Geraldo Rivera has surfaced to give his take on the Charlie Kirk assassination, and you’re going to want to grab some popcorn.
Following the fatal shooting of Kirk at an event in Utah, social media was quick to place blame on radical political rhetoric and leftist hatred of his conservative message. Even before a suspect was apprehended by authorities, people were predicting that he had been influenced by far-left ideology, which has long deemed anyone associated with the right as “Nazis” and “fascists.”
Rivera, however, believes that another source is responsible for suspect Tyler Robinson’s alleged crime.
Whether Tyler Robinson faces a firing squad in Utah for the murder of Charlie Kirk, my guess is the accused killer will probably have been motivated more by Halo and similar fantasy role-play than by substantive political discord. The game features Grunts vs Elites. I’m guessing…

“Whether Tyler Robinson faces a firing squad in Utah for the murder of Charlie Kirk, my guess is the accused killer will probably have been motivated more by Halo and similar fantasy role-play than by substantive political discord. The game features Grunts vs Elites. I’m guessing nobody wants to be an elite,” he wrote on X.
It didn’t take long for X users to jump all over his post:

This is like blaming Yoshi Story for 9/11.

Good points. And no one talks about how many lives have been lost due to *that* ending of Battlestar Galactica

I’m not mad because this is genuinely the funniest tweet I’ve read in ages, if you know the Halo plot.

Atrocious and disconnected boomer take. You really can’t hate the legacy media enough

Geraldo, you’re dead wrong.
Tell me you’ve never played or even watched someone play Halo, without telling me you’ve never played or watched someone play Halo.
I’ve played all the Halo games. I played them years ago. No one, No one at all, is being radicalized by Halo.
It’s… pic.twitter.com/AkhxVTfRz0

A post so senile it causes the reader to hallucinate the scent of denture adhesive breath and sound of daytime gameshows blasting from a phantom TV in an empty room littered with dated medication trays.
