   So, the Vegas Cybertruck guy was a fascist and the media is more or less glossing over that part because...? (Hint: they're fascists too, this is what we do now, we're fully on board with this fascism thing because rich nazis own everything and there was no other logical conclusion to where a society controlled by rich nazis was heading.)

     @waitworry Yeah this guy didn't tho.

     "This was not a terrorist attack, it was a wake up call. Americans only pay attention to spectacles and violence. What better way to get my point across than a stunt with fireworks and explosives?”

     "Rally around the Trump, Musk, Kennedy, and ride this wave to the highest hegemony for all Americans! We are second to no one."

     @AnarchoNinaWrites I can't quite grasp why it's taking people so long to catch on to this. It's painfully obvious with the semi-regular stories about major publishers blocking publication of articles or cartoons that hit to close to home.

     @AnarchoNinaWrites hmm terrorism to support the guys who already won and are getting their way is certainly a choice

     @Lightfighter @AnarchoNinaWrites people want to be mislead because it absolves them from the moral imperative to do something.

     @jcutting @AnarchoNinaWrites I'm sure there is some of that. Also some wishful thinking that print journalism is somehow immune from the entertainification of news media. Thinking news rooms are full of Woodward and Bernstiens led by editors like J. Jonah Jameson.

     @AnarchoNinaWrites There’s a pretty good writeup by @CrimethInc about this: https://todon.eu/@CrimethInc/113769009046594444

     What's striking about the manifesto left by the Trump supporter who shot himself and set his truck on fire outside the Trump hotel in Las Vegas is that the desire to harm others merges with the urge to self-destruction.

     Arguably, this characterizes millions of Trump supporters.

     It's no coincidence that a man the FBI described as a "heavily decorated combat veteran" would end his life saying "I needed relieve myself of the burden of the lives I took.” Being a killer for hire weighs heavy on the conscience.

     These mercenaries are damning themselves to living hell so that billionaires like Trump and Musk can turn a profit.
