No one is saying how he shot himself & then blew up the car. At least not that I can find.

Dead man's trigger, timer?

doktor-x.bsky.social•164 days ago

I read he had gas canisters, I'm thinking he just let the car fill with gas and then shot himself, also igniting the gas. Just a theory though.

Nonsensical ramblings from a disturbed mind. Thought his dramatic suicide was going to spur a purge of Democrats from government in Washington. Very detached from reality. Bet his family and friends tried and failed to get him help.

myanulrich.bsky.social•164 days ago

White privilege again even in death.

gigiangel.bsky.social•164 days ago

Yet another person, Fox News and Trump, groomed (brainwashed) to do bad deeds.

They need to be held accountable for the nonexistent fear they spread and the hate which results.

meggr99.bsky.social•164 days ago

Indeed! Remember, Janet Napolitano warned us about this !

meggr99.bsky.social•164 days ago

Yep, just like they did Timothy McVeigh

It’s worth debating whether his stress and trauma and “mental issues” override his stated ideology in importance. (An ostensible reason to minimize his political message.) But if we’re going to play that game, may I introduce you to the wide world of terrorists everywhere?

millie29.bsky.social•164 days ago

If it’s worth debating then we need to do same for the New Orleans guy

quietecho.bsky.social•164 days ago

Exactly

maltesefalcon1234.bsky.social•164 days ago

He was right about the danger to our democracy, but wrong about the root case. The danger is his MAGA cult master, Trump, and people like him who are actually enabling a fascist authoritarian wannabe dictator.

dulcettone.bsky.social•164 days ago

Minifestos are great for reaching the TL;DR demographic

goodrun43.bsky.social•164 days ago

Seems about white

land-snark1.bsky.social•163 days ago

That they even ask the question shows how deep in the DNA racism is.

sally-ann-cole.bsky.social•164 days ago

He no doubt had CTE from blast wave injury. The a$$hole MAGA politicians want to reduce veteran care.

F’ them

Are the white Trumpers going to keep killing themselves in the service of their lord and master? Stay tuned.

skadeec.bsky.social•164 days ago

I think they are practicing for hiding all the atrocity they intend to commit

javiermt.bsky.social•164 days ago

... Sugar-Coating 🤔 I'm still waiting for publications to report on the fake Trump ear gunshot patch shit ...

vinao9omg.bsky.social•164 days ago

They can't, because only Trump can release the medical report of his "injuries" The medical staff would be in violation of Federal law, if they leaked it.

rjharris816.bsky.social•164 days ago

Because the entire GOP are made up of tiny white guys that are inferior and afraid of every else…and just wanna watch the world burn…I hate everyone of them

illing-s.bsky.social•164 days ago

Because it doesn't fit the narrative.

rayraydennis.bsky.social•164 days ago

This individual's actions were reckless and dangerous. He cheated on his wife, got caught, and then engaged in a dangerous act that could have easily resulted in the deaths of many others. It's unfortunate that the media seems to be minimizing the seriousness of his behavior.

julesp1.bsky.social•164 days ago

He was someone with mental illness indoctrinated in our Military that my democratic dollars go to, and who his idol crush trump trampled on him calling him a sucker and a loser and wants to cut mental health for vets, guess who isn’t Democrats. The military attracts toxic masculinity.

korawithac.bsky.social•164 days ago

The difference between how he is presented and the driver in New Orleans driver can be explained by their names. They’re both terrorists.

White trumper pure and simple.

kentropic.bsky.social•164 days ago

Corporate legacy media are both servants AND beneficiaries of the insidious US caste system, as described in depth & detail by @isabelwilkerson.bsky.social. Those media generally don’t publish unfavorable coverage of dominant caste members like Livilsberger because it undermines their self-interest.

norattack.bsky.social•164 days ago

Everyone should read this book. Incredibly eye opening

kentropic.bsky.social•164 days ago

Agreed! It’s like a Rosetta Stone for understanding US politics & culture.

dmalinowski.bsky.social•164 days ago

His “minifestos” look like what you’d get by asking ChatGPT to summarize a day’s worth of Breitbart ‘news’ in the voice of Winston Smith from Orwell’s 1984

andydashiell.bsky.social•164 days ago

🔥

dmalinowski.bsky.social•164 days ago

btw I don’t mean for this comment to evaluate Livilsberger the person (who others know much more about by this point), but rather the nexus of forces that he gives voice to, if that makes any sense:

[Dehumanization] x [Hate] x [Control]

stevenerick1976.bsky.social•163 days ago

A major account got his knickers in a wad because the majority of us here see that reform is needed for help with PTSD related to the military. The mere fact we “civilians” mentioned it made him spew venom all last evening. I was told I don’t know shit. When I too have PTSD. Pull the plank out.

fudgenera.bsky.social•164 days ago

The crazies on Tik Tok are saying that he was a whistleblower. The FBI were after him and something about drones. I’m not looking forward to the next 4 years.

corruption47.bsky.social•164 days ago

Exactly

meeche.bsky.social•164 days ago

Livilsberger IS a terrorist but law enforcement hates the same people he hates so now he’s a victim.

returnittoearth.bsky.social•164 days ago

What a massive contradiction. Yeesh.

dpretj.bsky.social•164 days ago

They know there are more of them in the military, and don’t want to make themselves targets. Just a hunch.

progcapitalism.bsky.social•164 days ago

And why aren’t the Democratic leaders shouting from the rooftops about this?

spytalker.bsky.social•164 days ago

We mentioned it in y’days SpyWeek. ‘Livelsberger [said] the feds were surveilling him because he had first-hand knowledge of a secret airborne weapons system that the U.S. had used in Afghanistan and that China was using to fly drones over the U.S.’ https://www.spytalk.co/p/new-in-spyweek-murders-most-foul

sencbeachbum.bsky.social•164 days ago

And it points out that the current systems in place to help identify and treat issues affecting service members has failed miserably. DOD has gaps and then pawns off to VA. And the gop wants to gut funding or worse yet privatize. While we still lose >20 vets a day

xraybitt.bsky.social•164 days ago

Hiding this incitement to violence from the public is wrong in so many ways. This is why a free and independent press is so vital.

paullikesbooks.bsky.social•164 days ago

Reading his manifesto it seems clear he was both very, very ill (which is a awful that he went unlooked after for so long) but also radicalised by the very online, X / 4-chan, alt-right stuff. The kind of garbage Musk has allowed to flood X unchecked.

johwondine.bsky.social•164 days ago

They look at him and see themselves perhaps?

dan429.bsky.social•164 days ago

Don't let the bad guys win

eepie00.bsky.social•164 days ago

Someone said he was"upset- disillusion" w/trump..i did not see that! To him trump/musk are heros!

Whatever.. This toxic masculinity is unleashed!

We are much less safe now!!! & Our politics is doing nothing but fan the flames

cromulentdoh.bsky.social•164 days ago

Seems odd that when it might be a Muslim that drove near the border in New Orleans it’s all we heard about. Once it was revealed he was a vet it stopped. This, you hear nothing.

m-e-l-i-s.bsky.social•164 days ago

Because this is manufacturered chaos using radicalized loyalists to spread propaganda that will give authoritarians & the oligarchs who own them total control. Same script as the home tour of the New Orleans attacker. Same as "fight fight fight" and maxipads on ears.

boonedocksbuilder.bsky.social•164 days ago

Cause without them, he is just a trained military idiot.

klikklak.bsky.social•164 days ago

The press is dead. We here on the same platforms are the conveyor of news. Hopefully there will continue to be organizations that fund actual investigative journalists.

angleintraining.bsky.social•164 days ago

ok,after reading his full manifesto ,not only do women need an underground railroad like that established for slaves but maybe all folks who are not republican. This guy is calling for a holocaust of the dems ,independent progressives,diversity ideals just like Nazis dehumanized the Jewish people.

degruyphoto.bsky.social•164 days ago

but if they posted that stuff nationally, wouldn’t it give people ideas? We don’t need to be inspiring any more individuals, do we?

patmurph.bsky.social•164 days ago

There is an obvious double standard. They shared Luigis manifesto denouncing it as radical left wing terrorist ideology.

But here in the case of an extreme rightwing ideology. Crickets.

jstan696.bsky.social•164 days ago

Because he’s a Trumper

donlinn.bsky.social•164 days ago

Occam's Razor in action...

bornpissed.bsky.social•164 days ago

Umm.. he seems really stupid.

untitledscript.bsky.social•164 days ago

Will never depend on the MSN they will have different aspects on every story, they also have a record in cover up extremism in the right wing or in the Republican Party.
Then public is surprised that right-wing extremism, remains a significant threat to the United States

whatsinaname220.bsky.social•164 days ago

Bingo!!!!

kahlothekid.bsky.social•164 days ago

It’s so good to reconnect with you here #Bluesky. I dumped twitter a couple years ago and forfeited all my favorite people. Keep speaking truth.💙🌊

millie29.bsky.social•164 days ago

Interesting that the incident was same day as the Muslim sounding named guy who was also a TX resident and born in US, and veteran. One is: ‘a troubled veteran whose wife had just dumped him’. Thr other is ‘potentially working with ISIS’ and neither is true.

6ixth.bsky.social•164 days ago

dollars to donuts this has foreign influence all over it… Russia. Trump’s aim is to declare martial law
