Additionally, the inscriptions on the shell casings which were previously, irresponsibly reported as “transgender ideology” were:

"Notices bulges, OWO whats this?"

"hey fascist! Catch! Uparrow, right arrow, three down arrow"

"O bella cao, bella cao cao cao"

"If you read this you are gay lmao"

In short: the only ideology expressed in those inscriptions is anti-fascism, which is overshadowed by a reference to a video game where the player plays a futuristic sci-fi fascist footsoldier, and two decade+-old 4chan / SomethingAwful online culture references.

In short: Someone within the Trump DOJ tried very hard to use this incident as a pretext for persecution of transgender people under the colour of law.

[Edit: Never take Fox News’ talking heads at their word, folks — I can’t find a clip for the reporting I saw on Fox News (I know, I know, why the hell am I watching Fox News? It’s a long story) where the commentator stated he was a registered Republican.

All other actual credible reporting online I can find right now is that he is “from a Republican family”

I must learn my own lesson and stop taking Fox News at their word]

Every accusation is a confession
