on 02025-09-16a Reddit comment by Lance Twiggs complaining that /r/JordanPeterson is not an actual #Jordan-Peterson subreddit but just discussed “shitty clickbait articles”, saying, “Oh no I’ve read Jordan Peterson books, listened to lots of his YouTube lectures also, I just enjoy trolling post kinda subreddits” #Kirk #USA #politics
on 02025-09-16a Reddit comment by Lance Twiggs on /r/JordanPeterson, in response to the question “How can an average person like myself avoid perilous pitfalls, such as ideological entanglements, when even individuals with higher moral and intellectual caliber have fallen into them?”, answering, “Honestly I think everyone is going to land in these pitfalls, it’s part of being human. Doing your best to recognize and remedy that is all you can do. Keep your strongest truths close to heart and don’t be easily swayed in any direction without a strong and well put together reason. Even then you’ll sometimes realize the environment, friends, or communities you choose to spend time with aren’t helping you grow or progress, or may otherwise be pushing towards an echo chamber. Being able to take a step away and reprioritize is the best you can do. If you aren’t ever in a situation you didn’t want to be in, chances are you never go out and meet people in general. Remember that just discussing a topic doesn’t mean falling into an ideological pitfall. Keep your statements and opinions in line with each other, and make your own opinions based on factual evidence you have seen or read. I think the largest pitfall anyone could fall into would be to simply take to heart the opinions they see on social media. If you don’t choose a side, a side will many times choose you. Keep yourself grounded mentally and emotionally, and don’t worry yourself about being infallible.” #Kirk #USA #politics
on 02025-09-16a Reddit comment by Lance Twiggs on /r/shrooms saying, “i’d go to conversion therapy if that [taking shrooms to bring out sexual feelings you didn’t feel as much before] was the shtick lol, better than the electroshock my area endorses.” #Kirk #USA #politics

on 02025-09-16this is the 02016 origin of the Pepe Slav Squat image that Tyler Robinson was probably referencing in his 02018 Halloween costume, upvoted to 11200 points. #Kirk #USA #politics #history
on 02025-09-16“Why Do Slavs Squat? is a satirical catchphrase associated with imageboards and forums discussing Eastern European people and cultures. The catchphrase is usually accompanied by pictures of squatting Slavic people in tracksuits, most time engaging in stereotypical eastern European behavior like consumption of vodka and cigarettes and participation in street gambling. The pose was closely related to the Gopnik stereotype about Russian and Slavic men.” This is the 02012 meme Tyler Robinson was referencing in his 02018 Halloween costume. #Kirk #USA #politics #history
on 02025-09-16Nick #Fuentes’s “Groyper” movement started in 02019, two years after the Halloween photo of Tyler Robinson Slav-squatting in a tracksuit. So evidently he wasn’t a Groyper at the time because Groypers didn’t exist. #Kirk #USA #politics
on 02025-09-16more translated Weibo posts, talking about the #Kirk assassination from the perspective of someone in #China: “You can say that Robinson removed a vermin for the world, and removed a threat to China. (...) So, this Kirk event has destined that once #Trump is out of office, the Democrats will be back in power. And this homosexual, Robinson, with hands covered in blood might encourage others from the same camp to learn from him.” #politics #USA

The judge issues a pretrial protective order in favor of Erika Kirk. Judge Graf reads the charges, including a “victim targeting enhancement” (Utah code, annotated, 76-3-203.14(2)) because it was a political assassination. #USA #politics #Kirk #news
on 02025-09-16#news #video footage of Tyler Robinson charges being read by County Attorney Jeff Gray. Refers to the roommate/lover (who Robinson allegedly asked to delete text messages) as “him”, suggesting Robinson was bi or gay, although Chris Stewart (the troll who created this video) says the roommate was MtF trans. “A biological male who was involved in a romantic relationship with Robinson”, according to the prosecutor. Robinson’s text message: “I am still ok my love, but am stuck in orem for a little while longer yet. Shouldn’t be long until I can come home, but I gotta grab my rifle still. To be honest I had hoped to keep this secret till I died of old age. I am sorry to involve you.” Then he confessed. When asked, “Why?” he said, “I had enough of his hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out. If I am able to grab my rifle unseen, I will have left no evidence.” Prosecutor also alleged, “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. This resulted in several discussions with family members, but especially between Robinson and his father, who have very different political views.” The video is unbearably long and full of talking heads and repeated stock footage and stills. The trolls making the video say they expect federal charges, though so far only state charges have been filed, and that probably Robinson would be better off in a Federal prison. #USA #politics #Kirk

on 02025-09-16Another source for Charlie #Kirk endorsing stoning gay people. #USA #politics #history #crime
on 02025-09-15The source in which Charlie #Kirk appears to have said killing gay people was “God’s perfect law”, a “Thoughtcrime” panel discussion with four people. Kirk in #video clip: “The second part is Leviticus 19. So you love God. So you must love his law. How do you love somebody? You love them by telling them the truth, not by confirming or affirming their sin. And it says, by the way, Miss Rachel, you might want to crack open that Bible of yours, in a lesser-referenced part of the same part of Scripture, is in Leviticus 18, is that thou shall lay with another man, shall be stoned to death. Just saying. So, Miss Rachel, you quote Leviticus 19, love your neighbor as yourself, the chapter before affirms God’s perfect law when it comes to sexual matters.” #USA #politics #history
on 02025-09-15URL of Charlie #Kirk article from before his assassination, which said, “In 2024, Kirk cited Leviticus 20:13 (“If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them”) as “God’s perfect law when it comes to sexual matters”.[106]” . #USA #politics #history
on 02025-09-15#Kirk assassination suspect: “The bolt-action rifle Robinson used and left in a wooded area near the campus had various phrases engraved on the bullet casings, Cox said, including “Oh bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao ciao,” which appeared to reference an Italian anti-fascist song.” #USA #politics
on 02025-09-12“An official emblem of the Social Democratic Party of Germany and its paramilitary wing the Iron Front; anti-fascist symbol designed to deface the Nazi swastika. (...) The Three Arrows symbol is popularly used within the #antifa movement in the United States, along with flags based on the symbol of antifa in Germany. Sections of the American Left, including the Young People’s Socialist League, have adopted the Three Arrows as a logo.” #history #Kirk
on 02025-09-12Charlie #Kirk assassination suspect Tyler Robinson may have been #antifa: “Meanwhile, other casings could be interpreted as sympathetic to Antifa, or the anti-fascist movement, a loose collection of far-left activists who have been active in the US over the last decade and often demonstrate against Trump policies and far-right groups.
One unfired casing had the words “Hey fascist! Catch!” and an up, right and three down arrows.
The three down arrows alone could be a common symbol used for anti-fascism. As a whole, the sequence of arrows could reference a cheat code in a video game - although this remains unclear, and authorities have not yet released images of the casings.
A second casing was inscribed with lyrics to the song “Bella Ciao” that honours World War Two-era partisans of the Italian resistance who fought Nazi Germany.” #USA #politics #history #oh-shit
on 02025-09-12Charlie #Kirk assassination suspect Tyler Robinson (22 years old) confessed, according to hearsay, and was wearing the same clothes as the shooter. “Según el gobernador Cox, encontraron un rifle de cerrojo envuelto en una toalla oscura y con una mira telescópica. También encontraron inscripciones en los casquillos de las balas que decían, por ejemplo, “¡Oye, fascista! ¡Atrápalo!”, “Oh, bella ciao, bella ciao” y “Si lees esto eres gay jajaja”.” #USA #politics #history
