We need an archive link to this from this guy OR someone else verifying that this is true. I tried to find it, but couldn't. I'll give everyone a half an hour.

I now spent close to an hour trying to figure out Robinson's political leanings, and as of right now the internet simply does not know.

This is the closest:

A public records database shows Robinson’s family resides in Washington, Utah, where Trump garnered support from 75% of voters in the 2024 presidential election. Robinson’s parents have Republican listed as their party affiliation, said public voter registration information, and they are considered active voters (each cast ballots in the 2024 election that gave Trump a second presidency).

Public records also indicated Robinson registered as a voter in Utah in July 2021 but was considered inactive and did not declare an affiliation to any party when he registered.

And then there's a lot of talk about bullet engravings which leave me very confused. How can you engrave "If you're reading this you're gay" - 26 characters onto a single bullet? Even so, the messaging is open to interpretation. We simply do not know yet, and we might never know 100%! He's conflicted, that much seems clear.

IMHO most timely and objective article as of right now: LA Times

30.06 is a large bullet and the words were allegedly written on the cases of the bullets, not the rounds themselves. Good to be skeptical but a fine point Sharpie could get 26 characters on there if you had small handwriting or did multiple lines or whatever.

Yup. And you could probably engrave it with a nail, so the barrier here is pretty low, but it would probably take an hour or so to engrave a simple message because it's kinda hard.

Even so, the messaging is open to interpretation.

Really?

I don't know what the commenter meant, but my guess would be that they meant the statement could've been a lighthearted joke or homophobic and it isn't clear which.

If you’re reading this you’re gay

If you’re reading this you’re gay, LMAO...

"IfURReadngthisURG"

It's tighter but gets the same message across

[–] pemptago@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 hours ago

"URG? Must be trans ideology..."

- the FBI, probably

I assume you mean proof as to the claims.
But just in case if you mean the tweet being made and made by that account, it is still up and I made an archived version of it.

The account claims to be

journalist [...] TYT.com Rebel HQ. Previously anchored for MSNBC + AJAM

I'm going to leave this up and let you all decide if this is true or not. He hasn't been confirmed as this journalist, but x is a POS organization, so everyone gets to decide for themselves.
