Politics
For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.
Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only
▪️ Title must match the article headline
▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)
▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.
Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication-No Fox News or equal), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.
Rule 4: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.
Rule 5: Be excellent to each other. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7. No conjecture type posts (this could, might, may, etc.). Only factual. If the headline is wrong, clarify within the body.

I guess he figured he'd get more attention for his manifesto if he blew himself up using basically the 2 just talked about symbols. Unfortunately for him, someone else decided to do something similar in New Orleans and killed more people.
And yet we’re all talking about him and not New Orleans.
Not for long. He'll be forgotten by next week.
I already forgot about it until I saw this post. This is just another Monday in the 20's.
It's been relatively equal from what I've seen around both traditional media and fediverse posts.
New Orleans was ISIS. As much as it sucks we're used to seeing that. This is a straight up puzzle to people unfamiliar with the mental and brain health problems being discovered in soldiers with long service and a high number of deployments with combat.
