Utah governor Cox claimed that the shooting was "political", but it looks like another Gen Z'er trying to become famous [View all]

Besides the fact that Robinson has a RW upbringing and connections to RW politics, the messages on the bullets are being described as representing "meme culture."

The governor said that notices bulge OWO 'what's this?' was engraved on one of the bullets. That's related to memes and furry culture.

notices bulge OWO 'what's this?': "Parody of furry/roleplay memes; sexual innuendo; trolling or mocking Originated in 2013 in furry/anime online subcultures and spread as a copypasta"

There were also some arrows inscribed. They are a reference to a game called Helldivers 2.

Reddit is describing Robinson as "terminally online."

It's also pathetic that the Utah governor told people to get off the internet and "touch grass." Apparently, he also needs to get off of the internet.
