The shooter was a fan of alleged Nazi sympathizer. Brandon Herrera who is a “gun” influencer and congressional candidate from San Antonio. Said he thought Herrera should be president.

I did not have trans Nazi on my bingo card.

This recent school shooting and the Covenant school shooting are nearly identical. 

Yes, mass murder of children is pretty bad, and they both have the same motivation, target, and psychological problems. 

Pretty simple pattern to notice.

Maybe quit torturing these people psychologically and/or physically all the damn time, and their preponderance for mental illness will diminish to that of overall society, as will their suicide rate and I guess mass murder rate though that one is such a small sample size as to still be noise.

On the second day of his second term, Trump took steps to close the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention. Somebody in the press should be brave enough to ask him why.

I feel like 99% of pharmaceutical ads tell you suicidal thoughts are a side effect, combined with people who are already undergoing a mental illness masked as freedom probably isn't a recipe for good times.

the only time the right cares about little nazi fucks shooting people is when the little nazi fuck is also trans

No, see, it did it because it was trans.  Like Stalin killing all those millions of people because he was atheist.

We can't get rid of guns because of the 2nd Amendment.  Everybody knows the Constitution can't be changed.  So, we're just gonna have to ban trans people.  And atheists, too.

In the meantime, everybody should buy more guns to protect themselves during this trying time.

ChatGPT can translate phonetic English written in Cyrillic into readable English (I tried it, it works). Someone did it on X with the alleged manifesto. If accurate this person has been very twisted for a long time, and seems to have been mostly inspired by other mass shootings.

Which of the above groups have real cause to worry that someone wishes them harm? 

Which of the above groups are threats to the republic?

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I actually watched his manifesto video. The guy was apparently trans, wanted to kill trump, was obsessed with guns, obsessed with mass shooters, praised far-right politician Brandon Herrera, and had multiple anti-Semitic and racist things written on his weapons and cartridges, including “6 million wasn’t enough”. Definitely an ideological wild card. Above all you could tell he was an edgelord that viewed himself as really cool and funny.

Oh, no worries.  They'll come through with the standard Christian absolution/washing-their-hands of any consequences:
"God just decided he needed another angel up there with him."  
and/or
"It was God's will."

I agree. Although you would think if God needed more angels there would be a better way to call them home other than being torn to pieces by an automatic weapon…

Who are you to question the miraculous and glorious ways of our Fundagelical Christian God?  Maybe it's easier to get them through the pearly gates when they're in smaller pieces.  Maybe it gives God more pieces to hug in his warm, fatherly embrace.

One could argue it is dead saint aesthetics.

Especially since hating mayo on burgers is the mathematically correct opinion.

I'm bi-curious about condiments on burgers

As I've gotten older, I've found myself a lot more tolerant of different approaches to burger condiments.

I'm all about a classic American approach of mustard and a bit of mayo.  I also like a smashburger with burger sauce.  I also like a burger with bbq sauce, jalapenos, and cheddar.  Mayo and green chiles.  All kinds of things.  Eat what you like.  I think that as a society, we'd all get along better if we just let people be, and just eat the burgers they want.

I have posted in another thread about how I've known several kids who have come out as trans to their parents.  While it's their journey to determine if their gender dysphoria is legitimate or not, I personally think they will come to discover they are not, knowing them as I do.  I also posted about where I see these kids getting the idea that they are trans.  All of them started spending an inordinate amount of time online during covid lockdowns, on video game servers, on discord, etc... and never returned to "real life" from before the lock downs.  They became convinced they were trans after interfacing with online communities where their "friends" (online only, never met in real life) are trans, and they are kind of following an online herd.

It has made me wonder if all these online spaces where this is prevalent are either A) refuges where the anonymity of the internet provides people with a safe space to question themselves with others who are also questioning themselves or B) essentially traps set to ensnare troubled teens into a sense of gender dysphoria so as to generate more societal discord.  Like, how do we know that these online "friends" aren't a Russian AI chatbot?  Or just some person getting funded by a group who benefits from our societal discord to essentially "recruit" troubled teens into the front lines of the culture wars?  We don't.  All we can really say is that there are a whole lot of people/groups inside and outside of this country that would have no moral or ethical qualms about funding/facilitating such an operation.  That this trans person was obsessed with guns, mass shooters, far-right politicians, anti-semitism and was stenciling Russian messages on their weaponry makes me wonder even more.

But, the most likely scenario is that these kids are troubled, either from a childhood interrupted by covid or other reasons, and these underlying issues make them want to "escape" the real world for a virtual one.  They then wander into an online environment where being trans is trendy.  These communities provide them with connection and acceptance, and they start to mimic their peers as teens are wont to do.  These peers just happen to be online and trans.  Voila, you now have a teen with gender dysphoria on your hands.  Their parents are typically blindsided when the teen finally comes out.  If they are the type tuned into the conservative infosphere, predigested answers as to how and why their kid is trans are readily available.  It's the liberals, the groomers at the public school, the democrats, Hollywood, and so on.

It's a goddam shame our kids are a fucking political football.  Just leave them alone to figure out who the fuck they are.

I don't think it's a malevolent outside force building chatrooms and online spaces to transmute children into different genders to troll parents.

That's fucking ridiculous.

 

I think the social destruction of third spaces (and places in general to just exist without work) is what's driving people into the conspiracy scenario you frame it as. There's nowhere to hang out that ISN'T online for many kids.

I agree that this is the most likely scenario - but one step further, kids like to try things on. They'll proclaim that pizza is their favorite food one day, and be mad that they got pizza the next. I think much of the energy from children wrt/ "I'm trans!" is much the same, only adults are taking them seriously rather than as a object of play that it is.

Isn't it also ridiculous that Haitians are eating pets en masse in Ohio?  That Jade Helm was an attempt by the federal government to subjugate red states?  That the Clintons murdered everyone they did business with?  That public schools are installing litter boxes to accommodate furries?  That Los Angeles and DC are undergoing unprecedented crime so as to warrant occupation by federal forces?

There are malevolent forces instilling ideas in the populace to engineer social discord literally all. the. time.  Where would they stop?  What line is a line uncrossable?  The only thing that would prevent them from not just exploiting gender dysphoria but engineering it is the means to engineer it.  Knowing what is possible with AI at scale, I am not sure those means don't exist.

We are living in a multi-tentacled psyop to upend the United States that has been engineered by malevolent forces from both inside and outside the country.  Feel free to make your arguments that this isn't the case, I will certainly consider them.

My brother’s oldest is gender dysphoric, and their experience has expanded my understanding of the dynamic. Not the causation, but the individual experience and their choices. Previously, I was aware of kids who, from their earliest age, were consistent, persistent, and emphatic about being a gender different from their biological one. And it makes sense to me that those parents sought to do whatever they could to support their child’s perceived gender, including hormone therapy. So, the low key conversations and pronoun adjustments going on in our extended family, which continue to evolve, anre educational, and I often fail to internalize the nuances of what is happening.

My brother’s kid is not an online social media type. They are a bookworm, a model maker, a computer builder, and a sports enthusiast, mostly quiet, reserved and aware. Brother and SiL watch and support, but stay out of their child’s decision making process.

Brother felt gut punched by the identity, however troubled, of the shooter. Said it is more gasoline to the fire that threaten’s has child’s well being. He is right.
