The world runs on a level of nuance that is more complex than that.

Just out of curiosity, how much does it have to be before it officially crosses the line and becomes too much for human dignity? One murder? Two murders? Insurance fraud?

One piece I read just started calling the suspect Rob.

Some people seem to adhere to the idea of "they committed a horrendous act and also died, therefore they can be exempt from our modern etiquette".

A mindset I see all the time by both sides of the spectrum. I even saw the "it" card thrown around for mere fraud once.

They knew her motives though.

They used to, but I don't see so much of that anymore.

It sure is breathtaking.

There's always a manifesto, my friend.

She wasn't cis though.

Why do people even think this form of unrest ever amounts to anything? Has anyone ever been like "hey, [insert identity here] are causing all this random death, suddenly I feel motivated to sympathize with whatever their unspoken issue with the world is"?

I'm in the dark about the racism part. Did they discover she hated a certain group or something?

To me, in this context, death is death. Many people like to jump into talks about things like motives, identity, and so on. Side circumstances. But they're all just that, circumstances. All amoral details in a tragedy are equally amoral.
