Doubt. Doesn't include any of the statements authorities have quoted. They also mentioned the handwritten manifesto was 262 words.
Even if this isn't the manifesto, his family had money, this reads like it was written by a high schooler, and it was posted yesterday.

This does seem very amateurish (Gladiator, Greenday, "smile through the pain"). These are emo tropes. I'd be disappointed to know it's him.
You'd be disappointed if he isn't also a genius writer?
Not necessarily but basing an idealogy in fantasy (as he talks about the emperor being god in gladiator) neglects reality. Anger and whatever sense of righteousness you subscribe to should be based firmly in reality, otherwise you'll find you are acting on nothing but hypotheticals.
I don't see the issue in quoting works of fiction if you think they express something you're trying to say. People quote Shakespeare all the time to make a point but nobody cares because that's old and accepted. No I'm not saying Gladiator is on a level with Shakespeare but there's a weird imbalance in what you're allowed to quote in your argument and what not. If the imagery spoke to him, why not?
Point taken. I will admit I have been more critical given I don't believe this is real.
Otherwise the whole of marxism would be off limits
Did... Did you just gatekeep anger?
