I am tired of mainstream media reporting all of the excuses the misogynistic, racist terrorist gives for murdering 8 people, including 6 Asian women.
Mainstream media & “public intellectuals” also obsessed w/ defending police who push the terrorist’s defenses: lying about his racism, sex addition, etc. Problem not subtlety of how @atrupar or others cover police’s remarks, but why police are spreading the terrorist’s propaganda
Confident that if this terrorist was a minority race or religion, police would not take him at his word on his motives, and report to US about his feelings (he was having a bad day? I don’t care, because I am not sympathetic to him one bit) on the day he murdered 8 people.
Much better if everyone focused more the crime, how it fits into larger pattern of terrorism against Asian-American and other minority populations, and how we can better protect the affected communities. And, like every other terror attack: how was this terrorist radicalized?
