The 18-year-old who was charged in the Saturday shooting deaths of ten people in a Buffalo, New York, supermarket revealed in his diary that his radical beliefs originally developed in communities on 4chan and Reddit.
Before the shooting, which occurred in a predominately black neighborhood, Payton Gendron published a 106-page manifesto online describing himself as a “white supremacist” and “anti-Semite.” Gendron said explicitly in his diary that he developed his beliefs from 4chan and Reddit after the start of the pandemic.
The article goes on to state the following:
Numerous media organizations attempted to link Gendron with the Republican Party and prominent conservatives like Tucker Carlson for inspiring Gendron while largely overlooking the shooter’s own words, in which he blamed online forums including Reddit and 4chan while condemning the Republican Party.
“My current beliefs started when I first started to use 4chan a few months after covid started. Many of which I got from 4chan’s /pol/ page and links found in /nsg/ and threads like that,” Gendron wrote in a diary under an entry labeled for Jan. 30. He was referencing 4chan discussion forums.
“Of course, many of my beliefs come from reddit too. Many subreddits I joined have been banned but they show up on r/AgainstHateSubreddits all the time,” he also wrote under the Jan. 30 label. “One’s that are still around include r/greentext, r/4chan, r/PoliticalCompassMemes, r/SocialJusticeInAction, r/LoveForLandlords, and r/AntiHateCommunites, of which I am actually in their discord.”
One of Gendron’s beliefs is in “replacement theory,” the theory that immigrants are being used to replace Americans in order to help elites to gain political power, something he mentions in his diary.
The Daily Caller points out that several media outlets pointed to other sources for the teen’s radical ideas, despite his diary entries.
In one example, they point to NBC News’ Ben Collins, who accused Fox News’ Tucker Carlson of being someone “directly trying to preach” to extremists like the Buffalo shooter.
In another, the outlet references a Rolling Stone commentary piece that said the shooter was a “mainstream Republican.”
They also note that The Washington Post published a piece linking the teen’s ideology to Carlson and other Republicans.
The New York Times blamed Carlson as well, accusing him of promoting replacement theory.

A reminder that this was Tucker’s response to the NYT’s exhaustive review of his show which revealed it’s one of the most racist shows in history, consistently promoting the replacement theory, the conspiracy that radicalized the Buffalo shooter.

Like the El Paso shooter who targeted a Walmart in a Latino neighborhood, the Buffalo shooter, who went after a store in a Black neighborhood, subscribed to the Great Replacement theory touted by conservative elites like Tucker Carlson and believed by nearly half of GOP voters

The statement that half of the GOP supports Replacement Theory, is bullshit, we ALL know the Demoncrats are trying to achieve this with all the illegals pouring in at the border.
As usual, Demoncrats blame Republicans for the very thing they are doing !
Well said, and yes, Democrats along with the MSM – the identical twins of Marxist anti-Americanism!
BY and Scott are spot on. The demorats blame everything THEY do that is wrong on the Republicans, then have the balls to call them racist.
PROJECTION IS THE PREFERRED METHOD OF COMMUNICATION FOR THE TWIN PILLARS OF THE ANTI-AMERICAN, MARXIST, HATE MACHINE:
DEMOCRAT POLITICIANS &
THE CORRUPT MAINSTREAM MEDIA
TO A LESSER DEGREE, THE BRAINWASHED, IGNORANT, SHEEPLE THAT VOTE DEMOCRAT!
The Demoncrats breed these children into their hate-filled lies. So sad. Pray for these people that the no longer be decieved by such evil but see the truth and think before acting in the name of Jesus, amen.
