Kenny Klipz has the goods. This is the real thing, most likely.

BTW it’s not behind paywall so do our guy some good and give him some traffic for the scoop.

    I think people are making outrageous overestimations of how competent the NYPD is. The idea that they essentially hired some deep state actor to pretend to be the guy to cover their asses while branching the conspiracy outside of state lines and fooling another department is so ludicrous to me like if they were gonna do that they would at least wait another month or two in case they find the real guy.

    I think this whole thing is fun but the grasping at straws is pretty wild to me like the eyebrow thing was already refuted perhaps we just want the guy to be our Lenin and we’re mad that he’s actually just a techbro weirdo?

    Lots of magical thinking going on IMO but I would be very hyped if I’m wrong about this

      Let us have our HexAnon fun for once, OK?

      Now if you’ll excuse me, I still have dozens of internet articles about digital compression that I have to read tonight to prove that the eyebrows were not the same!

      I agree lol. Like if this was a setup then wtf does luigi get out of this, because he would clearly be in on it.

      Ultimately he’s a weird guy who did a cool thing. I wish people wouldn’t focus so much on him and instead focus on the discourse and environment it created. I don’t really care what he thinks, people are rabid for this to happen. And that’s good. It’s pretty clear this is the guy who did it and that’s fine, on to the next one

          Yup. Regardless of dude it has clearly done a good bit of work in letting people realize they can do things like openly advocate for a health insurance CEOs death. I doubt these people would have explicitly reprimanded someone for mentioning it before, but people just openly screaming about it now. A good environment!
