WJS, is that the same newspaper that reported the 40 beheaded babies in Israel then retracted it?

Wall Journal Street?
The bullets being engraved thing smelled like bullshit from the beginning, I can’t believe I bought it the first time around when that CEO was shot in front of the Hilton
It amuses me how much misinformation is on lemmy, which is what this site's members espouse to be against.
I don't even get how any editor lives down something like this. Giving green light on publish here is such an incredibly incompetent move
There was one unused casing that said something like “take that fascist” so I can understand why they’d call it anti fascist. The cringe ones were just assigned to trans people who also have online cringe culture.
I spend a lot of time on Lemmy and am only vaguely aware of trans culture. I don't expect a random regular person to even know there's an online trans cilture, much less identify signs of it.
Conservatives are incapable of being shamed. They elected a pedophile and convicted felon who put together the least qualified government in history, and cheered when a South African Nazi threw out Nazi salutes behind the podium of the president. If none of that could make them feel ashamed, then falsely blaming the shooting on their current greatest enemy, trans people, has no chance.
With radical politcal groups, this is a feature not a bug. By going along with obvious bullshit, you prove your loyalty to the tribe.
Is that also why people here celebrate violence over dialogue?
Release the Epstein files.
Well pedo-prez is certainly enjoying a break from this right now. Once again, and for the last time, Charlie has been his useful idiot.
Rumour has it the Epstein files are scrawled with transgender ideology, only one way to know for true.
Thank you, mainstream media, for showing how complicit and willing you are to shill any view given by those in power.
Journalism is dead and has been for decades, sadly.
They feared satire would be dead, but the onion has been killing it

Damage was done and the anger it put into conservative hearts isnt going away even if they admit it was bullshit. They will justify their anger with some vague comeback and keep on hating
Transgender ideology?
"You should install linux"
The killshot casing said “*notices bulge* OWO what’s this?” or something very very close, so I think that’s what they were going off of.

This was too stupid to be true, yet they ran with it. The MSM is dying, from self-inflicted wounds.
Pretty sure false headlines like this actually increase engagement, and the retraction increases engagement again. They are optimally playing the capitalism game, not dying.

Publish BS that one side of the political aisle wants to hear & they eat it up.
-
Publish article calling out the first story's BS, and get those on the other side of the political aisle eating it up.

Profit!
EDIT: fixed "aisle" thanks to @imsufferableninja@sh.itjust.works. I know that's the correct word, but I dunno why I didn't think of it when writing this initially. I think my brain's slowly turning to mush as I age.
sigh
Great strategy for when consequences are none

Like they’d ever apologize. “Well this is what libs do anyway…”

Suspect's bullet casings had anti-fascist inscriptions engraved
By Danielle Abreu
Gov. Cox confirmed that investigators discovered a bolt-action rifle and scope wrapped in a towel and inscriptions engraved on bullet casings belonging to the suspect in the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk.
One of the inscriptions read, "Hey, fascist. Catch!" and another read, “If you read this, you are gay." A third casing had the lyrics to “Bella Ciao," an Italian folk anthem sung by the anti-fascist resistance movement during World War II.
Looks like it's possible. Sidenote, hilarious to me hearing the Utah governor read what sounds like c/196 transcriptions in such an official voice.
Reuters:
The bullet that killed Kirk had also been inscribed: "Notices Buldge OWO what’s this?”
Not enough people are talking about this. Makes 0 sense in context but great regardless.

Rupert Murdoch deserves to be flayed alive for his crimes against humanity and its societies.
Nothing will happen as a result of this, if justice is going to be brought against the global oligarchy it won't come from our governments.
Damage is done. MAGA idiots will run with this regardless. Look at the anti-vaxx crowd as examples

Would like more confirmation on this than a picture of a tweet saying so.
Its very much still up, now just framed in a "maybe do your own research before believing us" kinda way lmao

Regressives feel no shame. People without empathy don't feel shame. They do promote and support hate.
