Extremists and an anonymously run website are posting identifying details about people accused of celebrating Charlie Kirk’s murder online. Some of those targeted are now getting death threats.

    Yeah, I’m sure “my dad was killed by liberals” will help with them being less filled with hate.

      Helldiver’s 2 memes, dads a 3 percenter, meme costumes - killed by an alt-right groyper is what appears to be accurate.

      Fuentes had big issues with Kirk in the past, going back the better part of a decade. They used to interrupt Turning Point events.

      Dad got killed by maga who felt some maga weren’t maga enough.

          Its a good question, and I just don’t know enough about her to say. They will find out sooner rather than later though I’m sure.

              I haven’t seen it, if its written somewhere I’d like the link to read it.

              That said, I don’t think prepared speeches represent the person, especially in a situation like this - Its generally prepared for a reason.

              Edit: Just read it.

              Well… Yeah I guess it fits since she married Kirk in the first place. I’m going to guess those kids will be getting the alt-right answers to every question they may have.

              Oof.

        Yeah, it looks like it might have been a fasc-on-fasc faction fight. If that’s what it is, it’ll be interesting to see the contortions right-wing media will go to to still blame it on the usual scapegoats.

        I read that last sentence as “Dad got killed by Marklar who felt some Marklar weren’t Marklar enough”.

      The shooter was (unsurprisingly) a white Christian male, cis gendered. He hated Nazis and wanted to kill one.
