Antifa is a loosely organized group of like minded individuals. There is no official membership, it’s an ideology welcome to any who share this world view. They develop tactics to intimidate and silence their opponents and help each other cover illegal and immoral behavior. This can be hitting people in the head with bike locks, throwing cups full of cement, lighting buildings on fire, and other destructive behavior. They wear black bloc and cover their faces so as not to be easily identifiable. They claim to be the good guys “fighting Nazis”, but really they’re a bunch of thuggish larpers with social behavior conditions and a lack of morals. I have hours and hours of video footage of Antifa individuals perpetrating violent and destructive acts against those they disagree with. They lean heavily into the untrue sentiment that they aren’t an organization as it allows them to side step any kind of legal accountability. In reality they operate sort of like sleeper cells in different regions protesting, rioting, stoking the flames to silence their political opponents. They’re scum.
Proud boys, 3%s and Groypers more your speed?
when I think about thuggish larpers, that’s who comes to mind. violent and destructive acts - like j6?
if there’s an organization, please, out it, be my guest. do you think you’re the first sharp mind that’s tried to crack this nut?
that maybe, it’s not a giant machination, that simply there are many, many people violently upset with everything from BLM to outright fascism in the streets with ICE?
hrmm…
no, scum paraded through the streets screaming jews will not replace us.
that’s scum. fascist scum.

His Mom said he had become more political lately. Specifically left-leaning, pro-gay and pro-trans. He left a note for his trans roommate that he was going to assassinate Kirk. He said that he “Had enough of Kirks hatred” in his discord chat and inscribed pro-trans, gay and antifascist rhetoric on the bullets.
How is any of this right wing?

Plenty of trans people are right-wing Trumpers. Some of them are quite popular with plenty of videos on YouTube.

According to you, homosexuality is only about gender, not sex. This isn’t right and there is no consensus as far as I know. I would personally say a cis guy dating a trans woman is gay
gender and sex are not the same, for the 100th time
You’re the one inventing misgendering here
After a bit of research, it seems like it aims towards being based on gender and not sex, hmm. I might be wrong on this one?
I believe I might think it’s about sex because I wouldn’t be interested in a non cisgender person, but that might only be me? I had the feeling that most heterosexual people would not be interested in trans people

The funny thing is you can rotate things around “right” -> “left” and it will still be validLemmy can’t stop bitching about right, it’s honestly funnyThat’s not what happened though, is it? Where and when did this situation you are alluding to happen?

Attraction isn’t really exclusively based on sex, though. It’s about a whole range of factors, including how someone presents their personality and their physical traits. Many trans women have a lot of traits people find attractive in women generally, so being attracted to a trans woman is consistent with heterosexual attraction.
This means that liking trans women doesn’t automatically mean you’re attracted to men, so calling it gay is an oversimplification of how attraction works.
You could argue that in a strictly biological sense it is homosexual, but that ignores a whole range of social factors, which isn’t really how the term “gay” is colloquially used.

Holy poop you are coming on wrong and hard. I don’t know if the shooter conservative or not, but you desperately don’t want him to be. Probably because it would look bad for you if he was.
You’re not interested in the truth, just a narrative.
I’m challenging the certainty of this entire site. My personal opinion is that he is a broken product of a nihilistic culture. I also think that he hated Charlie because he thought Charlie hated gays even though he was a big tent conservative that was inclusive for all. What people don’t understand is that Kirk WAS the moderate conservative.

There are also plenty (arguably way more) that are lefties that hate Trump’s guts. What’s your point?

~~Kirk was definitionally a fascist.
As for what the shooter is, I’m sure time will tell. I don’t see a need to jump to conclusions on that yet.~~

What evidence? So far, none of it says he is a left winger. Everything we do know points to a MAGA family and village of similar idiots with violent tendencies and a gun-loving way of life.
“I had enough of his hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out.”
Robinson’s mother explained that over the last year or so, Robinson had become more political and had started to lean more to the left, becoming more pro–gay and trans–rights oriented. She stated that Robinson began to date his roommate, a biological male who was transitioning genders. This resulted in several discussions with family members, especially between Robinson and his father, who had very different political views.
You people are fucking dipshits.

Right. MAGA never go for self-preservation against rightwing retaliation.

Put the pieces together. Aside from what I already said:
-Estranged from right wing family
-Dating a transwoman
-Struggled with gender identity
-Complaining about hatred
None of these things are characteristic of the right.

Balance that against an entire life of rightwing indoctrination. That’s a rightwing kid with mental issues.
I will not concede this bullshit talking point that “the left” did this when we all have eyes.

Who’s somebody on the right that’s not a fascist in your view? The craziest thing is that people are calling him a Nazi when one of the biggest goals of his organization was to stake a big tent and prevent people from being radicalized. He was a “constitutionalist” milquetoast conservative. With him being killed now his audience will certainly go further right.

That’s not what happened though, is it? Where and when did this situation you are alluding to happen?
oh sure, I’m not talking about this case obviously
I was thinking about things like epstein files not being made public and left accusing right, and right accusing left
Mass surveillance, facism, war… that happened under obama now happens with trump
Don’t have examples on left blaming right when it happens though, I was mainly saying that each side will blame the other for things they have done too, but obviously I missed the point of this post because that’s clearly not it. I also believe I wanted to say that one side is quick to accuse the other without real evidence, and assumes that the other one is responsible when it’s not that simple.
after re-reading my comment I feel dumb, I’ll strike the text. Sorry.

I get it. Calling it hetero would seem like an oversimplification as well though. We need more words!
Attraction isn’t really exclusively based on sex, though
I get it, but making it solely based on gender isn’t a good idea as well I believe. Doesn’t seem specific enough. Also, trans women and trans men don’t necessarily change physically, right? They can still look like their birth gender, that’s what’s throwing me off I believe.

That is kinda a strange way to counter my point that he is definitionally a fascist. Are you saying that if enough people are fascist then the none of them are?
I am saying that the rhetoric that Kirk used fits the definition of fascist rhetoric. If everyone in the world meets that definition, then everyone in the world is fascist. That’s how definitions work.

You are describing probably 80% of liberals. Political opinion is not genetic.
Killing someone for “spreading hate” is not a right wing phenomenon.

Lol. That’s a hell of a stretch. You’re welcome to keep pushing this line while I roll my eyes and ignore it.
