“I know there has been speculation as well as to the writing on those casings, those bullet casings."

    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”

      “Rest now, my brother, we have the watch, and I’ll see you at Valhalla”

      Why is a Hindu telling a Christian that he’ll see him in Valhalla?

        Fascists of all stripes have a weakness for Norse mythology.

          Yes, they do, sadly. I’ve loved Norse mythology since I was a kid but now I can wear a tee shirt with a Norse reference on it without people thinking I’m a fascist. 😞

            Yeah I feel you. I’m fascinated with the early Indo-European past but so are heaps of fascists.

          Fun fact: christofascists are why most of Norse mythology is lost, everything that couldn’t be recast as part of the Christian world was violently suppressed

          Yeah, a weakness and no actual knowledge of Norse mythology. Some dumb fascists getting popped on a stage isn’t something Odin or Freyja gives a fuck about. They only get to Folkvangr or Valhalla if they die in combat. Most of these cowards will piss themselves if they ever see a battlefield.

      “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.

      Who is this trans-ideology ammunition manufacturer?

      Is trans ideology even a thing? I thought it was just people trying to live authentic lives?

        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.
