but apparently it is like Twitter but has no rules. So it attracts a lot of racists and nazis.

Anyway, I don't think he was as much of a Trump hater as he just didn't believe Trump was sincere. He only had two posts referencing Trump. One he said that Trump was a globalist not a nationalist. Of course that post was made before Trump proudly proclaimed to be anti globalist and a proud Nationalist. There was another post which was a retweet of some meme which showed Trump sucking up to a racist jewish characiture.

Eight people dead. And I am hoping this can be linked to trump. Can trump be so evil that he makes me forget my humanity and not grieve at loss of eight innocent people without wanting it provably linked to the orange piece of shit? I am so ashamed of myself and my country.

That's what it means to politicize an issue. When we had a functioning leadership, both parties would come together and condemn violence. By injecting politics into each of these attacks, Trump has destroyed the consensus, and they now have to be seen through a political lens. Because you know that's what we will do. For Trump, the violent act is less important than who the victims and perpetrators are. Knowing he will do this, we are forced to do the same.

Literally killing Americans because they are afraid immigrants will kill Americans. Follow the circular illogic of that until your head explodes.

"In a post a few days before the shooting, Bowers wrote, “Trump is a globalist, not a nationalist. There is no #MAGA as long as there is a k*** infestation. #Qanon is here to get patriots that were against martial law in the 90’s to be ones begging for it now to drain muh swamp. But go ahead and keep saying you are #Winning.” In another message, Bowers wrote of Trump, “For the record, I did not vote for him nor have I owned, worn or even touched a maga hat.”

we have a fascist, racist Nazi loving dictator and party running the country so we will see much, much more of this kind of attack. Everyone who doesn't follow the nationalistic Nazi ideology is at risk.

...his tone was more one of bitterness at being let down, of Drumpf not going far enough to suit his taste. I'm sure that he was or is no HRC supporter in any way, shape or form.

People who hate irrationally like that don't belong to the Democratic party. And if he hates the Jews, imagine what he thinks and feels about blacks and latinos. White supremacists of this nutter's ilk don't vote for any mainstream politician, left or right.
