Kirk Assassination, Propaganda of the Deed, and Luigi (anarchist.nexus)

According to AP, there were messages engraved on the casings in the Kirk shooting. They read:

  • One read, “hey fascist! catch!” with an up arrow symbol, right arrow symbol, and three down arrow symbols. 
  • Another one read: “oh bella ciao bella ciao bella ciao ciao ciao,” Cox said. 
  • The third fired casing read: “if you read this you are gay lmao.”

My first thought is. Whoever killed Kirk was clearly inspired by Luigi. The writing on the casings just like Luigi did. The timing. It just makes sense.

Does this mean Luigi’s propaganda of the deed was successful? I think so. In any case, I wonder if this means there is more to come.

Careful there. That's not according to the AP, that's ultimately according to the FBI. And if you think Kash Patel and his yes-men are above fabricating evidence to enable Trump to pin the murder on the woke-DEI-LGBT-left-whatever, I have a bridge to sell you.

I'll believe it when I see it, and not with a missing minute in the video.

Sure it’s possible it was fabricated. But I don’t think it’s particularly outlandish.

In any case, with your comments feedback in mind, perhaps the original discussion should be had with the caveat of “assuming these engravings are legitimate (not given)”

Yeah it's plausible. It's just that you can't trust anything any part of the US administration says is true and impartial anymore, is my point.

Same I’m quite skeptical. Also skeptical a cover-up would last long without falling apart given how smart and well coordinated the trump team is. Fingers crossed.

Though always skeptical, I believe this 96.73%. If the government was going to scratch up some fake shells, they could make that "evidence" hella more inflammatory.
