And that’s basically it!
These fuckers have lost their minds since Trump and his cronies got arrested. It's disgusting how awful the right is behaving.
At least in this case, it looks like the man was already deeply mentally ill and his target selection could have random or illogical (like "that man has stolen my face").
But that's the dirty secret with the "fuckers" you're talking about -- most of them were already mentally ill (or heading there) and the far-right used that vulnerability to radicalise them.
It's part of why the waters get muddy so quickly when someone covers themselves in swastikas and kills as many people as he can with his super-cool, legally-owned guns.
The left says "Another far-right, racist piece of shit murdering people" and the right screams "No! He was mentally ill. You must be if you murder someone. After all, I know plenty of far-right, racist pieces of shit and none of them have killed anybody".
And while you definitely don't need to be mentally ill to kill people (unless you want to claim everyone in the military is mentally ill and the military taught them how), a lot of these shooters are clearly unwell.
Which is how the trick is done. The far-right seeks out the mentally ill, encourages them to commit acts of violence and tells them who to commit that violence against.
What group has the most depressed young men? Gamers (and oh look they've been infiltrated by the far-right)
What group has the most untreated paranoid schizophrenics? Conspiracy theorists (and oh look they've been infiltrated by the far right).
What hobby appeals to violent men with blood-lust? Guns (and oh look they've been infiltrated by the far right).
If you know someone who is vulnerable, reach out to them before a neo-nazi does.
