Because that's a number of mass murdering racists have cited it as the motivation for their mass murdering.
Edit:like how is reducing the black population through murder not connected to the great replacement theory. I have a really hard time judging sometimes if you're actually a bigot or just laughably credulous.
Overly simplistic and childish. Incitement to violence should always be silenced.
Who said anything about locking people up and why do so many people here think "but Biden" means anything. I think at best people here would say he is better than trump, I can think of like 2 users who actually like him.
It's the 1st I ever heard of the conspiracy and the source in the thread (a tweet) states it's about purposefully bringing in immigrants and I'm pretty sure black people aren't the ones coming over the border in droves. I couldn't care less about this bullshit theory so I'm not looking up anything else because it's just a waste of time and just going off what was posted in the thread.
That wasn't the kind of censorship I was replying to. I replying to the kind of censorship that the tweet was upset at, and that has nothing to do with inciting violence.
Do you not realize how much disinformation is broadcast on "trusted" sources? Isn't there enough fiction about dystopian worlds to know that censorship is bad?
The Great Replacement Theory posits that the white population is deliberately being replaced by people of other races. If that is something that bothers you, you might be a racist, and while far from all racists commit murder against members other races, this individual seems to have done such a thing. What's more, killing black people means that mathematically a larger percentage of the population are of races that aren't black, and white happens to not be black, so it is a way to combat the alleged replacement. Furthermore, the shooter left behind a manifesto, and he appears to have been a believer in the theory.
It's all baloney, but I don't expect mass shooters to be thinking rationally.
Simply put, Great Replacement states that non-whites are systematically out-numbering whites in order to oppress the latter. Anyone with more melanin in their skin than Chris Hemsworth is a target in this conspiracy.
Also, the shooter had a manifesto that explicitly linked his actions to the conspiracy. When people tell you who they are, believe them.
As I said above, the source (tweet) said it had to do with immigration. Black families have been here for generations already. Yes, I obviously get killing any non-whites would "help" but if the main thing is hate for immigrants, then it doesn't make sense.
Yes, yes, absolutist free speech, we know. You should be allowed to send people death and rape threats with no repercussion or censorship because free speech. We get it.
Also, why do you think bringing up Biden is some kind of gotcha?
Again, where did I say threats are OK? I was commenting on the proposed censorship of disinformation. "Trusted" sources spout disinformation all the time, including the president (whether Biden or not). Biden said Rittenhouse was a white supremacist, which was disinformation, and could lead to violence (though it's not a threat by any means).
