TranscriptScreenshot of a Tumblr post by sonicguillotine:

For the past few years any time there’s a public shooting, political or not, fascists immediately begin pushing a narrative that the shooter had some connection to the trans community, anarchist or communist politics, to migrant or Black communities. These are always tenuous claims but now with multiple racist lynchings following Kirk’s death, it’s time to recognize the danger of these kinds of mythmakings. They are calls to violence.

Hello! This is incorrect. Please check the latest news headlines or if that isn't enough, people found his social media.

Unless you mean that Tyler Robinson was not fascist enough. Maybe if he was not obsessed with the idea of "anti fascism" to the point of being convinced to murder political opponents, he could have been a decent member of society instead of facing a firing squad.

    The latest news I have seen are a couple days old but none of them ever stated that he killed him because of any trans rights or anything similar.

    I will also not be looking at any social media because I have stopped using those years ago.
