600 mass shootings a year. 20+ targeted white nationalist massacres have happened since 2016, including the largest mass casualty event in american history in vegas, and none of those people were terrorists.
Yet, every one of them had a manifesto, and it was covered in every new outlet. No terrorist.
Let’s call it like it is– this is nazi germany now. Brownshirts were deputized eight years ago and people only just made the connection when he pardoned them for trying to help his coup. (Something totally unprecedented and definitely not a direct parallel to weimar germany both allowing Hitler to create a gang of street fighters but also allowing them to do the putsch, and then giving Hitler a three year jail sentence, after which he reassembled the brown shirts and started the SA who then started killing Communists and burning down synagogues once Hitler won the chancellorship)
FWIW, the Vegas shooter did not have a manifesto and I don’t remember seeing any evidence that he was a white nationalist.
Thats crazy work. There was no motive determined bc he was just some psycho gambler with a gun obsession. Who does that sound like? A right winger.
Don’t ask me, go look at the FBI’s own statistics (if they still exist) on domestic terrorism and something insane like 90% of the violent offenses are committed by right wing terrorists. The murders, bombings, and assaults are all overwhelmingly right wing.
The conversation at hand is that terrorism is committed by conservatives who don’t care about the lives of people they don’t view as people. My bad, I forgot that one terrorist hadn’t written a manifesto.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not disagreeing with your general point that right-wing terrorism is ignored by the media. Just wanted to clarify that you said “every one of them had a manifesto” but the Vegas shooter did not. That said, a lot of the details of his life are things I associate with right-wingers: worked for Lockheed, owned rental properties, 2nd amendment, lots of cruises. Like you said, I would describe his motive as “disdain for other people/society” but for some reason that’s not considered terrorism.
^ Yes, this is what actual violence and terrorism looks like.
(Expropriating some cars is not even close.)
