Title seems mildly disingenuous. Guy clearly was quite mentally unwell, beyond perceived parallels in political degeneracy. The reality is, what he ranted about seems like paranoid delusion 101.
But what do I know.
Dude clearly has delusions of grandeur, but the fuel being fed into that is far right ideology. In a sense, he just acted on what right wing rhetoric says is the ideal.
Too far gone to organize, sure, but this is exactly the guy wingnuts and feds (
) love to wind up. This is who the whole strategy of stochastic terrorism is aimed at.
They celebrate teenagers going on mass shootings killing children and old people going shopping or Muslims praying. This is an extension of that depravity. It may not advance their agenda, but random violence is acceptable to them as a compromise.
It's funny that you mention the siege nerds. After a good chunk of them got arrested or killed, some of the main guys decided to just silently drop all the satanic stuff and move on to MMA camps lol
I think this post is missing the point, and is also potentially insensitive to the family. That's all.
i'm going to say the odds his family sees this post on HexBear is quite low. Almost non-existent.
If empathy ceases once you're out of sight, what is it?
which part is insensitive? the "lunatic" part?
Yeah, just seemed unnecessary. Words like that when directed towards people with mental illness is problematic.
There's no doubt what he did is shocking and devastating, but perpetuating loaded, stigmatized language in relation to mental illness is part of the equation when it comes to treatment avoidance.
This level of psychosis is so far removed from common onsets of mental illness that it is a diservice to associate this person with mental illness. The rate of people with psychotic episodes is 60x less than the rate of people with depression. Of the psychosis group only a fraction of that group expresses their psychosis through violence. Fuck this guy and the rhetoric surrounding this as a mental health failing. He is a monster and an asshole. Stuff like this being associated with mental health only serves to stoke reinstitutionalization and worsen stigma.
Shut the fuck up liberal
Conservative media has fully integrated into trying to get mentally unwell people do do their terrorist work like this. Create a mass network of "respected" hyperbolic new stations that touch onto psycho-fascist conspiracy theories and justifications for violence but stop just short of telling people do this stuff. Have these ideas further spread and explicitly stated by "individuals" on the internet: smaller conservative/billionaire funded podcasts, YouTube channels, web forums, FB pages, etc. Keep repeating these points over and over until a person who's not tied to society enough to do it (i.e. the extremely mentally unwell, lonely boomer men whose families have left them, etc.). Use that violence to feed back into the fascist narrative pushed by the initial big news media companies that society is collapsing due to "terrorist violence" that they then claim is left-wing or just blamed specifically on mental health (which also feeds into massive fascist desire to purge anyone with psychological issues) and pretend it's not conserva-fascist at all.
In short, you are a liberal dipshit. This exact scenario has happened dozens of times now.
I think this video about pewdiepie of all things by NonCompete is a pretty good look into stochastic terrorism.
It's about the whole "Subscribe to Pewdiepie" thing and his nazi jokes over the years contributing to the Christchurch mosque shooting
Sure he ought to be at the Nuremburg Trials II: For Real This Time We Are Not Kidding, but I can't bring myself to watch a video about a shooting in the context of a youtuber's "why this other content creator is a psychopath ☝️🤓" documentary
Eh it's not really that. Using his name was more of a clickbait to get more views.
It's just about stochastic terrorism in general.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
brown person beheads someone: this proves that all brown people are inherently barbaric
white person beheads someone: that person was just mentally ill
Where did you discern from my comment that this is my stance, or were you already foaming before you got here?
wasn't even replying to you but ok
Where's the lie? He's deep into MAGA conspiracies, he's clearly a lunatic, and he beheaded his own father. Political paranoia seems to be the catalyst for transforming his mental illness into extreme violence. Not coincidentally, many (in fact the vast majority) of mass shooters are consumers of fascist ideology, even if some are "ironic". Telling a mentally unwell person their country is at war with a pervasive, satanic enemy is NOT good for their well-being
It's more that one of the two political parties in the country lines up perfectly with the beliefs of deeply unwell people with paranoid delusions.
If he hadn't said this stuff while holding his father's severed head it would not be that far off from the warm up acts at a trump rally.
i think both of the parties offer some pretty good fodder for paranoia. you see nancy pelosi saying that the chinese and the russians are funding protestors?
Yea but she didn't follow that up by saying so we need to kill all the protesters because they're coming to rape your family.
Democrats are absolutely feeding peoples paranoid deluisons, just not their violent paranoid delusions.
Hell anytime somebody breaks a window the entire party comes out to denounce it.
Meanwhile everytime a right wing psycho murders people they get a speaking gig on fox.
Democrats prefer their violence structural
Absolutely don't get me wrong I'm normt defending democrats. To anybody outside the country itnwoukd seem insane to suggest democrats are less violent but like you said their violence is institutionalized.
But libs clutch their pearls if you suggest punching a nazi. Meanwhile there's trucks driving around with bumper stickers that say "kill your local pedophile" and "Democrat = pedophile" on the same vehicle.
Republicans are knowingly encouraging random acts of violence against anybody that disagrees with them. Like it's a really obvious and ongoing tactic. Liberals wouldn't lift a finger to prevent my death but at least they don't regularly publicly fantasize about violently murdering me and my whole family in extra judicial killings.
Yea I would say the democrats side wants the empire to run efficiently and will make any compromise for that to happen, whilethe other side thinks they need to wipe out half the population for the nation to run efficiently.
Liberals do regularly publicly fantasize about violently murdering the civilian populations of official state enemies.
Nah it's spot on. He's a right ring nut job and they are mentally unwell in a way that makes liberals palpable.
More and more people will have a similar paranoia and delusion until half the country is like this. This is what capitalism and fascism do to people. Mental health doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Inhumane and alienated conditions lead to inhumane and alien people.
This is the standard MAGA rhetoric. You should’ve seen thedonald’s independent website during the days leading up to the 2020 election as well as Jan 6.
lmao okay
