Thwarted terrorist attack at mosque in Norway

[Gorbles]

Maybe she used to bully him mercilessly and stick pins in him and the trauma of it grew and festered within him until he just snapped.

"white nationalist is envious of his non-white adopted sister" is a far more understandable assumption than your complete fabrication, here

How about
envious brother finds a hype cause to kill his sister

It would help if we knew their ages, but I'd be hugely surprised if she wasn't adopted when he was still too young to cope with not being the absolute focal point of his parents. Virtually always it will lead to psychological issues (though obviously not always murder) if a kid gets a sibling when they are still in the preschool age (usually this happens because the family had a new birth).
Besides, you can't really convince a toddler than the new child didn't come because he/she just wasn't enough for the parents, and therefore the first child will inevitably feel very frustrated.

Understatement of the year.
"though obviously almost never murder" would be more accurate.

"I believe in this complete fabrication more than the other complete fabrication"

 

[Gorbles]

No, the attacker was literally a white nationalist. You don't applaud Christchurch, target a mosque yourself, and have people pretend otherwise. It's not a fabrication to say white nationalists might not get on with people who aren't white. That is basically their ethos.

 

[Manfred Belheim]

Sorry, but Kyriakos' post was just complete supposition. No matter how plausible it might be, "Quite likely she was the trigger for his racist views anyway. Maybe she was adopted back when he was too young and this made him envious" is still pulled entirely out of his colon. As such I just joined in with the colon-pulling since that's what we were doing.

So, just to be clear, you're not actually disputing that he had racist views?

 

[Manfred Belheim]

What new pointless diversion are you trying to drag me down now?

 

[Gorbles]

The one you started by objecting to people calling the attacker a white nationalist who might have a problem with his adopted Chinese sister who has turned up dead. The one you continued by making up a completely unrelated reason that discounts a) the attacker being a white nationalist and b) his deceased adopted sister not being white. Oh, and c) actually blames the sister.

 

[Manfred Belheim]

Oh my god what are you even talking about? Where does the phrase "white nationalist" appear in this statement:

"Quite likely she was the trigger for his racist views anyway. Maybe she was adopted back when he was too young and this made him envious"

Why do you people always do this? Seriously? Why can you just never argue honestly or accurately represent things that the people you're arguing against actually say? Is it really THAT hard to just not constantly make stuff up and misrepresent people? I'm genuinely just sick of dealing with it on here. It's a constant uphill struggle to even get people to accurately recognise what you've said, never mind get them to actually engage with it.

How much clearer do I have to be? "Quite likely she was the trigger for his racist views" is just complete supposition, based on zero evidence. "Maybe she was adopted back when he was too young" is also complete supposition. Does anyone in this thread have the slightest bit of information of when she was adopted? Doesn't look like it since apparently we don't even know which is the older sibling. So, again, this is just complete supposition pulled out of the ether.

And that was the entirety of the post. Two sentences, neither of which are based on anything at all other than supposition. And I have to defend why I see that as a pointless post worthy of a quick parody where I similarly just make stuff up out of thin air? And then I have to go out of my way to placate Lexicus by explicitly stating "I hereby declare that I do not dispute he had racist views", despite never saying anything that indicated anything to the contrary? And then because I didn't want to deal with that nonsense, I now have to deal with your accusation of "objecting to people calling the attacker a white nationalist", which clearly and obviously and objectively and demonstrably never happened?!?

Seriously go away with this nonsense. This is CFC discourse in a nutshell (at least a significant subset of it) and it's just tiresome in the extreme. And then to make it even worse, the same people are the ones who say I argue in bad faith, or am not being honest about what I "really think", or other such nonsense, despite pulling crap like this on a daily basis.

Well, I'll explain my reasoning for thinking of you as a bad-faith actor on this particular occasion. I ask you a simple question to clarify your views on something, and you respond by firing back a hostile question in return implying I'm laying some kind of trap for you, then instead of just clarifying your views you type out a multiparagraph rant about how terrible the "discourse" is on a website you presumably choose to continue visiting....and you still haven't actually answered the simple question.

As per the information in the OP, the attacker is a white supremacist. The statement builds on that recorded fact.

 

[Kyriakos]

"I believe in this complete fabrication more than the other complete fabrication"

Reading a psychology study sometime wouldn't hurt you - what I posted is common knowledge. About as easy to verify as googling the terms. It is only extra funny since you are so oblivious of what most people already know that you try to make an issue out of this /facepalm.

In this particular occasion? It's more like "always".

 

[Yeekim]

For once, I gotta say Kyriakos's theory, while entirely speculative, is totally plausible.

It can happen that Petlyura would ally with Pilsudski.

Wow, victim blaming much?

So, just to be clear, you're not actually disputing that he had racist views?

Would you like to answer this question Manfred? Are you disputing that the person in question held racist views?

 

[Farm Boy]

and it's just tiresome in the extreme.

So... poof!
