Guardian retracts quotes from former classmate discribing Robinson as being "pretty left on everything".

[Quixote1818]

The Guardian updated an early report on Tyler Robinson, the suspect in Charlie Kirk's murder, removing quotes from a source who described Robinson as "leftist" after the source stated they could not accurately recall details of their relationship. The original article, published September 12, 2025, included an anonymous source claiming Robinson was "pretty left on everything" in high school. For more information, visit The Guardian.

1. He retracted cause violent threats from teh LEFT!!!111!

coming, without evidence, from the wingnuts in 3, 2, 1 ...

BTW how 'left' do you think one has to be before your classmates at a High School deep in MAGA Utah, would describe you as "pretty left on everything"?

I'm inclined think "really not very" by objective standards.

Disappointed this kid's statement was printed by The Guardian in the first place.

3. Yes, it was shoddy journalism.

The source to which the remark was attributed could have been a MAGA plant who never even met T.R. in the first place.

4. Right, and the fact that his fellow students are probably mostly righties who would WANT to convey the idea

that Richardson was "not one of them" should've been considered.

2. Is the trans roommate rumor true?
