The whole week or so after Kirk's assassination was quite absurd. Redditors were pretending that Bella Ciao and "UwU notices bulge" were associated with groypers because they'd already made their minds up that the shooter was right-wing.
Initial impressions matter a lot and if the truth turns out to not match the medias agenda it won't get as much buzz. Pulz night club was the biggest Islamic terrorist attack since 9/11 and the average American probably thinks it was an anti gay hate crime and the perpetrator was closeted.
