Some really mind bending shit on r/conservative right now. Apparently the guardian posted and retracted some horseshit from a liar claiming to know Robinson and that he was a leftist. Conveniently none of the conservative dipshits noticed the retraction at the top:
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/sep/12/suspect-charlie-kirk-shooting
At least I'm assuming the editor's note means they removed the quotes the conservatives posted. Either that or they posted a fake screenshot.
I check into that sub every now and then to remind myself of what mental illness looks like.
It's not mental illness, it's just an echo chamber. I also visit it from time to time to question if the content I consume suffers from the same problem.
Echo chambers are one thing, but the severe cognitive dissonance it takes to be MAGA these days makes me think there's something more there.
I do the same on r/TwoXChromosomes sometimes
If i ever go there, it will to be post a meme about Trump releasing a memorial (grifter's) edition golden neck brace.
i peeked into that sub, they are claiming MSM are making fun of him, instead of honoring him.
I'm just interested in the truth of it. People are jumping to conclusions, but definitely conservatives more so. I suspect that deep down they know almost all political violence comes from their side, though they somehow deny that fact.
Wouldn't surprise me at all if the person who lied to the guardian was just a far right person hoping to help their narrative
conservatives only jump to conclusions.
Sadly all my right leaning friends insist the killer was a leftist and the media is lying
Cool sorry brother, let's stick to the fact that the assassin was a MAGAt.
