    Please stop posting this unless we have proof that he wrote it himself, a picture of it, or at the very least some kind of new information that the previous 10 posts on the subject didn’t have.

    All these articles eventually trace back to the same one guy that claims to “have the manifesto” source “trust me bro”

      Ken Klippenstein is the bro and he is diligent about the trust me. This is an instance where I think it’s reasonable to “trust me bro”.

    I mean, if he doesn’t say it’s his manifesto, we need to be skeptical. Since he is claiming he is not guilty right now, we have to assume this is something weird.

        Those brows don’t lie. But I am definitely open to evidence that he was not it. This should be a very fascinating trial

      I wouldn’t take a “not guilty” plea as evidence of much.

      Pleading “not guilty” is the only way to get in front of a jury, which is probably the best chance he has at this point — both in terms of staying out of jail and in terms of boosting his message.

      A trial will inevitably become a media circus, and a media circus is great if your goal is bringing attention to your particular ideology.
