    May be. Could also be that because of the likes of Carlson and the aforementioned legislature, trans youth are becoming more alienated than ever. This is not to sympathize with or forgive a mass shooter. But we know the root cause of this shooting epidemic is alienation, more often than not leading the shooters to becoming Nazis. I find it feasible that a trans kid could snap like this, is all.

      That’s also a possibility. Either way this could trigger a bloody back and forth of shootings between fascists and trans youth, where the trans youth clearly are not in a position win out. It would alienate many would be allies by attacking school children with acts of terrorism and not an organized struggle against fascism and the state.

      On top of that with the new surveillance state law getting pushed, we are living in scary times.
