      Follow up on the 2018 terrorist attack in Toronto, where Alek Minassian drove a van into numerous pedestrians. He was charged with 10 counts of 1st degree murder and 16 counts of attempted murder. His trial is scheduled for Feb 2020. The police just released his confession.

      As you all know, I'm a big fan of primary sources, so here's the full transcript of the interrogation. I encouraged anyone interested in US domestic terrorism to read it. The motive, language, and themes will sound familiar. http://www.seditionists.com/minassian1.pdf

          The first 50 pages are primarily dull, procedural stuff. The only interesting bits I saw were that 1) he was special needs kid in high school, and 2) his parent immigrated from Iraq to Canada before he was born.

          It's kind of depressing how unoriginal the defendant's thinking and lingo are. He's not much deeper than a human meme.pic.twitter.com/mQwxZznjCr

          Yea. He talks in memes. Totally isolated from reality and basically living in a virtual subreddit.

          I've never read anything like that. Minassian's cold phrasing: "converting life status to dead status." The interrogator switching between elderly FB user to intimacy with 4chan and related sites' argot, getting M. past his refusal to answer with a dozen questions answered yes.
