“I can say that he has been very cooperative,” Cox continued, possibly misgendering the roommate. “This partner has been incredibly cooperative, had no idea that this was happening and is working with investigators right now.”

This has to be intentional. Shitting in one hand calling it “civility” then in the other lobbing a grenade of transphobia. Love it.

    What is it’s “Actual context” then? Because that meme was originally used to make fun of furries, and then was subsequently reclaimed by said furries. All before Groypers were ever even a thing

        Still not a Groyper meme. Groypers aren’t just “young internet chuds” They’re a specific breed of young internet chud who follow Nick Fuentes. Words, in fact, mean things.

          groypers love internet chud band kid memes. also some of the bullets were directly groyper memes. nick fuentes already did the “i disavow” meme. he knows it’s him

            Leftists also love repurposing lib memes and chud memes sometimes, though. None of the bullets had anything that’s exclusive to groypers. There is not enough direct evidence to land at any conclusions, just circumstantial and contextual evidence. Fuentes is covering himself but the fact that not many people have turned against him (think about it, Zionists could just point to his straight up antisemitism, boomer chuds could just look at his general aesthetic, and they’d hate him, so this isn’t a matter of “ape doesn’t kill ape”) should tell you that this isn’t so cut and dry.

            I don’t think we should be intellectually dishonest; I was one who immediately thought he must be a groyper but the truth is you have to force one interpretation of symbols that are inherently vague and whose meaning depend on how much irony you assign to them.

              yeah but the whole thing is some niche shit. the victim is niche groyper bellyaching, the memes are niche groyper shitposting. it’s like badempanada getting shot and the shooter drew a picture of a pig shitting on its own balls on the bullet. i would bet money it’s a groyper

                  i know but groypers hated him. they thought he was spreading hate against the white race. they declared groyper war on him and the other more mainstream conservative personalities
