That’s it? That’s the whole thing? This is what all the censorship buzz is all about? This reads like an unremarkable angsty Reddit comment. Every single social platform is filled with countless of these.

I guess this is qualitatively different because this is him describing something he actually did after the fact rather than the meaningless posturing most other people do. At that point though, is it still even “inciting violence”? The violence was already incited. I don’t see him explicitly threatening more or rallying others to do more. “Here’s why I did the thing” is not the same thing as “I’m going to do the thing” or “you should do the thing, too”.

The censorship of this is stupid. I hope this gets Streisand’d to the heavens.

really? it looks remarkably un-angsty to me! i’d expect someone who shoots a dude to write something way more angry, but this is just matter-of-fact “shit sucks here’s why”
