For those who don’t find “far-right” to be an applicable descriptor with what is known currently, I acknowledge that the meme creator could have been more precise with their word choice. However, I feel the difference is academic:

We can replace “far right” with the easily verified “not leftist” without changing the meme whatsoever, primarily because the meme is about Nancy Mace and her mercurial, disingenuous opinion, not (directly) about the shooter.

Edit - I modified it, though I still find it to be a distinction without a difference - alt version for those who prefer (whoops missed one first time)

    I think the point is none of that actually matters. He’s simply not the evil liberal lefty they clearly hope for.

    I’m personally fairly positive he will turn out to be a far right goon, you have to be fairly far down the rabbit hole to be prepared to actually kill someone after all. But that’s not required for mega to have a breakdown about it. They needed him to be a left-wing extremist, and therefore an enemy that they can use to justify further crackdowns. The problem is it looks like he might be one of them.
