    The article claims the perpetrator was trans. They conveniently left out that they detransitioned and fell into nazi and fascist ideology.

      I figured some inconvenient truths were found about the shooter, which is why no one seems to want to run stories about it

        I’ve seen more stories today about this single ex trans person than all other shooters combined this year.

        It’s being covered a lot right now.

          The venn diagram of mass shooters is like 95% overlap with nazi ideology and the mass media is like “how about we just cover the 5% that makes conservatives feel upset”

        ‘No Way to Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens

        Other countries have figured this out. I don’t see why America has to be different.

            I’m de facto banned from Florida on account of being trans.

              Ah. Well, it explains a few things. (Florida does, that is. To your question.)
