Didn't Spencer Cox even say that he is shattered that the shooter was "one of us" (read: white male) and not an immigrant? Like on TV, not in a cocaine-fueled xitter rant post.
Edit: Found it
I don't understand why he's trying to spin it like people from Utah are exceptional people for not rioting and burning cars. The guy was a grifting YouTuber. It's not like the president died.
The people who make it a regular habit to attack others because of who they are, yet also somehow have a persecution complex, find it pretty easy to assume that when one of their own gets attacked it's because of who they are too. It's like a damned street gang that's looking for a fight. "One of themmmm killed one of ussss, time to counter attack! To waaar!"
"... oh shit THAT bullet was from our side TOO? I think nobody noticed. Can we get this party started or what!?"
It's as gross as it is predictable. Their reactions to these shootings always follow the same rule: a member of the master race killing one of the subhumans is just an unfortunate fact of life, but one of the subhumans killing a member of the master race merits national if not global headlines that will at minimum be memorable trivia for people who lived through that year.
And I say this as an old white dude.
