    Those are actually symbols of Ukrainian freedom fighters, not Nazis.

    You are the richest person on the planet.

    You have the most civilian access to information.

    People will wait for you to make a comment on the situation so you have time to form a decent opinion.

    does this

        It's honestly fucked up how bad these losers are at being rich, look just go to a desert island and build a big fucking thing, and then build a big fucking house on top of the big fucking thing, then just live in the big fucking thing house and tell reporters to go fuck themselves.

        Honestly. It's like the last place I'd want to be and if I had other means to receive dopamine, I would not be on the internet nearly as much

    When I worked for a carnival, there was a guy who worked there who had Nazi tattoos.

    Now, when you read the words'Nazi Tattoos" I bet you pictured swastikas and SS symbols and Black Suns. He did have those. But when I say this guy had Nazi tattoos I mean he had portraits of high ranking Nazis tattooed into his skin. I don't know who they were, as I don't know my Nazis outside of Hitler, Goebbels, and Mengele. But I'm certain they were Nazis. Those ones were on his legs, though, so people didn't really notice them. All the tattoos meant he had to wear long sleeves all summer so at least he suffered for his hateful ink.

    Edit: Also nobody wanted to bunk with him so he had to live in a wooden box on a boat trailer for most of the time I was there.

    What are the chances that these recent attacks were motivated by an external party? Is it really all just stochastic violence? I know I sound like an Alex Jones guy right but I'm nervous that this latest round of attacks is the beginnings of something more organized. If I am just being ridiculous then I'd appreciate it if someone could gently point that out to me.

      I don't think they themselves are organized to that degree, but I'm fairly convinced the intelligence agencies are enacting a strategy of tension domestically.

      Every other shooting this point comes up in the Trueanon sub and I don't think anyone knows for certain. Last one there was a good site that was posted that detailed how a ridiculous amount of mass shooters were in contact with the FBI, where in one case there were literally two FBI agents in car behind the shooter taking pictures as it was about to happen:

      spoiler

      Several weeks before the 2015 attack, Simpson purportedly came back to the FBI’s attention for jihad-related online postings, prompting another round of monitoring and surveillance. During this period of renewed interest, a week and a half out from the attack, Simpson was put into contact with an FBI agent through his network of extremist friends online. In the course of one of their exchanges, when Simpson brought up the cartoon contest, the fed responded, “Tear up Texas,” with Simpson replying, “That goes without saying” — an apparent example of an FBI agent encouraging violence at an imminent public event, which was furthermore received positively by its recipient. It’s difficult to understand how the FBI could have allowed this attack to happen by mistake, given such an obvious telegraphing of intention. And it’s not like the pair fell off the FBI’s radar in the week and a half intervening between that exchange and the shooting — the Bureau installed a surveillance camera outside Simpson’s and Soofi’s apartment the day they left for Texas. But don’t worry, it gets worse.

      Incredibly, the FBI agent that told Simpson to “Tear up Texas” wasn’t just talking shit: He was also at the event….….in the car immediately behind Soofi and Simpson’s……………….taking cell phone photographs of the people that Soofi and Simpson were about to attack……………………..thirty seconds before the shooting. An image taken by the agent is reproduced below, screenshotted from the CBS documentary on the FBI ties to the attack. Sidebar: I couldn’t find a free version of the doc, so I just signed up for a Paramount+ trial and then cancelled before they charged me. Easy enough, and I recommend it if you’re interested in this insane case. Ponder why they deployed obvious CIA asset Anderson Cooper to discuss these events. Anyway, back to business, the photo the FBI agent snapped happens to include Bruce Joiner (left), the only man Simpson and Soofi injured. The fed, who remains unidentified, fled the scene immediately when shooting broke out, but he was detained at gunpoint by local police (as seen in the second photo below, also from the CBS documentary). When CBS asked the FBI for comment on these revelations, they responded, “There was no advance knowledge of a plot to attack the cartoon drawing contest in Garland, Texas.”

      On one hand all the miseries of capitalism and the horrors unique to america - e.g. literally no community available to practically anyone, suburbs, no safety net at all, and guns - I think are enough to explain it. On the other hand, this is the same country that has routinely funded death squads in the past and is behind a myriad of atrocities, so it really doesn't seem outside the realm of possibility.

      :blob-no: At the absolute least it was known / shown that the shooter had a Right Wing Death Squad patch on his tactical vest or whatever. The white South African billionaire criminal is just defending Nazis and he knows it.

      For me, it's not that he should have known for sure, it's that he should have just kept his dipshit mouth shut about it. As a multibillionaire he has the ability to hire a PI or maybe even directly call the police chief or some shit and then comment about it like a near-omniscient memelord ("using his powers for good" or something).

      Instead it's just an immediate dumbass comment to his millions of whatever pops into his head at that exact moment.
