It sounds like KLXVER, turned out right afterall.
So if you banned him, because you thought the killer was right-wing.
You should unban and apologies to him imo.

And yes, it does feel like the mods are all very left leaning, and likely would shut down any debate that they didn't favor, while the opposite likely isn't true.

also I feel like I have voiced this before..
Mods are so darn quick to ban anyone and everyone.... in the pretense of a "safe space", but its kills decussions and opnions and turns the place into a echo chamber. Also, we have so few members as is, its killing the site.

We don't ban people because of their claims.
Klxver was banned for being a jerk to a user for basically no reason.  

We didn't even ban him for calling the mods "fucking idiots", but because he was saying stuff like that to other users.

Wait what?

He had "fascist catch" itched into a bullet.
He had the Antifa catch phrase/song slogan of theirs "Bella Ciao"
He had "Notices buldge" catfishing meme thingy.

That stuff is "Transgender, Antifascist Ideology" stuff... not far right.

He was messed up because his family is right leaning, but he himself was gay and in a relationship with a transgender partner.

its why he shot him, when he talked about transgender and violence as well. 
That moment was picked on purpose.

^ this is/was his romantic partner he was living with.
A transgender man.

I'm not really sure where the facts line up on this.

I saw someone else claim that he actually lived at home. 

I need to see better proof that he had a trans partner, because a lot of these stories are changing every other day.  

Bella ciao isn't particularly meaningful. It's not some common antifa catch phrase. It's also used by right wing groypers.

Except we're really not.  

One of the two recent examples of us banning discussion, not even a person - was a thread from almost 3 years ago. 

And the discussion wasn't even banned, we were largely just being cautious about it generating conflict.
