    Can people stop spreading this without verifying the source?

    I am skeptical given we have samples of his writing and that and that this has been circulated as his manifesto. Authorities have stated the manifesto is 262 words, handwritten (likely not copied digitally), and we have a quote from it stating he was working alone. This is in the area of 1500 words, reads like crap, does not include the quote, and does not account for the means of his family.

      why does the source matter in this case?

      how is anything written here untrue, just because the source is different?

      the source means nothing to the people that suffer under this oppression.

      but the message: THAT matters.

      THIS message matters.

      whether it’s made up or not, the fact that it is immediately recognizable as possible is proof enough that it is true regardless of the source.
