It is from a well known Italian anti-fascist song.

Bella ciao

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bella_ciao

"Bella ciao" (Italian pronunciation: [ˈbɛlla ˈtʃaːo]) is an Italian song dedicated to the partisans of the Italian resistance, who fought against the occupying troops of Nazi Germany and the collaborationist Fascist forces during the liberation of Italy.

"Bella Ciao" (Goodbye, Beautiful) is an Italian workers' song that gained popularity for association with the Anti-Fascist partisans of the Committee for National Liberation (Comitato di Liberazione Nazionale, CLN). It was first written in the late 1800s and sung by striking farmers in Northern Italy, but modern lyrics dedicated to the Partisans became popular in the 20th century, effectively transforming it into an anti-fascist anthem, even if it does not find its actual roots in the Italian Civil War. These days it is one of the most popular anti-fascist songs of all time, if not the most popular. Performed here by my favourite choir, the Trieste Partisan Choir (Tržaški partizanski pevski zbor / Coro partigiano Triestino).

'Bella Ciao' has been featured in several video games. sop Friday #21

none of that ties it to the RW and/or the Groypers Celerity Friday #23

The song has become a part of gaming culture. Apparently, the shooter was both a Groyper and a gamer. sop Friday #25
