Why is gaben crying in the thumbnail?

[–] fluxion@lemmy.world 37 points 2 weeks ago

Because he just found out his friend is a murderer?

[–] JacksonLamb@lemmy.world 18 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Because he had a friend who he loved who started making questionable choices and is now wanted for murder. I would cry too.

I saw this guy on TV, and he was truly perplexed at hearing about his friend's actions, and eventually just broke down. I felt bad for him.

The MAGA Nazi leaders are pure evil, but many of their followers aren't inherently bad, they've just been manipulated by the Conservative Propaganda Machine to think they are saving their country. This guy seemed to suddenly come to that realization.

Even with consuming mostly left-leaning media I keep seeing right-wing content hitting my feeds CONSTANTLY. It's so insane that one video has "Destroyed X with this debate" while the next is "X Won debate against crazy rhetoric". I'm not even singling out right wing with this either, everyone is just horrible with the click bait titles and I can see how powerful the bubbles are to expand yourself out of even if you have a desire too.

Christian who

how shockingly not shocking

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah last bit in the article contradict what this person really is.

[–] AWistfulNihilist@lemmy.world 29 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I love how everyone talks about how nice this guy was. He goes to Africa a bunch, huh? I bet this guy was one of those death-to-the-gays type preachers who go to African countries to preach psychopathy. He's nice to everyone he likes, and wouldn't hesitate to kill someone he doesn't.

Super nice guy!

Remember it's a mental health crisis when it's a white shooter and a culture problem when it's a colored shooter.

[–] BingoBongoBang@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

And terrorism if muslim

[–] Showroom7561@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 weeks ago

Amazing how headlines will say LUIGI THE KILLER, but when it's about a white, Christian, domestic terrorist carrying out political assassinations, he's just a SUSPECTED SHOOTER.

🤷‍♂️

i want to ask that guy why he likes trump because the conservative project appears to have led to nothing but ruin for him and his close friend
