The guys at 8chan have to prove it is Crusius’. I provided reasons based on the manifesto and 40 years of classroom teaching going back to the days of Watergate. The skills shown in that manifesto are highly unusual in a person who graduated HS three years ago in 2016. The arguments and ideas are well developed, show knowledge of the topics, anticipate counter arguments and despite the extreme measures contemplated the writing is not wild or irrational. It is calm and detached. Those are my reasons for believing this manifesto is not the work of the person in custody and on video.

AND further up this thread I SAID “feed it through a ...” go read the post.
If the manifesto is related to his feelings, then someone wrote it for him and probably sent him forth. When 75% of high school grads need remedial English in college... well, this missive is way into the upper percentile. Not only that, his grasp of history, societal conflicts and future probabilities are beyond his education and life experiences - particularly since he claims to have developed all this beford Trump. Phony.

I agree about the manifesto....my first thought was Anders Behring Breivik of Norweigh, (the Island massacre, and the guys he often communicated with on line), who left a manifesto. Just an idea but This kid living at home could very well had been filling his head with this stuff, they do recruit. Add in the distance he drove he was on a mission as if sent? I believe he did not just decide to do this but others were involved who knew this was coming.
Here again is why I think he was filling his head with this sort of stuff...he writes:
‘I’m not really motivated to do anything more than what’s necessary to get by, Working in general sucks, but I guess a career in Software Development suits me well... I spend ‘about 8 hours every day’ on the computer... so that counts as technology experience I guess. Pretty much gonna see what technology careers present them”
He would be an easy target to recruit.

Yes, the yutes of America ain't got it going in the education department, and haven't had it going for several decades.
Maybe AI wrote it for him and told him what to do. (Half said in jest)
