    Ever seen good old Babylon 5? When the corrupt president seizes the media and uses it for propaganda etc. There are still good people in the media, but they can’t be openly critical or they will be removed. Subtle jabs like this are pretty much all they’ll be willing to risk.

      But if this is all a plot by the US government, and the assassin is presumably in on it, then why would the manifest be talking about pedophiles at all? That is not the kind of fake manifest Team Trump would have written.

        I was joking, I don’t think it was staged because they looked like idiots.

        But if they were to stage it, what do you think they would put on the manifesto? They hate him for having too nice hair? They would want to associate the people who criticizes them with madness and violence.

        I guess they hate enough people they could have used Muslims, trans, black… Hell even greenlandish as scapegoats.
