All of those slogans are from ultra violent video games. They have nothing to do with politics. The song was on a Fuentes Groyper playlist. If that's all you have you're going to have to keep looking.

Suspect's high school friend says Robinson was the only 'leftist' in a family of 'very hard' Republicans

In a phone interview on Friday, one of Tyler Robinson’s high school friends, who asked to remain anonymous, said that the suspect was “pretty left on everything” and was “the only member of his family that was really leftist”.

“The rest of his family was very hard Republican,” the friend said.

Around sophomore year, the friend said, Robinson became more extreme in his political views and would “always just be ranting and arguing about them”.

The friend said that they played video games together a lot in high school and noted that the bullet engraving with the arrows was a reference to Helldivers 2 – which we mentioned earlier. He said that the arrows specifically were in reference to “calling in a big bomb that exists” in the game “called the 500 kilogram”.

When the friend saw the news on Friday, he said that he was shocked. “I knew he [Robinson] had strong political views, but I never thought it would even go near that far.”

The friend said that he has not spoken to Robinson in years and began to drift apart toward the end of high school. Another high school classmate separately told the Guardian that the friend and Robinson were close in school and would play video games.

He never said anything about Charlie Kirk spreading hate, that was Spencer Cox misspeaking. Keep up!

No one on the left is joining the Kirk hero worship, but that doesn't mean the left can't accept that any political violence is wrong. The right didn't provide the same grade when Mr. Pelosi was beaten or when Minnesotan politicians were shot and killed.

Kirk was the "nice guy" that allegedly the left wanted to debate. And yet he was killed... and the left celebrated, cheered, and put out t-shirts. This site is full of "Kirk said stuff so it's good he was killed!" type posts.

And people have noticed the reaction of the left. And noticed just how gleeful and celebratory the left was when someone who holds beliefs the vast majority of Americans hold, such as "DEI is bad" and "men in dresses do not belong in women's sports" was killed.

It's patently obvious it is not just Kirk that the left wants dead. The reaction by leftists has made it crystal clear.


His debates were staged and cherrypicked and he refused to debate anyone with a brain. Bad faith actor.

That said I no longer give a crap what you think and want to say about the left, because it's all completely irrelevant now that we know the guy who shot him wasn't even a leftist, he's an alt-right groyper, as seen in the memes that the shooter embraced. That's right, the shooter was not a "deranged leftist" - he was to the right of Charlie Kirk. The groypers view Kirk as a sellout, and as a fake conservative.


That seems to be the new talking point - shooter’s motive doesn’t matter, what really matters is the celebrating lefties who hate America and must be stopped


There's no "new talking point" - it's just you idiots with your same old bogus talking point of "blame everything on the left" even when all indications now are that the shooter was alt-right. When your stale talking point doesn't comport with reality you complain and accuse others of changing the narrative, when in fact it was yours that was wrong all along.

DCUM is the original realtime BS creator


You must realize that it’s not just DCUM, right? If you have down time, you can watch as the same nonsense argument hits Reddit and DCUM at the same time. I’m sure twitter and whatever Trump’s twitter is called get the same crap at the same time too.


But dcum is supposed to be smarter, and post links from reputable sources.

Not spread misinformation and propaganda as fact or truth.


No one said we have to post links here. And the person is being "smart" actually, you just don't agree with them.

For all the torturous mental-gymnastics in your blog post, desperately trying to hide behind “it’s complicated” to escape assigning blame, you missed the big picture here:

- one political party is a welcoming home to all the hateful people out there who are celebrating this murder (and that party is not the republican party).

They have been. That's what you get when you have a cult. Lots of irrational fighting.

The only way to lower the temperature of our political climate is to have honest conversations about what is happening. People are becoming increasingly radicalized and justifying the use of violence. Something like this should have never happened and we need to make sure it doesn’t happen in the future. If your kid has a sudden interest in left wing politics then you need to view it as a red flag. Make sure they don’t have access to weapons and suggest that they go to therapy or start exercising.


But stop pretending it is JUST left wing.

It is exhausting how you people ignore all evidence that dues not support your preferred narrative!

It is a mental illness, I swear.

First of all, no Democrats I know are celebrating this murder.

Secondly, Kirk himself celebrated the kidnapping attempt on Nancy Pelosi, and the hammer attack on her husband. So, try not to pat yourself on the back too hard.

I don’t think liberal would find issues with him being liberal because the idea that liberals would kill someone who is MAGA is not part of mainstream liberal thinking. Most liberals have MAGA family, which they view with concern and annoyance but murdering someone over politics is not ok. Only extreme fringe folks celebrated his death. Most liberals I know were horrified by his murder because murder is wrong. If he is liberal, justice should be served for Kirk’s murder.

But honestly, all evidence/posts seemed to be pointing groypers.

Far right wing on right wing violence still being blamed on liberals.

Both shooters were far right wing straight white guys on Sept 10th.

Republicans are just chomping at the bit for civil war and will apparently do whatever it takes to get there.

Meanwhile us libs want universal health care and gun control.
