I guess what’s tripping me up is that if there are people so disaffected by society that they are willing to murder children because 4chan told them it’s cool, why is there not at least a higher prevalence of individuals who are willing to do the same thing to bankers, executives, politicians, etc.? I mean obviously there’s one or two big ones here and there, but the ratio is WAY off, and it’s not like people don’t know who’s fucking everything up, even if some people have been pointed the wrong way by propaganda, there’s still surely at the least hundreds of thousands - if not millions - of Americans who are able to see the past the veil of red vs. blue nonsense to the glaring source of the problem.
It’s not the same thing as building up a community or movement, I’m just amazed that we have such an excess of mass shootings but only one person who actually deserves it gets blasted, what, once every several years, if that?

Well honestly we have had two in the last two years, which is a better ratio than it has been.
