People are comparing it to the killing of Charlie Kirk.

No. This is actually a lot worse. Several staffers of a political party were arrested for murder.

Just imagine what would happen if Democratic Party employees were arrested for killing Charlie Kirk

This Guy shouldn't have died and the people that killed him must be punished.

This said : he was part of a neo fascist group that commit violent acts (either racists or homophobic)... And as it was recently revealed : the so called feminist group is used to be a bait to attract anti fascist groups. Then their so so called security group just appear and beat the antifa.

Adding that nemesis (the so called feminist group) is nothing more than a fascist group that plays the victims while supporting racism and remigration. If nemesis was rallying it was because they wanted to disturb a political meeting, claiming that it was a islamic-lefty speech.

Again, this man should not have been beaten to death. The fact that it happened is not a surprise. This time it was him, regarding the alarming situation Lyon (the city where it happened) is, it could have been somebody else during the fight, or any other event.

I'm not legitimasing a murder in any way. I'm just trying to explain the situation that is more complicated than what most articles say. It is the results of more than a decade of inactions from governements that allowed the violence to grow. And now everybody seems surprise of the consequences.

Well, I would rather see him not be a fascist while alive, but since he refused to do that, I don't think this is a bad outcome.

I believe that justice should be the one punishing fascism. Antifas should stay self defence group. What they did here was murder. It gives right parties weapons against them.

In the case of Lyon, justice didn't do shit for more than 10 years, that's why antifas took over. I find this sad and dangerous.

Aside from the human drama, this death is useful to the right to play the victim and they cry that the lefties are the violents one. The liberals use this death to isolate the biggest left party in France.

As most of information channels and papers are owned by far right people, the murders from the far right are silenced (12 in the last 4 years ), and this one is used as a weapon against the left (some politicians went as far as accusing all the left parties to be a danger against democracy ).
