"white genocide" conspiracy theory or statistical fact? by Wtxtiger
The future of the human race is bleak. Very bleak. Almost every great discovery that has boosted mankind has been made by the white race. Once the white race is gone, the dark age of man will arrive again.

His criminal psychopathy caused this. His spiritual bankruptcy. His lack of empathy. A guy with that psychological profile can find many philosophies to latch on to that gives him the justification he needs to destroy The Other. Right ? It’s not that he’s for something, it’s that he has a grievance that he believes is not resolvable within the political system. The White Nationalism Movement , like all Identity Politics subsets, undoubtedly has a lot of Bros like this.
When you're in a group that sews the seeds of hatred and fosters a lack of empathy, you're going to encourage some people who already have problems. I agree that the group itself is not at fault in the sense that they did not take the direct action but typically when bad dogs start packing up together, bad things happen.
A lot of white nationalists aren't honest with themselves but cheered this on. Hell, you can even see that on this board. He felt like he was doing something good for the group. Misguided, yes but when the hatred is encourage bad things happen

I don’t disagree with that as a broad statement but as many here are correctly saying, he is CLEARLY trolling different camps of our Western Culture Wars for effect. Which is why you and I should stand down.

I agree, to a point, I suppose.
But the perceived threat from the "other" identities is wildly exaggerated or non-existent (in many cases for political advantage).
The straight white male is far from an endangered species,

The political motivations of mass shooters are always fair game . We SHOULD discuss the why of these things . In this particular case though, It’s obvious we are getting a very high- level orchestrated troll job.

I am so proud to have been born in America - and enjoy a >80% lineage that came to this land in the 1600s. My latest possible 'immigrant' ancestor came to America in 1830. I actually have real Native American ancestors, dating back to early 1600s.
But never in my life have I been taught that 'white people,' as a group, are better than 'others,' as a group. I have always made decisions and opinions based on an individual's actions - and that includes the groups that they decide to associate yourself with.
If you voluntarily join a group that says skin color is the primary quality that must be considered, then I judge your decision to be part of THAT group to be stupid, and will endeavor to have noting more to do with you - except make fun of your ignorance and moral failure.
How can anyone downvote that?

What reasons did the individual give for his actions?
