The outpouring of support for the shooter in this case has sometimes reminded me a little of pre-revolutionary France. Now that he's been arrested, we can see he's likely to become a charismatic figure for many. He's good-looking, intelligent, and has a social media trail that means he'll attract support from the left and right.

Here's a Nitter link to his Twitter activity. He's hard to pin down politically. Veering from anti-trans, pro-men's rights, pro-Peter Thiel/Elon Musk, to his obvious approval for violent revolution. His review of the Unabomber's manifesto makes the latter clear too.

It seems almost inevitable he'll develop a cult following among some. Yet this will be tied to his ideas for violent revolutionary action in America. How might this impact the future?
