I was just about to post the same thing Monty. It is a horrific example of his presidency.
The terrorist attack in NZ is beyond a tragedy and is an encapsulation of the radicalization of young white men in the west. His manifesto has been described as incoherent, it is only the sense that it lacks a structure. It certainly has a narrative and that narrative is white supremacy. That is something that should be stated unequivocally. This is a far right terror attack committed by a white supremacist. People should not be misled by his manifestos non sequiters or general lack of sense. His purpose was very clear.
Coming together is good but only means something if this kind of terror is named and persued with the same energy that Islamic terror is. Anything less is lip service meant to assuage valid anger. In fact it should be pursued with more vigor because it is the bigger threat with quasi state backing.
