>I reached out to people who knew the gunman, 29-year-old Joshua Jahn. Three who knew him since at least middle school agreed to speak to me on the condition that I not name them, corroborating their friendship with photos and other records. Their accounts paint the picture of someone with a vaguely libertarian bent who despised both major parties and politicians generally (including Trump) but who didn’t engage with politics beyond that.
>“He was most certainly an edgelord, an irony guy,”
>“Josh was an edgelord who wanted someone to get blamed. I think he tried his best to write something goofy … to rile people up.”
>Another friend showed me a Facebook post describing how Jahn had flooded his friends’ comment sections with rape jokes — “playful shock humor,” the friend said.
Hyper-Online turbo zoomers committing ironic shootings for “le-meme”
This country is just raising a bunch of nihilistic domestic terrorists because theyre all full of hate and feel they have no future. Likely mentally ill with little to no help to support.
“despised both major parties and politicians generally (including Trump) but who didn’t engage with politics beyond that”
Huh… so for the lols? turbo online zoomers just crashing out
