He was carrying it around for absolutely no reason and for long enough to get caught with it? Bullshit, it’s manufactured evidence.

First thought that came to mind as well, it sounds very implausible for him to be carrying a manifesto.

Another thought I had is what if he was still writing it?

Well, a YouTube account with the shooters name posted a video today titled “truth” which was basically saying that there were videos scheduled to be made public in the near future (presumably on the same account), which would speak to his motivations and mind set or something of the sort.

Instead of telling you about it, I would prefer to just link the video, but according to YouTube, the account associated with the YouTube channel has been removed, so you can believe me or not on this. the video was only up for about 4 hours and when I saw it, maybe 30 minutes before it was removed from YouTube, it had 10’s of thousands of views. I know those counters aren’t exactly real time, so it’s not unreasonable to think that upwards of 100k people saw it, maybe more, and unless one of them saved it, it’s likely that nobody else will see it.

Well well well,

Once, not if, but once it leaks, who ordered this, and who executed said order of this information being suppressed, you’ll have more heads in line for the guillotine.

¡Congrats!

Pretty sure that YT account was faked, or mis-related to Mangione

This thing about a guy at Macdonald’s recognizing his eyes also sounds bit strange tbh

Or he consider himself a crusader for a cause more than a vigilante and was carrying it to get more attention to his beliefs.

And yet instead of waiting around to get lots of attention and people *quoting things he said before cops arrived he quietly got on a bus. Doesn’t track.

My tin foil hat theory is that he was planning out another shooting and got interrupted.
