    Nothing really interesting imo. Just a bunch of comments that literally anyone his age would have written, e.g., cat memes, video games, weather in Utah, etc. I guess it paints him as just a normal kid but maybe he kept his thoughts to himself.

    I’m surprised he didn’t preface with alleged shooter, it’s definitely not so clear cut that you can just say he’s the shooter imo

      I could be wrong, but the fact that he’s confessed makes it so that the news sources don’t have the usual liability issues that require the use of “alleged”.

        I would have been surprised if they did. There’s just a lot of misinformation and overcorrection going around, so I’m hearing “they’re making up the trans roommate” more often than not, and it’s all getting confused for me.

        • Yeah. So many people just blindly pushing that it must have been a trans person without any evidence and then when that was clearly debunked, they quickly just assumed some trans person must have been somehow involved. And they were still wrong. So I get why people strongly doubt it (especially when some of the reddit posts are now private). But it does seem that a person whom seems to be trans . how many cis people know about how a bunch about how much YMMV with HRT and name specific SERMS and how people report mixed success? The only alternative is claiming a person who changed their steam name from Lance to Luna is a femboy cares a lot about HRT and SERMS because they are a femboy, which technically is possible but also insulting to assume as much unless they have said that themself.

          Once again, that’s all assuming those accounts belong to the people they’re alleged to belong to.
