This may/may not end up getting moved. We'll see how it goes. But...

... I read something really interesting.. yesterday, I think.  The shooter...  He was 12-years-old when Trump won the 2016 presidential election. Think about that and the implications it has on anything and everything currently going on in this world. What did a 12-year-old kid truly know and understand, on that level, as well as throughout his entire presidency? When the 2020 election was held, the guy was a whopping 16-years-old.

You can read stuff online, see videos, etc., from people who knew him at school. They talk about him being "bullied" a lot... One guy said almost every day. Other people talked about kids picking at him because of his body odor. He must not have had the best hygiene and his classmates let him know about it.

Sorry... just a very, very weird overall situation.

***EDIT*** Roga... I think the 12-year-old part might be in your article "over yonder" ***

From Wikipedia:

Incel (/ˈɪnsɛl/ IN-sel; a portmanteau of "involuntary celibate"[1]) is a term closely associated with an online subculture of people (mostly white,[2] male, and heterosexual[3]) who define themselves as unable to get a romantic or sexual partner despite desiring one.[4][5][6] Originally coined as "invcel" around 1997 by a queer Canadian female student known as Alana, the spelling had shifted to "incel" by 1999,[7][8] and the term later rose to prominence in the 2010s, following the influence of Elliot Rodger and Alek Minassian.[9]

The subculture is often characterized by deep resentment, hatred, hostility, sexual objectification, misogyny, misanthropy, self-pity and self-loathing, racism, a sense of entitlement to sex, blaming of women and the sexually successful for their situation (which is often seen as predetermined due to biological determinism, evolutionary genetics or a rigged game), a sense of futility and nihilism, rape culture, and the endorsement of sexual and nonsexual violence against women and sexually active people.[10][25] Incel communities have been increasingly criticized by scholars, government officials, and others for their misogyny, the endorsement and encouragement of violence, and extremism.[26] Over time the subculture has become associated with extremism and terrorism, and since 2014 there have been multiple mass killings, mostly in North America, perpetrated by self-identified incels, as well as other instances of violence or attempted violence.

Hmmm. Dang. That's quite profound. I can definitely see that being a present issue. Wow.
