame that everyone non-MAGA gets before the MAGA shooter inevitably gets caught.

        No maga cannot accept that, such is anathema to their very existence. Their entire identity is to reject, foaming at the mouth, anything that runs counter to the propaganda they’ve been brainwashed into believing is true.

      Somebody pointed out to me apparently that tracksuit he dressed up in, pepe memes and such were tied into him being a Nick Fuentes fan. Apparently Fuentes and Kirk had a fued, i don’t know anything about it though.

      Meaning this could have just been a Fuentes follower that hated Kirk
