There’s a picture of him holding a McD happy meal?? He had the gun and manifesto just laying there in his backpack? You f’ing kidding??

Some elite fucks used an advanced AI search algorithm to search a bunch of people who vaguely looked like him. Input term search for social media and ‘reviews’ to further narrow down until you find someone who has a few tweets and posts that the media can point to say “yup hey look, he liked Kzynski’s manifesto on goodreads…got the guy!”. Plant evidence, and you got your scapegoat.

This poor kids’ life is ruined. And he will probably be threatened if he doesn’t plead guilty and waive jury trial. He’ll get a visit from the MIB threatening to skin his family alive in front of him if he doesn’t play along.

Reading these fantasy takes is exhausting. It's hard to want to be a part of a community that supports this guy by gaslighting everyone, saying things like "it's not the same guy in the four photos!" Just hundreds of people all convinced they can secure this guys freedom by acting dumb and face blind- you've created a whole fictional scenario here that's just unbelievable and unrealistic.

If he didn't want to get caught he shouldn't have left DNA all over, shouldn't have taken off his mask, shouldn't be carrying the murder weapon days later... He could have helped himself but instead there's an army of idiots who are probably just creating this fan fiction to impress their peers. It's very childish though. This guy tried to do something which is commendable, or maybe he's just mentally ill, but I'm just tired of reading all this nonsense. Who are you signalling to?
