The Dark Parts Of The Internet Are Celebrating The Capital Gazette Slayings

[Snellius]

From HuffPost via Yahoo News:

Within hours of the mass shooting Thursday at the Capital Gazette in Annapolis, Maryland, the worst factions of the internet were doing what they do best: starting the “false flag” threads, celebrating that “leftists” ? in this case, five people in a newsroom ? were dead, and worrying about how this horrible shooting would play for conservatives.

“Dead journalists can’t spread leftist propaganda,” one 8chan user wrote.

“Here we go! Right on time,” another on the subreddit r/The_Donald wrote, as another said, “So it begins.”

On Twitter, “Spectre,” a white supremacist podcast host, made fun of an intern at the Gazette begging for help during the shooting and said, “I wonder if it’s only journalists or if any real people got hurt.”

1. During the bush years I used to look at a website whatreallyhappened

It was anti bush and anti new world order. Now it is the liberals are inhumane and are to blame for the migrant crisis and not letting twitler do the job he was elected for blah blah blah. And the thing that made me want to vomit was saying their saying the shooter was a Democrat operative and did this as a false flag. That’s some cray cray shit. And the stuff they say about President Obama is appalling. I have a feeling that a Russian troll brought the site.

I felt so sick after looking this site I deleted all my cookies in my web bowser. But this is some of dark stuff you were warning about in your comment.

2. No such thing as facts or reality or truth . It's ALL fake. Lies are the only truth.

Everything is reality TV. Orwellian newspeak. Everyone is an actor playing a script. They don't believe because it is true. It's true because they believe it. The liar knows he's lying. The truth is it doesn't matter. All that matters is what works. Truth is the enemy. The "enemy of the state". Trump understands this. The media can try to fact-check until they're blue in the face. This is the real crisis. Of minds incapable of seeing what right in front of their face.
