> Who cares where it is posted?

Instagram is deep-state, establishment, anti-gun.

8ch is very likely independent and pro-freedom.

If it originated on Instagram, it looks really bad for the anti-Trump establishment.

Get it now?

Technically it is trivial to determine the truth about when and where it was posted.

I'm sure the 8chan guy knows this and wouldn't risk lying about it.

Best to wait for the facts to surface and hope the official line is presented honestly..

Those that in their hearts would like to see ethnic cleansing are whipping up racial hatred.

That is their idea of reparations.

Heavy is still reporting the manifesto as being from the shooter, and everyone is still reporting that he is a white supremacist. The only thing separating him from the average Bernie bro is the manifesto.

It was probably the Vegas team of shooters.

-- Is it possible that Watson is lying about this in an effort to keep 8chan alive? --

Certainly, but I think not. The site will exist at some point, just not on cloudflare or certain other providers.

And based on your prejudice, I think there is no significant risk to 8chan reputation. People have made up their minds on the subject, and that's that.

So deplatform Instagram then.

It’s only fair.

Quick pass a bill!!!!! Before the bodies go cold and we get all the facts!!! Hurry!!! There is little doubt in my mind that these incidents were planned by really evil puppet masters. Way toooo convenient.

Trivial? Is it trivial to determine if the shooter even actually wrote it? Is it trivial to determine if HE ever posted it to Instagram or anywhere at all? Maybe someone else did.

There's nothing trivial here at all.

AntiFa is just the cannon fodder idiots with a public face. If there is someone/entity involved it is far more nefarious.

I agree with you.

I was talking about technically determining posting history.

Determining the author is another matter.

I personally don't think he wrote it and won't until I see evidence.

> deplatform Instagram

Exactly, and perfectly logical.

A lot of FReepers still don’t understand.

FBI about to get exposed via declassifications.
“Q” predicted false flag a few days ago.
Word gets out that FBI Phoenix called Q a terrorist.
Trump has softly authenticated Q.
Attack is launched.
Q platform (8ch) is blamed for attack, and taken down.
A few of us are able to draw conclusions.

Police need to be careful and avoid a repeat of Oswald/Ruby.

There was plenty of reason to suspect that the Midterm elections bomb scare was a phony plant, and there is more and more reason to believe that this manifesto is a fraud. The Dayton shooter was a Warren supporter, does that make her a “White Supremacist?” Why not? Fits all the cues. Didn’t that idiot kill enough people? There is reason to believe that this whole affair is a massive fraud, let them prove it is not, just like Trump has to somehow prove he is not a racist.

Most New Zealand gun owners didn’t turn theirs in and most of the evil assualt weapons owners in the northeastern states bucked and didn’t turn their in either after Sandy Hook hysteria.

As for a fight you don’t fight it like that. Probably 500 IRA members tied up huge sections of the British army for nearly a century in Ireland. Unless the government is willing to conduct airstrikes inside the US they don’t have enough troops to control the entire country. Sure you can move in large forces and exercise your will in areas, but once you leave, what’s left is easy pickings if you know how to do it.

[[[To believe this requires one to believe that the Walmart shooter did not act alone.]]]

Maybe someone had a manifesto ready to go if and when another attack happened. This thing seems so in depth and organized. Not the dead end rantings of a homicidal lunatic.

Or as is said, maybe he didn’t act alone or had a handler.

Is there any evidence the manifesto was put on Instagram? And in what form? In the images, or comments? Has it been scrubbed (I assume)? Or was it ever there?
