re: This X Account's One and Only Post Named the Shooter 3 Years Ago

Yeah, also worth noting that handle looks like a pretty standard auto-gen account. It could be a bot, could be a burner, could be nothing, point being there’s a lot of boring ways to get a one-off name post before we jump to anything exotic.

That's not how probabilities work. It's how loony conspiracy theorists *think* probabilities work.

You can calculate odds for any frickin thing you want. And yes, those are the odds of such an event happening.

I have no idea why people are trying to, what, explain this away as something that isn't odd? I didn't even make any claims here in the OP. Just pointed out something that is super frickin strange regarding the attempted assassination of the POTUS. Because, well, it is super frickin strange and I thought people might want to discuss it. The rush of some people to come in and make retarded posts like the one I just quoted is also... strange.

But that doesn't mean any frickin thing is relevant to the odds. Made up example:

I got in a car crash at a specific intersection, guy ran a red light on mm/dd/yy @ 2:43 PM.

I was on my way to a job interview. I got the interview because I mentioned to the guy that cuts my hair I had a car for sale. He knew someone who wanted that specific year/model. So I met that guy, and and as we talked, I learned his cousin was in the same industry as me, and his cousin had some job openings. So I contacted him, and got this interview. And got in the car crash.

So what are the odds I decided I needed a hair cut on that day, got that barber, talked about the car, etc, etc, etc..... Sure you can calculate those odds if you want. But it's meaningless compared to "What are my odds of getting in a car crash this year, assuming I drive 12,000 miles a year in this area?"

You are adding all these specific details to it to make the odds look to be something they are not.

And I didn't respond to your OP. OK, it's odd. But that doesn't mean it is or isn't relevant to anything at all. I only jumped in to agree with another poster that there are way more than one Cole Allen alive 3 years ago.

So yes, it would seem that this account was indeed referencing the Cole Allen that tried to shoot the POTUS. This should put to bed all of the people saying, "but there's lots of Cole Allens out there" as if that makes it any less odd.

Interesting and wild stuff.

Let’s assume for a second that the X post from 3 years ago did involve time travel or seeing into the future or something along those lines.

What would have been the reasoning/goal/purpose of the person or persons to post just the name? Or to make any post in the first place?

It *is* odd that a one time poster mentions a name, and no follow up, nothing else.

It might actually be *less* odd, that the name mentioned was someone who did something crazy 3 years later. As I wrote above, maybe the one-time poster was aware at the time (3 years ago) that Cole Allen was trouble, started to write a post about it to warn others, and either got distracted, or just stopped there for whatever reason (fear of retribution?). The one post might be because he wanted to remain anonymous, because he knew the guy was trouble.

Odd, but that's all. Not mystical, there are several rational explanations.

No it’s not. Probably scrolled back and edited a post he made from that time and came back for engagement farming hoping for followers and attention
