    The NZ terrorist's manifesto reveals a lot about his pathologies. I won't use his name, but we need to understand what drives these killers. Here are some highlights. To start with: Despite his supremacist bluster, he has a cultural inferiority complex. Here's one passage. /1pic.twitter.com/JDpGyj48KL

        Here's another sample of the killer's racial inferiority complex. He argues for protectionism because "white markets" can't "compete in the global market." /2pic.twitter.com/SJXISlOo8y

        He was radicalized by ... shopping. Outraged to see Muslims peacefully walking into French stores and exchanging money for goods. It's the bourgeois normality that infuriates him. /3pic.twitter.com/GyR0knNoJc

        He frets that whites will "find their very own genes being bred out of existence," in part "through miscegenation." Clings to this idea of protecting white genes from being diffused through the population, and thereby somehow lost. /4

        He agrees with critiques of systemic racism. That's why he dreads becoming a minority. He also talks about the plight of linguistic minorities: "The conversation of life excludes them, the mass media isolates them and businesses turn them away." /5pic.twitter.com/gu7ma9U0yW

        He tries to recast white nationalism as a kind of "diversity." A "rainbow" of separate colors. You stay in your band, he implies, and I'll stay in mine. /6pic.twitter.com/t68XvWxYnk

        He defines whites broadly: Bavarians, Poles, Estonians, Venezuelans. Seems uninterested in drawing cultural or biological distinctions among these groups. Rules out "Han Chinese" but says China is "the nation with the closest political and social values to my own." /7pic.twitter.com/9yfdROsIIs

        He claims to stand for "environmentalism" and "green nationalism." Says the planet can't properly support 10 billion people. This holds him back from advocating sheer white procreation. Instead, he advocates subtraction through mass murder. /8pic.twitter.com/ywY2OnH55N

        Economically, he advocates left populism: unionize workers, raise the minimum wage. That's only for whites, since he's a racist, not a progressive. But he does call imported nonwhite workers "modern slaves." /9pic.twitter.com/7cpEAW1UrY

        Finally, there's this cold-blooded case for killing children: They'll grow up to threaten you; do it for your kids; and it's the best way to deter immigrants. The deterrent argument echoes Trump's case, not for murder, but for family separation. (See https://reut.rs/2TCOgYS ) /endpic.twitter.com/VHeH7TtfPb

        Thank you. We must bring to light the reality of what is driving the hate. Democracy dies in darkness. #TruthNow
