FSU student who knew suspected shooter says he was removed from club for white supremacist views

Source: NBC News

FSU student Reid Seybold described locking down with classmates during the campus shooting, hiding under desks and hearing the door handle rattle. He texted loved ones goodbye, fearing for his life. Seybold later learned the suspected shooter was Phoenix Ikner, someone he knew from a political club at his former college, where Ikner was asked not to return due to white supremacist views.

It's not really a good discriptor. I think they are referring to the TSC Political Discourse forum. Pacifist Patriot Apr 2025 #11

Wake up, this is who these people are. keep your powder dry. It doesn't end here. Remember Charlie Manson wanted to start a civil war, to get the attention off his crazy ass. Check the story. Trump has been trying to do the same thing since he hooked up with who ever these motherfuckers in the shadows are. Russia is in our house.

And that name his folks gave him probably earned him heightened scrutiny from elementary school, onwards...

Did that club have a name? Did it include the word republican or maybe 'conservative'? Would be a good bet. Interesting that they didn't identify it.

It has been mentioned in some media reports. See my post here for more information.

It is not a right-wing group at all.

It is a forum for Tallahassee State College students interested in political science and international relations to discuss politics. It is most definitely NOT a far-right group, or even right-leaning for that matter. I know one of their members personally, Screen shots of their group texts were shared with me yesterday. He was ostracized for his extremist white supremacist pro-Trump beliefs. He's held them since high school. Media needs to lead with this, but sadly won't.
