He saw the problem but had no idea what to do for solutions and the ones society was feeding him (he didn't come up with that on his own) are bullshit. But society won't tell you about Baudrillard.

This is something people need to get better at seeing. If we want to reach these people we need to understand what's happening when they say things like this. We also, ourselves, need to understand this stuff so we can speak intelligently about it. You know the media and powers that be never will.

You're right, this is very destructive.

Who knows? But they can look like they're doing something, at least.

Honestly this is very clarifying and we should be jumping on this as a tool to further understanding of our cause. Not because the shooter was one of ours but because support for him is common ground we can use to talk to everyone who we want to talk to.

I think, taking the leaked manifesto as legit here, the guy was aware of this. One of the lines basically says "it seems obvious we need to take matters into our own hands and I guess I have to be the first to do it".

That said, i think this works because it's not just propaganda of the deed. These masters of the world are still only human. They have manipulated the world so they get to decide what happens to who, when, and accept no input from anyone else. Well, when they use that power to cause millions of excess deaths it's no surprise their victims will (eventually, after much patience) simply step outside the social contract to deal with them.

Maybe interpol doesn't know China is straight up kidnapping people of the street in foreign (non-China) countries? Maybe they want to do something about that?

No?

Okay, then. Of course they're prioritizing someone downloading some jpgs, why would i think differently?

The US is too good at destroying people's reputation, yeah. This guy is gonna get vilified hard (whether he did it or not).

But if also a cornerstone. (For better and worse--it got and still gets used to excuse people who commit hate crimes, for example.)

It is actually legal. It's built directly from the laws and kind of a necessary component if you want jury trials to actually work and not just be a kangaroo court. People just don't like it.

Critically, the elites want this "solved" asap.

Russia fucking sucks but this, at least, is true. (The West sucks too, don't get me wrong. I ain't going to Russia but i will use their search engine.)

It is 100%. Max Stirner talked about that in the 1800s.
