Trump Rally Gunman Was 'Definitely Liberal,' Conservatives Recall
Nothing people love more than feeding their own narrative. The guy was clearly mentally unstable and in dire need of therapy. He could have been a communist or an ancap for all I care. This attack doesn't reflect on anything other than the sad state of mental healthcare in this country.
edit: I guess being pro mental healthcare is an unpopular opinion on Lemmy.
Yes, somehow when a conservative murders (or tries to murder) someone, they're just a mentally ill lone wolf and this in no way reflects on their ideology, which coincidentally somehow manages to keep producing vastly more of these mentally ill lone wolves compared to others.
So odd isn't it?
Yes, not quite sure what to make of that. Maybe conservatism needs to go to therapy?
