Any time the perpetrator of a terrorist attack has a social media profile that says very directly that they’re a far right accelerationist, the headline is like “BAFFLED COPS PONDER THE RIDDLE OF SUSPECT’S MOTIVATION”

The job of media commentators is to respond thoughtfully to how people feel, not to tell them how to feel. Which is why the editorials deploring the reaction to the healthcare CEO slaying are such failures of curiosity and understanding, such triumphs of obliviousness and elite panic.

What if I told you that the only reason I am bald is that I’m afraid of a Ratatouille situation? What if I told you that I’d have so much hair if not for the fear of a rat using me like a puppet? These are modes of control, Neo. This is how they manipulate us. Ratatouilles, Neo. Rats that pull hair.
