When you saw that the alleged shooter was a big admirer of yours, what was your reaction? Honestly, confusion and sadness. Confusion about how someone who really likes my stuff could also be a person who does this.
If I imagine the Venn diagram circles of people who not only like my stuff but evangelize about it and those who not just support political assassination but do it themselves... he might be the only person in the overlap.
What that tells me is that, most likely, he had a really bad mental health break of some kind.
The way it made a 26-year-old accused of perpetrating an act of spectacular political violence seem not like a creature of the internet's radical left but of its contrarian, podcast-y center.
