Can someone point me to the transphobia / racist information? Or whatever else is being alluded to constantly here. When or where was it posted?

just as I post a comment to the mod thread referencing to such info to ask about it, the thread is locked.

Edit: so far the only thing is 1 retweet of a very obnoxious article praising Richard Dawkins. Surely there is more?

I'd rather know what the person who shot Brian Thompson was posting, but it looks like we'll never know

[–] HumanBehaviorByBjork@hexbear.net 38 points 3 months ago (2 children)

did he shoot the prick or not? only question that matters.

[–] drhead@hexbear.net 35 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Brian Thompson simply had a flare-up of a very unfortunate back condition. Very unfortunate. It may have been preventable.

his body just did that

Brian Thompson died of a fentanyl overdose.

Keep checking his profile. Dude retweet loads of heinous stuff. There's barely any "left" stuff to counteract the reactionary garbage he was swallowing. Maybe in the 6ish months since he went silent and shot a CEO he changed but until there's evidence to suggest he had a change of heart he's no better than yamagami

Wait did Abe's killer have a problematic twitter?

[–] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 16 points 3 months ago

Abe's killer was an ex-military guy who I believe he said he liked Abe, but only killed him because of Abe's links to the Korean Unification Church and because the Church scammed his mother.

I've posted this several times already and it seems a pretty glaring example of his position as of 2022-ish, when I believe he retweeted this

Wait this is supposed to be a negative thing huh? I thought this was a dunk on Elon Musk tbh, saying that we will rip the system down and build socialism from the ground up, but I suppose this is a criticism of people who want to do that. Now that I'm rereading it it's clear that this was supposed to be a takedown of the left and not the right. Forgive me for not reading through one man's entire Twitter history.

[–] DivineChaos100@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago

of his position as of 2022-ish

The OG tweet is from march this year. Xcancel would show 2022 if it was that old.

[–] glans@hexbear.net 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I don't understand how this is racist or transphobic or what?

[–] Sulvor@hexbear.net 5 points 3 months ago (7 children)

The guy retweeting Elon is not being critical of his views. He agrees with everything Musk said and is simply adding that it’s a shame not everybody agrees. Luigi retweeted support for Elon’s tweet that is laden with dog whistles.

Asking about Luigi is tailism

Idk about transphobia. But he said some really weird shit about Japanese people which didn't even make any fucking sense, and pretty sure he used the same racist anti-immigration talking points that far-right people have being using since the 1940's.

Metric fuckload of problematic retweets, basically

[–] iie@hexbear.net 8 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (2 children)

I found Luigi's transphobic Richard Dawkins meme retweet. It also bags on DEI
