Anyone got insights to a right-wing forum and what they’re saying? Blaming the libs? Advocating for violence? What conspiracies are they putting together?

[–] return2ozma@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Right wingers on Twitter are saying libs "need to pay", Biden did it, even.. "god saved Trump" - Marco Rubio

My mind is that at least its happening while bidden is still president.

[–] Godric@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago

Considering this left wing forum's opinion seems to be trending "dang they missed", the opposite reaction is probably not noble.

This is from Nigel Farage, a UK right wing politician - blaming the liberals and their rhetoric for encouraging it to happen.

Surely they fully support the shooter right? After all, pro-gun people have been telling us for decades that dogshit gun laws are needed so that if any politician becomes a tyrannical, they can be executed by some random civilian.

So I guess the shooter was just a responsible gun owner who thought Trump was a tyrant. They've never actually articulated what a tyrant was or at what point they should be killed, so I guess it was just up to whatever some unhinged gun owner thought.

Tbf I think it's the leftists putting the conspiracies about it being staged this time

There’s no shortage of conspiracy makers here. It’s irritating as heck.

I've seen one meme so far from a conservative claiming that the left is (as usual) cannibalizing itself by arguing between "why'd he missed" and "it was faked"

I'm not doubting that people on the left are claiming it's fake, but I definitely haven't seen it nearly as much as people expressing disappointment that the shot missed

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I've seen so many people on here claiming it was faked lol.

[–] Twelve20two@slrpnk.net 1 points 4 months ago

I don't doubt it
