A Wall Street Journal report, citing an ATF bulletin, had previously said the casings were “engraved with expressions of transgender and antifascist ideology.” The transgender symbols were later understood to relate to markings identifying the manufacturer.
And a third unfired case read: “If you read this, you are gay LMAO.”
FBI director concludes speech with “Rest now, my brother, we have the watch, and I’ll see you at Valhalla”
Reality is satire
He did not seriously say the valhalla line, did he? Please tell me that was actual satire?
Who is this trans-ideology ammunition manufacturer?
Is trans ideology even a thing? I thought it was just people trying to live authentic lives?
Is trans ideology even a thing?
That’s called a Linux subreddit
I thought it was just people trying to live authentic lives?
It is
But fascists are trying to genocide us and will use any tool available to them
It should also be noted that “transgender ideology” is a term coined for and used in anti-trans political messaging to falsely equate identity with politics, which is a way to frame transgender identity as a political choice rather than an innate identity.
Probably Turan - you can see that “TRN” is stamped onto their bullets.
“I’ll see you in Valhalla”
Obvious Nazi dogwhistle is obvious.
Nazis are obsessed with Norse mythology.
This is true and as I am familiar with Norse mythology neither of them are eligible to go there.
Inscriptions on a fired casing read: “notices bulges” capital “O-W-O what’s this?”
Imagine having to say that at a press conference.
So to sum up, Charlie Kirk was downplaying gun violence in the US, and using a racist dogwhistle to do so, WHILE standing under a giant fucking “prove me wrong” banner, when he was shot with a bullet labeled “OWO what’s this?” by a Mormon cop’s kid from Utah (ie, whiter than raisins in potato salad).
That is an actual fucking series of events that actually fucking happened. We’ve gone past “the onion is reality” to “this would be too on the nose if it was an onion article and yet it’s somehow reality”.
this is very besides the point, but “whiter than raisins”?? i’m scared to ask, but how white are your raisins, americans?
edit: after further research, it seems like american raisins are not white either, in which case, wtf is this sayingThey said “whiter than raisins in potato salad.” It’s a meme saying that white people put raisins in potato salad.
There’s a book by street lit author Quan Millz called Becky Put Raisins in the Potato Salad. This is actually where I heard about it and I was like “ew! Raisins in potato salad??”
I’ve never seen a potato salad with raisins in it. Sounds gross.
Not whiter than raisins, whiter than “[putting] raisins in potato salad.” It’s a reference to cooking. Also, I’ve never seen anyone do thay and I’m from the US south, so…pretty white I guess.
I opened up Ground News today and the mainstream news sources are just full of this statement that the bullets were “engraved with transgender ideology.” Someone has been making very sure this falsehood is the message all the journalists take away and report. And now it has been all over the news throughout the day.
It’s horrible seeing the fascists lie and lie to set up trans people as villains and enemies.
And what’s with this “anti-fascist ideology” thing? Remember before 2015 when anti-fascist ideology was just the default and the baseline for being even a half-decent person?
Anti-fascist ideology
Damned straight.
Can we find the person who, for no apparent reason, interpreted manufacturers markings as apparent ‘trans ideology’ and ask him wtf that was supposed to accomplish? I mean if you don’t know what some markings mean, aside from blatant bias is there any possible way to get to ‘trans ideology’ from manufacturers markings? Are they using male/female icons? Emojis? Printing them in rainbow colors?
EDIT: the misinterpretation may actually be a series of arrows related to a Helldivers 2 move. Up, right, down, down, down. There is an anti fascist icon of three downward arrows. I’m guessing the idiots thought the other two arrows looked like those astrological gender icons and decided that must mean trans somehow.
TRN. It’s the manufacturers code for a Turkish company called Turan. That’s what I heard at any rate.
Identifying that as trans is just rank incompetence. Anyone that stupid would be fired in a sane world. Under our fascist regime, new FBI director incoming.
