Fuentes himself was almost murdered last December by a guy who killed three other people and two dogs that day and ended up getting killed by the police. He went there specifically for Fuentes but I don’t think it was some foot soldier following orders. No idea if the guy was on the left but I kinda don’t really think he was.

You seem pretty confused about who made lemmy and why. The devs and the project itself have had explicit political stances from the beginning and that’s a great thing.
