Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Has anyone actually read the El Paso shooter's manifesto?

    Crusius worried about many things, if the manifesto is any indication. He certainly worried about immigration, but also about automation. About job losses. About a universal basic income. Oil drilling. Urban sprawl. Watersheds. Plastic waste. Paper waste. A blue Texas. College debt. Recycling. Healthcare. Sustainability. And more. Large portions of the manifesto simply could not be more un-Trumpian.

    Can you fucking read @HardlyClothed ?
    Yeah based on his actions I’d rate urban sprawl and college debt pretty high on his motivating factors. Fucking idiot.
    So we're supposed to pay attention to part of his manifesto but ignore other parts of his manifesto that don't advance your narrative that Trump is to blame. Got it.
    Uh yeah, seems like the part about wanting to repel the hispanic invasion of Texas is the most important part of the manifesto based on his actions.

    Bob, question for you. Why are you so intent on making sure the person is a liberal?

    Because he’s a white supremacist. Your questions are somehow getting even worse.

    Crusius expressed a number of reasons for his anxiety about immigration. Among them was the growth of automation in the American economy. "Continued immigration will make one of the biggest issues of our time, automation, so much worse," Crusius wrote. Crusius had obviously read reports that millions of American jobs will be lost to automation in coming years. He noted that while "some people will be retrained ... most will not."

    Crusius felt automation would take away his future, too. "My whole life I have been preparing for a future that currently doesn't exist," he wrote. "The job of my dreams will likely be automated."

    The automation threat, Crusius continued, means the U.S. "will have to initiate a basic universal income to prevent widespread poverty and civil unrest as people lose their jobs." (Crusius shared an interest in universal basic income, or UBI, and a pessimism about job retraining, with Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang.) Crusius' idea was that fewer "invaders" meant more resources for government programs. "Achieving ambitious social projects like universal healthcare and UBI would become far more likely to succeed if tens of millions of dependents are removed," he wrote.

    Then there was education, the price of college, and the job market. "The cost of college degrees has exploded as their value has plummeted," Crusius wrote. As a result, "a generation of indebted, overqualified students [are] filling menial, low paying, and unfulfilling jobs." A high school degree used to be "worth something," he said. No longer.

    And then, the environment. Americans enjoy an "incredible" quality of life, Crusius wrote, but "our lifestyle is destroying the environment of our country." Corporations, he said, are destroying the environment by "shamelessly over-harvesting resources."


    Hell he sound like you HC. He just directed his hate at Hispanics while you direct it at Republicans and Conservatives.

    Why do you love fucking strawman ass? I didn't try and claim he was a liberal. Why are you such a fucking liar?
