You seem to have a rather binary world view. The world is not black and white; anybody who fails to move past such a juvenile perspective is part of the problem.
In other words, your over simplification is not cute, and is also wrong.
The kid reportedly left a bullet casing with “Hey fascist! Catch!” engraved on it, and he killed a fascist.
I don’t really know what kind of nuance you want me to display here. It’s pretty black and white: the kid was 200% antifa and the checklist is factually wrong.
I can’t make anything of it because some Mormons are more extreme right wing than the Republican party, and there’s a possibility he was attacking from that angle.
The thing is though, I’ve never met a Mormon more extreme than that hateful kid Charlie Kirk. He wasn’t a republican, he was a full-on MAGA of the most extreme right-wing variety, so I can’t really conceive of anybody even more extreme than him who might think he didn’t go far enough to the right enough to gun him down.
But hey, anything is possible in this nauseating world of extremist morons I guess…
Look up (or don’t) Groypers and Nick Fuentes. Believe it or not there was some controversy over how Kirk messaged the Epstein Files that Fuentes and his followers are drumming up. Like Flickerman posted in another comment in this post, apparently they are trying to co-opt the use of the song Bella Ciao like the right does with left-wing things that get popular. One of the bullets had that etched in it. I hadn’t heard of any of this either before today, but it is not at all out of character for fascists to infight.
Yep, and it all adds up to we can’t really say one way or the other based on vague memelord statements which may or may not actually be real anyway. After it’s become increasingly clear that Luigi is quite likely a patsy who had stuff planted on him, I have a hard time trusting that this is really the guy anyway or trusting any statements the media makes on him until we know more through things like court discovery.
If you go even further right than Charlie Kirk, they end up flipping from “yay Israel, help bring about the Book of Revelations and end the world” to “boo Israel, we hate Jews”, so as hard as it may be to believe, there is actually room for him to get hated from his right.

That’s a Helldivers 2 reference actually, because right after that quote is a code for a bomb drop from the game.
Helldivers 2 is a Starship Troopers style universe where clearly you work for the bad guys and the bad guys call their enemies fascists.
So it’s not clearly anti-fascist as much as it is internet edgelord.
Okay, I admit I’m ignorant of modern internet and gaming lore.
But what do you make of the fact that he shot a fucking fascist? That’s not a video game reference now, is it?

That’s true. I lived in Utah, so I know.

The quote is not from the game though. Just the bomb drop code.
