"Groyper?" Connection to shooter Robinson?

Turns out Robinson was a Groyper. Alt- right group started by holocaust and Jan 6 denier Nick Puentes. Thinks Charlie Kirk and the MAGAs don't go far enough. Christian White Nationalists and fans of an alt-right video game and Spotify playlist. Snarky internet trolls. Pedro The Frog. Charlie and his cop-turned crazy preacher criticized Kirk a lot. Bullet casing references to "Bella Ciao", an anti-fascist WWII song they used sarcastically because it was used sarcastically in a video game. Another radicalized gun nut with insane parents who indulged his lunacy.



Above is from a friend on Facebook, I haven’t researched it yet.

He seems like an ardent gamer and gun enthusiast, with incoherent political beliefs

After all, the OP saw it on a friend's Facebook and posted a thread without further research.

How much proof do you need??

Like a mafia war? Going to the mattresses? And the rest of us can all sit back and watch?
