In reply to the discussion: How do we know he was a Groyper? [View all]RockRaven
(18,608 posts)28. We don't KNOW know. One of the problems with the terminally online,
whether they be Groypers or accelerationists or leftists or doomers or none of the above, is that terminally online people use stuff both ironically and unironically, both online and irl. One picture or post isn't enough to know. A thorough examination of his online history would do it, but who has access to that now? The best raw info is in the hands of the least reliable sources (Repug controlled law enforcement).
