In reply to the discussion: Nick Fuentes, The Groypers, and Charlie Kirk - Now It Makes Sense [View all]Celerity
(51,898 posts)20. 'Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao' (another message on a Robinson shell casing) is definitely anti-fascist
It is from a well known Italian anti-fascist song.
"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 (Traki partizanski pevski zbor / Coro partigiano Triestino).

Yep ⬆️ - law enforcement is either too old to understand the engravings or are straight out lying about their meaning

Exactly!!! I really don't know what to think, but calling someone/thing "fascist" doesn't mean anything.

I guess Kirk had a falling out with Groyper founder Fuentes and his anti semitism didn't jive with Kirk's ...

Nick Fuentes basically admitted on Twitter last night that Charlie Kirk's shooter was a Groyper.

Fuentes made those statements on his podcast last night. Here's video of him saying it.

If the shooter was linked to Fuentes, you can bet he'll be brought in for questioning.

I actually was predicting this yesterday on FB that another wing nut shot him over doctrinal differences.

I don't trust anything from Musk's AI tool Grok, but I thought this was interesting.

This is speculation. Don Lemon said it without any attribution. He has been known to say things
