That's your perception based on experiencing what occurred through the lens of media, law enforcement, politicians, the feds, journalists, etc. Collectively, that narrative is a clusterfuck at the moment. Depending on who you ask, they may want you to think the alleged incident was highly emotional because that fits their narrative of a “radicalized leftist lunatic.”
Writing a manifesto and taking an action described in the manifesto don’t have to match as far as emotions go (or the lack of). I realize you’re saying the alleged act was an emotional one, but based on the manifesto, it seemed like more of a necessary next step for a seemingly deeply intellectual individual who placed his beliefs and values above all else. At least that was my interpretation of it.
I get that, and yeah the timing is suspicious, but this guy has a documented history of supporting Palestinians and protesting throughout the last 18 mths. I also think it would be devastating to be him and find out everyone thinks it was a false flag. This was bound to happen and honestly when would have a GOOD time been? Of course Israel will capitalize on this and exploit it, trump will do the same. I’m not happy about it either.
I saw the 'manifesto' yesterday.
First thought was: It's too clean by that I mean, it's quite unemotional although this WAS an emotional attack.

I don't watch Mainstream Media or TV.
I am halfway believing it was just what you say BUT the day after prominent Govts. SEEM to be responding with regard to Israel, is a bit obvious!

I know nothing about him really. Have not read anything on substack.
This is through NYT, so take it with a grain of salt. :) Though the they're not as bad as other publications.
