| he was pretty cerebral and thought about religion a lot. |
| This trial is going to be a circus. |
They would have tracked him if he’d flown. |
Meh. His reading list and online history is a Rorschach test for people’s own political alignment. People who want him to be left-wing see that, people who want him to be right-wing see that. Much like the Unabomber, his political ideology probably crosses both traditional left- and right-wing positions because at heart he is probably just crazy. Honestly a very bright male 26-year-old who who disappeared and is into psychedelics? I think schizophrenia is more likely than a specific political persuasion. |
He follows AOC and Trevor Noah as well. The real tell is Tim Urban. |

Yes!!!!!!!! What a letdown. |
| Imagine being a ruthless grinder corporate striver your whole life just to get merked by an Abercrombie model named Luigi. Really unbelievable stuff. |
The crazy left wing and crazy right wing are more alike than different because they come together in their craziness. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horseshoe_theory |
I don't know that they would have, or if they did, it would take awhile. He could have been across the globe in a country without an extradition treaty before they even released their crappy pics. |
| He and his family have benefited greatly from the health care industry. I’m guessing he has either a serious mental illness (which is tragic) or major issues with mom and dad (in which case he’s not a folk hero but a petulant rich kid.) |
It is the other way around. He is an extreme anti-capitalist leftist that went so far left that he became a reactionary ideologue. I think he settled as an accelerationist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerationism |
I don't think he has the money for this. |
| His family didn’t recognize him and turn him in?! WTAF! |
He reposted this on a book review website, seems to tease out his headspace:
