Bless your ignorant heart, fam!

Hey everyone! Someone from The “cOvId iZ a HoX” and “ThE eLeCkShUn WuZ StOLd!!!” crowd has something to tell me about making up boogeymen!

Your response truly saddens me. I’ve been out and dealing with anti-LGBT hate for 30 years, but I still wouldn’t wish this upon anyone and I’m able to have empathy and compassion for their plight. These people- hateful as they may seem-were, if anything, victims of the lies spread by right-wing propaganda and the orange buffoon. Unfortunately there are a lot more people who have been poisoned by this rhetoric, so I fear that things are really going backwards for us at this point. Time to be prepared.

Yeah tell me about it. The options were awful

They were all Q-anon lunatics that withdrew from society to let their various mental problems metastasize.

I don’t think they thought it was about politics, but I can draw a straight line for you from Trumpy-Qanon-Evangelical-homeschooled beliefs (and conspiratorial media consumption) that leads right to delusions, depression, isolation, paranoia and thinking that murder/suicide is the best course of action.

it's interesting seeing all the "love lives here" yard sign types expressing their joy over this family's death.

they're mentally ill and love to see their perceived enemies die

internet induced mental illness. Very common.

making up Boogeymen?

you never had empathy to begin with. Empathy for you is only granted to those in 100% agreement with you

Maybe next time don't pick an out of state shill because some imbecile in a suit picked him out.

Yes. I'm embarrassed you're from Pennsylvania, too.

This whole situation is so very sad.

Or maybe we should invest in efforts to make people safer by making these facilities less isolated and give every child/adult access to therapy?

Jail doesn’t prevent these things. Affordable Intervention and preventative measures that make these facilities more public however does prevent these things.

Overly devout Christian, pro trump, pro-life. So you could say there were plenty of signs of mental issues before this happened.....

This is a very widespread issue and could easily be fixed by giving people power over their own lives and by making facilities like this less isolated.

But all the focus of people is on the perpetrator’s punishment instead of on future victims getting preventative protections that actually work.

What is the evidence that the suicide pact was based on politics? I saw the girl’s video postings suggesting she was severely schizophrenic, saying she was abdicating the throne of England and she was the antichrist. I was thinking she is seriously mentally ill and the parents felt they couldn’t seek help due to their religion.

But it's not a cult

Imagine being the police that saw that. Bet that’s hard to deal with.

You’re not wrong. I’ve ‘lost’ friends and family members to the cult. It’s maddening
