On and On and On It Goes - Trump thread #148

[Spandauer]

It's been 9 horrible months and I find myself looking back on those "eating the cats and dogs" days with nostalgia.

Except maybe the 'Bella Ciao' reference to the Italian resistance song - so antifa according to BBC Verify?

I would love a meme on 'where's Joey in London?'. 🧐👀

Bella Ciao is also a theme song in a game from what X is saying

Far Cry 6 and Heart of Iron 4 according to google

Someone needs to tell BBC verify as they seem convinced he's antifa!

What a W⚓ hahaha

Love The Poke

My DD is on this and she says... The shooter was part of this. A groyper. She knows her stuff does my daughter

basically the groypers are a group of far right white nationalists, who are very very online
and they are basically followers of nick Fuentes, who is another big alt-right figure
and fuentes hated Charlie kirk, viewed him as a fake conservative

there was something called the groyper war of 2019, where it was like fuentes supporters vs Kirk supporters

NOT Antifa

Red on red then.

Maga on maga

Thanks for explaining what a groyper is, @BustingBaoBun . I was about to ask as I was too scared to google...

Frogs feature!
He was dressed in something attributable to frogs

Now I'm confused again... but I'm OK with that!

I know of Pepe the Frog as a meme character loved by some of that ilk. But that's probably, like, so last decade...

<old person>

I'm clueless and relying on DD.
Apols if she has got it wrong!

Pepe the frog is associated with white supremacy now

Thanks for sharing with us Gen Xers who have no clue about the MAGA on MAGA beef!

Yes, sorry, that's what I meant: Pepe the Frog a fave among white supremacists. But I'm not sure if that's the frog @BustingBaoBun 's daughter is referring to.

But please don't go to any trouble to find out! It hasn't yet been confirmed that the killer had a groyper connection.

All speculation at this point ofcourse, but Bella Ciao doesn't automatically mean Antifa

I read about the frog thing a while back in relation to Musk

I was just about to ask if the groyper connection is fact. I haven't seen it on the news.

I find the idea that Kirk wasn't right wing enough horrifying

Agree. Could be a theory. Something to do with his history and the clothes he had on

Thank you for explaining. I was about to start googling. 😬

@BustingBaoBun you learn something new every day. 🤯

Well they weren’t wrong

This is my DCs theory from what she's researched but she is usually on the money. In fact she is never usually wrong
We will wait and see what comes out and how much is scrubbed off and deleted

David Schuster has tweeted similar to your DD
