aubiefifty 18,439 Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Open in app or online the right-wing hate machine created a monster and handed him a weapon of mass death they taught him well and then they set him loose Jeff Tiedrich May 9 Share they taught him well. Upgrade to paid they put weapons in the hands of their own children and posed for Christmas cards. they ran campaign ads in which they “hunted” their opponents. they opened gun-themed restaurants. they fell all over themselves to see who could pose with the biggest gun. they did ridiculous gun-related political stunts. they told him to be afraid. they told him that his enemies were everywhere. they told him to be vigilant and ever-watchful. they told him that Democrats were the problem. they told him that the media was the problem. they told him that women were the problem. they told him that minorities were the problem. they told him that immigrants were the problem. they told him that gays were the problem. they that him that trans people were the problem. they told him that Jews were the problem. they told him that drag performers were the problem. they told him that teachers were the problem. they created algorithms and media outlets that fed him a steady diet of hate. they created a culture where guns meant might, right, and manliness. they repealed laws that impeded easy access to weapons of mass death. they voted down money for mental health programs. and they never stopped reminding him that guns were the answer to his problems. and now that the awful deed is done, and we’re learning more about the shooter and his beliefs, the right-wing ecosystem of hatred that created him want to pretend they had nothing to do with it. they want to pretend that their hand are clean. they want to pretend that this is just one of those random things that happened, that nobody could have predicted it, that no one could have stopped it, and that nothing can be done to prevent it from happening again. I mean, whatcha gonna do? they want to move on. **** you. the blood is all over your hands. and you’re not fooling anyone but yourselves. we see you. everyone is entitled to my own opinion is a reader-supported publication.

Or at least I think you do. Maybe you don't. Speaking of which, mental illness is one of the go to excuses the gun culture likes to point to as the problem. Of course, they're sorta right - all they need to do is look into the mirror. That shows where it resides. No doubt there are plenty of wacko ultra "conservative" sites that would make better use of your time. Why don't you avail yourself of them and stop wasting good space? Oh, I almost forgot, .

Oh, I almost forgot, . (That's so Salty will know to laugh.) You can have the right idea and still write about it in a bad way. I'm surprised that article didn't have crayon drawings of farm animals with how childlike the writing was. They told him the pigs went oink. They told him the cows went moo. They told him the ducks went quack. They told him the horse went neigh.

It was obviously written in a very stylistic way and was effective in it's purpose. The point of the piece was to portray the "right idea" (as you put it) and it succeeded.
