Actually, this wasn't such a thing until the Kirk shooting and the entire right wing decided in 20 seconds flat that every Democrat murdered Charlie Kirk. So they'll be getting a more fact based version of that for the foreseeable future. We're sick of taking the high road.

    Nah, every school shooter have been defaulting as Muslim since forever and more recently trans, until it was found that, once again, it's a cis white boy.

    Right, I definitely get that the right has always been doing this. It wasn't so much a thing coming from the left though. We already knew the likely politics of the perpetrator. It wasn't a big thing for us. Now though, they're going to get it shoved in their face every time.
