    Soon after Charlie Kirk’s assassination, some on the political left quickly spread a baseless theory that the conservative podcaster was killed by a follower of the ultra-right-wing group called Groypers.

    Authorities told Axios they believe Robinson’s romantic relationship with his transgender roommate could be key to determining a motive for Kirk’s killing, and that Robinson believed that the conservative was spreading transphobic hate.

    Robinson “wasn’t too fond of Trump or Charlie [Kirk],” a former coworker of his told CNN.

    Reality check: As noted by Time Magazine, those who have covered Fuentes downplayed connections between Robinson and the movement.

    I don’t think reality is welcome on Lemmy at this point.




  • Screenshots obtained by The New York Times paint a picture of zero remorse, just meme-fueled mockery as authorities scrambled in a manhunt. “Tyler killed Charlie!!!” one user tagged him hours after the shot; Robinson fired back, “My doppelganger’s trying to get me in trouble.” When someone quipped about snagging the FBI’s $100,000 reward, he shot back, “Only if I get a cut.” And in a sick twist, he joked about ditching a “manifesto and exact copy rifle” lying around— all while monitoring news coverage and mocking the engravings on his ammo that screamed ANTIFA ideology.

    This is not a groyper, but again, the truth will continue to come to light. The FBI already found the copy rifle from other sources I’ve seen, but they have everything they need to prosecute.
