Ever since Tyler Robinson allegedly fatally shot conservative influencer Charlie Kirk, there has been debate over his ideological leanings. Conservatives were quick to label him a far-left extremist, while many Gen Z and Millennials have labeled him a “groyper.” Tyler Robinson will make his first court appearance today, where we may learn more about his motivations and political leanings.
What are Groypers?
Groypers are a far-right political group that believes the current Republican Party isn’t far-right enough. They were founded by Nick “Your body, our choice” Fuentes and have been critical of many modern conservative voices. According to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), Groypers are “alt-right, white nationalist, and Christian nationalist activists.” They promote antisemitic, racist, and homophobic views, though they argue they aren’t racist. Their views are simply necessary “to preserve white, European-American identity and culture.”
Now, I know I’ve only got 33 years of experience being Black, but that sounds pretty much like racism to me.
What Do Groypers Have To Do With Charlie Kirk and Tyler Robinson?
Groypers targeted many of Charlie Kirk’s speaking engagements in the 2019 “Groyper Wars.”
Have you ever learned something that makes you realize you’re not as chronically online as you thought you were?
The Groypers believed Kirk was too moderate and wasn’t “Pro-White” enough. I guess that’s what happens when you hang out with Candace Owens. There appears to have been a turf war between Charlie Kirk and Nick Fuentes over being the dominant voice of the modern conservative movement. Fuentes has denounced the killing of Charlie Kirk and told his followers, “To all of my followers, if you take up arms, I disavow you,” adding, “I disown you in the strongest possible terms.”
