  • The whole attack does just seem a little off. He planned for a year and wanted to “kill them all” and chose to use fire as a weapon? Not a car? Not a bomb? Not an illegally acquired gun?

    And his target is a kind of innocuous group who are kinda Zionist but not clearly so, who just happens to have an 88 year old Holocaust survivor among their number? These people may have even been publicly opposed to continued war.

    It just seems like a lot of time to plan an attack that wasn’t very effective against a group that doesn’t make a very effective statement, by a person almost tailor made to reinforce right-wing talking points. I dunno about active deal-making, but I could definitely believe he was targeted and groomed by someone intending to use him for political purposes.

    But he could also just be a moron who spent a year plotting a dumb attack.










  • The manliest thing to do is complain about how you’re not allowed to be a man because the left doesn’t have someone as manly as Steven Miller (??) for you to emulate.

    Manliness isn’t a course or a team and you don’t need other people to approve you being it. Have beliefs, stand up for people who are weaker than you, and build things to make the world a better place.

    Also, the largest leftist streamer (hasanabi) plays videogames, like anime boobs, and clearly works out constantly. Bill Burr is constantly going viral for telling assholes to shut the fuck up with a big cigar in his hand. And Tim Walz’s whole political schtick is being a solid, caring, coach figure. There are plenty a representations of stereotypically “manly” figures on the left. The type that’s not represented there is the toxic dudes complaining about how every problem in their life is the fault of women denying them their rightful place as the masters of society.
