As I pointed out, I came here to be free to speak, not to earn tokens per se. That being the case I seek exactly conversation sparked by posts, and more than anything criticism that points out where I'm wrong. @sift666 helped refine my grasp of issues in comment here on this post, for example. It is only when I am made to understand I am wrong that I can change my mind and become right.
Don't hesitate to set me straight, ever, but don't expect me to just agree I was wrong because a claim of it is made. I want to be actually right, not just agreed with. I far prefer the former to the latter, in truth.
To my eyes, the voluminous detail consisting of his previous posts that link him and his radicalization to specific persons, institutions, and platforms remarkable for their dedication to free speech and debate, as I have just related regarding myself, and fact-based narrative, rather than the string tugging of emotions that is often employed - and is and will be regarding this event - to bring content consumers to agreement with particular positions.
It is a lot of the essential difference between the right and left wings of political thought, although not the typical right and left as used in actual political party affiliation. Both sides of the American political party (yeah, I meant that) are controlled by neocons/neoliberals that differ only in rhetoric. The actual policies they effect are substantially identical, and amount to waging war for profiteering defense industries.
I was particularly struck by his comment regarding Candace Owens, because he literally said 'She did it. She's the one that radicalized me and drove me to murder these Muslims.' Having so prepared before the attack the posts, comments, and literature that would inundate the media, he could not have been unaware of the impact that statement would have on Owens.
I'll be surprised if she has a Twitter, Fakebook, or other mainline social media account very soon, or isn't herself targeted for violence. He all but signed her death warrant, and had to know he was.
If he'd been actually intent on bodies simply to reduce the Muslim population, none of that would have been necessary. If he'd wanted to gain recruits to his cause, he'd have been better served by larping as a leftist, to drive that anger at that quarter. Since his psyop technique lends itself to the enemedia mechanisms used to shame and guilt people and nations into giving up their arms and ability to speak freely, I think it's intended to do exactly that.
