A man who admits he ran down a Muslim family said he did so because he believed anti-Muslim conspiracies he found on fringe websites like Alex Jones’ Infowars.
In other news, we still don’t have the manifesto from the transgender terrorist in Tennessee who murdered 6 in a Christian school. Funny what the media chooses to cover
Fair enough I guess. In my defense, it’s not like I intend to defend this man or his actions or white supremacy at large. All of those things are disgusting. I would just like to point out the double standard. No one seems to care when Christians or Jews are killed

What suggests to you that this is the case?
If it’s the manifesto release, i don’t see how that equates to attention on the subject. Various PDs are going to have different policies on the release of information.
And if it’s the media coverage, there was a shit load of coverage of Audrey Hale, so I don’t see why you’re making a complaint over lack of attention.
Yeah, go look at all that media coverage, half of it is about making sure we get her pronouns right and the other half is blaming Christians for pushing her to the extreme in the first place
There’s a clear narrative being pushed by the media and that particular event didn’t fit it. The entirety of the “coverage” was damage control
Looking at this article from a leftist source, in not a single spot do they go “this is her pronouns! Respect them or else! Wraaa!”. Nor do they blame christians.
I don’t think you have an accurate view of what leftist new sources were saying.
My brother in Christ, even articles like this are a far cry from this post’s “White Supremacist Killer” rhetoric. Look at these excerpts:
Hale’s parents, who lived with the shooter, said Hale was under a doctor’s care for an “emotional disorder,” Nashville Police Chief John Drake said at a news conference Tuesday.
Authorities continue to work to answer questions about who Hale was and the motive behind the school shooting. While the shooter’s gender identity is unclear, police told CNN that Hale was assigned female at birth and used “male pronouns” on social media.
A website that appears to be associated with Hale indicates that Hale was a Nashville-based graphic designer and illustrator who created logos and branding to “help tell a company’s story” and “bring a whimsical and light-hearted feel.”
Officials said that Hale was being treated for an unspecified emotional disorder.
Accordig to police, Hale’s alleged victims appeared to be randomly selected and the school and church building itself were the targets.
Hale’s mother, Norma Hale, said, “It is very, very difficult right now” for the family, before asking for privacy.
“I think I lost my daughter today,” she said.
A neighbor of the family told ABC News that Audrey Hale lived at the family’s home with Hale’s parents, who the neighbor described as “very nice” and “very religious.”

A police spokesperson told ABC News that Hale was assigned female at birth and pointed to a social media account linked to Hale that included use of the pronouns he/him.
Anything to avoid saying “Transgender Extremist Murders Christian Children”, which is what happened, end of story. There is a clear agenda from the media to demonize white straight men and elevate everybody else, regardless how heinous their actions

Wording it like that is itself agenda driven. You don’t want accuracy, you just want the headlines to fit a specific agenda, one that derides trans people and plays towards the christian persecution fetish.
There is a clear agenda from the media to demonize white straight men and elevate everybody else, regardless how heinous their actions
There is no such agenda. Most shooters are white men, so most coverage is of white men.
Your misconstruing my statements. All I’m trying to say is that there’s a disparity between the way the media covers white men’s crimes and they way they cover the same type of crimes from minority groups, and that I think there should be more consistency from the people we trust to provide us information about what’s going on in the world

But it was covered, extensively so by both sides.
