This is my priors on this too, btw. But we will see what we see. As i said before believe nothing you don’t see validated by trusted sources. #charliekirk

A post by "olive consumer" discusses Tyler Robinson's apparent motivations, describing him as an "online-poisoned idiot gamer" rather than a "violent antifascist leftist" or "groyper."

@tchambers Here’s a different idea. Maybe he was just a kid in love, who saw a man spreading hatred that endangered the person he loved. And he broke.

#charliekirk “The messages [on the bullets] are mostly a big meme” …that answers that bit. https://www.threads.com/@harryjsisson/post/DOrMeidkSEG?xmt=AQF0ALzNPhbbGx8ghOxvjg9HZvrSDHeK_58gAJI0yVdY0A&slof=1

@tchambers Yeah… those bullet casing inscriptions sound like brain-rot very online radicalization.

@tchambers

Generally those who shoot moderate conservative (libertarian) speakers are either:

1. Leftists, or
2. Far-Righters

So the whole "blame the video games" thing falls flat to me, besides being how conservative Christians called for blocking our video games since the 1980s.

Do you want content warning labels on Slayer albums too? haha
