    The FACT here Adolf is you are talking out your ass and are obviously incapable of backing up your constant bullshit and lies. So how about you do your best to try and find SOMETHING to back it up. Otherwise just shut the fuck up. I already know you are on the level of a barely functional retard. No reason to keep proving it.

    You never back up shit. Only when cornered like the rat you are. Looks like Newsweek has cherry picked what was said in the Manifesto. Right after that he goes on to say he does not like Donald Trump and despises his policies. You must have looking for days to find this.


    "As you might expect, most of the blame-gaming for the tragedy in New Zealand was aimed at President Donald Trump, especially because the Australian shooter noted in his 74-page manifesto that he was a supporter of Trump “as a symbol of renewed white identity and common purpose.”

    Yet those eager to tie Trump to the shootings mostly ignored the next sentence in which Tarrant asked whether he supported Trump “as a policymaker and leader? Dear God no.”

    Tarrant wrote that he was primarily catalyzed to violence while touring France, which he saw as overrun by immigrant “invaders.” His other influences included African-American conservative activist Candace Owens, 1930s British fascist leader Oswald Mosley and Norwegian terrorist Anders Breivik, who was imprisoned for killing 77 people in two attacks in 2011.
    Shooter wanted to divide Americans

    Tarrant was very much aware of how his actions in New Zealand would play out in the American arena. He wrote that one of the reasons he carried out the attack — and with guns — was “to create conflict between the two ideologies within the United States on the ownership of firearms in order to further the social, cultural, political and racial divide within the United states.”

    So when Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Kim Kardashian, Madonna and others used this tragedy to push the gun control agenda, they followed Tarrant’s predicted script.

    But those who wanted to use Tarrant’s work as a platform for more wide-ranging condemnation of American conservatives were stymied by his unwillingness to take issue positions following the usual U.S. political battle lines. “The nation with the closest political and social values to my own is the People’s Republic of China,” he wrote. Tarrant said he could be both right wing and left wing, “depending on the definition.”

    Tarrant called himself an “ecofascist” promoting “green nationalism,” anti-population growth (excepting Europeans), anti-urbanization and pro-sustainable economic practices. He is pro-union, pro-minimum wage and pro-workers rights (to keep out immigrant labor). And he explicitly rejects conservatism, capitalism, individualism and consumerism. “Conservatism is dead,” he wrote. “Thank God. Now let us bury it and move on to something of worth.”


    While the ideas in Tarrant’s manifesto do not fit neatly into the fixed boxes pundits use to define American politics, the document as a whole resonates with other examples of extremist literature such as the Unabomber manifesto and Osama bin Laden’s 2002 “Letter to the American People.” It presents a radical worldview, a list of grievances and a mobilizing call to action. It details a terroristic methodology, to agitate, destabilize, create crises, and exploit opportunities. It is a case study in terrorism as a revolutionary method."

    Reading is fundamental. That basic skill seems to be lacking with the left on this board.

    Reading is not the problem! We can all read.

    The difference is Republicans can't tell the difference between fiction and non-fiction!

    Those are direct quotes from his Manifesto in full. Not cherry picked things like you found. The truth confuses you.

    I was just repeating what Newsweek said about the Manifesto.

    Since Trump Faked his picture on the cover of Newsweek, I thought you Trump Supporters had integrity in Newsweek!
