Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I'm surprised they didn't do more to manufacture something on Tyler when he was arrested. It's kind of like they were all so sure the shooter would be brown, an immigrant, or trans that they got lazy. Now it's getting late and they need something before files are charged this week. Chuds have been putting in OT either being voluntarily mods for the whole internet or manufacturing photos/text.
If I'm giving them a little bit more grace, I think they just weren't aware of how big the far right (farther than Kirk) is, so they hadn't even thought of the possibility that the shooter's politics would be to the right of Kirk's. It's Utah, I doubt they thought it would be anything but a cis white dude.
did they forget charlottesville?
They don't care about that event because they brushed it under the rug.
Chud media pundits defended the murder in Charlottesville by saying Heather was fat, so she deserved it.
I have zero sympathy for these evil bastards.
