          HS friend says he was the only leftist in his family. Family says he talked about LW activism. He was a member of the DSA. He was active in multiple antifa discord servers, including one where he planned the shooting. Let me know when there’s enough to call him non-Republican.

              Here’s the HS friend story, but the friend walked it back later in the updated guardian story. https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/4340082/posts

              DSA is disinfo using similar looking person but it’s not getting community noted at present.

              The discord stuff is from the pressers, but discord are also disputing that the messages were on discord, though they’ve confirmed the account.
