Motive

I have provided a clear source for the fact that the motive is currently not fully known. Dingus1233 (talk) 18:54, 15 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

We know the suspect was a member of a liberal party. We know it's a bad look for liberals, so Wiki will probably look to scrub that. 70.53.153.52 (talk) 20:13, 15 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

There is nothing about him being member of liberal party. Also, which liberal party? The only affiliation We know of are from his book Efafa, where he clearly supports Kotleba and his party. Which is far-right party. Exander77 (talk) 20:48, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Euronews reports that the shooter was associated with a pro-Russian militia, Slovenskí Branci, and his writing was hostile to immigration and Roma. [1] Fences&Windows 20:28, 15 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
We must remember Wikipedia's rule of 'innocent until proven guilty.' Therefore, we cannot publicize any political motives without being one hundred percent sure of who the exact shooter was. Dingus1233 (talk) 20:36, 15 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
So, a pro-Russian and anti-immigration militant shooting a pro-Russian and anti-immigration PM. Makes sense. 70.53.153.52 (talk) 20:53, 15 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Fico ran on a Pro-Russian Pro-Slovak campaign that got him votes from SNS. How much this was acted on is a different story. The media completely blew him out of proportions comparing him to Orban when he is just another populist. At the end of the day we do not know the motive for sure yet so I believe we should wait till there is more information. protoj (talk) 12:23, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

These reports trace back to a journalist named Panyi. Ukrainian media sources have widely circulated his post from the X/Twitter platform here: https://twitter.com/panyiszabolcs
The validity of the image is disputed here: https://x.com/by_their_deeds/status/1791037083924013487
The evidence of his involvement with this group is this picture from a post on Facebook. I've confirmed that this image is either altered or computer generated using the tool here: https://www.fakeimagedetector.com/#google_vignette
I propose removing reference to the background of the shooter and freezing this article until an investigation is conducted and actual evidence is presented. The subject is heavily propagandized by both pro-Russian and pro-Ukrainian circles. Debiant (talk) 11:32, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Article is clearly attempting to paint the suspect as a pro-russian, pro-putin assassin - he is not

edit

He was close to the leftish opposition party Progressive Slovakia, and met with Dennik editor Martin Šimečka (head of the Slovakian branch of the Soros-network) several times

Shooter held pro-ukrainian views. He already attended protests, where he was shouting the well-known nazi slogan "Slava Ukraini" and "Enough of Fico". Stop the spread of lies in the article that he wa pro-russian. 85.67.101.104 (talk) 11:44, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

You’re welcome to create a Wikipedia account and add reliably-sourced information to the article of your own. The section that reports pro-Russian activity by the suspect is sourced from Novinky.cz, which appears to be well written, including pictures and references to facebook posts by Cintula.

How is "Za dom spremni!" is a nazi slogan? It just means "for the homeland".
How is "alles für deutchland" is a nazi slogan? It just means " everything for Germany". 85.67.101.104 (talk) 14:20, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
You did not even answer their question. It is a slogan that has been used even before Putin suddenly said it was Neo-Nazi, clearly it is you who is having a serious POV issue. Borgenland (talk) 14:30, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
It wasnt Putin who said it was neo-nazi, it was considered a nazi slogan well before Putin. Learn some History and not from the mainstream media or what you call it on Wikipedia - reliable source :D 85.67.101.104 (talk) 14:47, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
from your sacred Wikipedia : "In April 1941 in German-occupied Kraków, the younger part of the OUN seceded and formed its own organisation, called the OUN-B after its leader Stepan Bandera.

Which was first used before the war and remained used under the Putin-friendly Yanukovych administration, and which is contradicted again in the article as Soviet propaganda. What poor WP:CHERRYPICKING skills on your part. Borgenland (talk) 16:00, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Suspect -- maybe NPOV

edit

The section depicts him as pro-Russian. The problem is that later he seemed to change his mind and openly supported current prezident Čaputová (ally of pro-Western opposition) and he rejected Russian agression in Ukraine. (See this Reddit post.) And SME spotted him on pictures from protests against controversial government reforms organized by pro-Western opposition. --Pan Někdo (talk) 13:19, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

As the man changed his political views through the years, whould be good to state the date of each act/opinion/statement. So as it's now seem very confusing.46.222.205.14 (talk) 20:14, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
It is quite unclear if he did change political views. Sounds more like he became more radicalized.
From various sources, it seems that dismantling public media was the last straw for him. It seems to me he was nationalist, and he became convinced Fico is going against Slovakia's best interest...
This does not require change of political views. Exander77 (talk) 20:56, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
I agree with one of the comments that adding information about the suspect's political leanings should be included so long as the information is properly sourced from reliable sources. Jurisdicta (talk) 06:25, 17 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
