After the suspected shooter has been detained, the FBI held a press conference to report on the case and announce the next steps going forward. Spoiler: we, as leftists, are fucked.

Key points:

  • The shooter is Tyler Robinson of Utah.
  • His friend reported him to the FBI.
  • Tyler's Discord messages have been used as evidence, as provided by his roommate.
  • ~~Robinson has been reported to be getting increasingly political, and during dinner one day, he spoke about how Kirk was "full of hate".~~ UPDATE 4: Tyler did not say that.
  • The casings do not contain any trans references. But they do have anti-fascist rhetoric (bella ciao and "notices bulges OwO" included) and symbols engraved in them.
  • Tyler was taken into custody on September 11th, 10 PM local time.
  • The investigation is still ongoing.
  • One guy cried while speaking.
  • Thousands of more leads of potential accomplices are being followed.
  • No other arrests are known
  • Tyler drove to campus on a car.
  • It's not known if Tyler is mentally ill.
  • The charging documents will be filed 3 days from now (September 16), then a preliminary hearing will take place.

  • Patel awkwardly trying to signal the Norse viking larp shit. "Charlie, I'll see you in Valhalla"
  • Utah Governor Cox told everyone to log off and stop consuming rage bait, called social media a cancer, and that everyone should "touch grass" (his actual words).

Because not killing a single nazi ineffectual poster is exactly how you should look like if you do or do not cool stuff, are you for real? (well preferably you are not a poster at all and only have coupon search history and interest in cat videos)

like genuinely, say this guy is for real anarchist, aware of the history of anarchist action. What is the downside of pegging the blame on the right via non-meme inscriptions?

and he got some plausible enemies as well, like destiny or fuentes
