It's just speculation. No real motive has been determined. https://www.latimes.com/world-nation/story/2025-09-12/what-we-know-about-the-suspected-killer-of-charlie-kirk

LA Times wrote this less than 15 minutes ago:

Investigators are still looking through evidence and trying to determine a motive in the slaying.

The only things in writing are the words etched into the bullets, and those are mixed. He wrote an anti-fascist statement on a bullet casing and other text on others, but nothing to indicate he had liberal or conservative ideologies. If anything, he appeared to be mostly mad at the whole system.

No, he wrote Helldiver's 2 and groyper memes.

Hey, fascist! Catch! ↑ → ↓↓↓

Is for this: https://helldivers.wiki.gg/wiki/Eagle_500kg_Bomb

How do you get more explicitly anti-fascist than 'Hey fascist catch (a bomb)' and bella ciao?

"Notices bulges OwO what's this?" is used within the groypers to make fun of furries, as well as when they are (ugh I hate that I'm about to say this word) "transvestigating", which is when they "investigate" whether someone is trans or not. Also see "If you read this, you are gay LMAO"

Bella ciao is also used ironically within the groypers.

If it was the only thing there... Sure. Its not though, its one of several things, which all have one very specific context - groypers.

Context is always important.

Edit: Forgot to add - with Helldivers 2, the joke is you've got fascists dropping bombs while saying they are dropping bombs on fascists. Again, a meme reference for groypers.
