It must really suck being him. I mean, you hear the occasional stories about some thirsty loser who gets involved with Nazis and throws his life away because he was seduced by some psychopathic bitch. Pic related - the guy with the stache and the red-haired girl were married and had a kid. Somehow she managed to talk him into letting her and the chinless douche on the far left stay in his house - even though she was a neo-Nazi and Chinless Kid was president of the local Aryan Nations group. You all know how this sort of story ends - she convinces herself that he's got a comfy life insurance policy, and gets the guy she's cucking her husband with to kill hubby for the cash. Another Aryan Nations guy got involved on the killing, though I don't remember if she was cheating on her other two men with him or not. Probably.

But, okay, I can sort of see how a heterosexual with low standards might find the bitch fuckable. But Tarrant? Tarrant wasn't recruited into Nazism by a psycho whore. Tarrant was indoctrinated into it by our old /pol/ board.

Can you imagine waking up every day in prison... and remembering that you threw your life away for Jim Watkins and the neo-Nazi movement - and now most of the Nazis you did it for think you were a Mossad operative trying to discredit Nazism and push gun control on New Zealand? And then the humiliation of remembering it was Jim Watkins who got you. Jim. A senile pig farmer.

If he's been following the news (I don't know how much internet drama they let you stay up to date on in solitary over there), he even knows that Jim Watkins recently filed court documents to *prove himself senile*. You're in the prime of your life and you were manipulated by a senile sociopath with a bad case of delusion - and not manipulated into something harmless like throwing away your buttcoin winnings, but into MASS MURDER.

Two stories. The Aryan Nations business was in Australia and not directly related. (Did come with the ironic twist ending that not only did the Nazis get *caught*, but... dear departed hubby didn't HAVE a life insurance policy. The killing would have fucked them up completely even if they HAD gotten away with it.

The vid that OP posted is a terrorist attack on New Zealand. Now, you probably know about 8/pol/. The FREE SPEECH board that lets you say things that NO OTHER WEBSITE will... but they defined all opposition to Trump or National Socialism as 'shilling' and banned it. As long as you never undermined NatSocs or Trump (Yeah, I know pic related and NatSocs are a weird combination. For a while they prioritized protecting Trump over NatSocs, but eventually they got tired of it and just went NS), you'd never notice the bans. You'd just see threads where the last word always went to people who had Adolf's cock so far down their throats that his ball was on their uvula.

If you've got a weak mind, that creates the impression that national socialism must be right - after all, nobody seems to be able to come up with a rebuttal to it that lasts more than a few posts. And there were RECRUITERS on 8pol. Recruiters working for a guy serving a life sentence in Norway after he murdered a bunch of kids. They approved of the whole 'murdering kids' thing, but they didn't really want to get caught... so they mostly spent their time trying to convince OTHER people that mass murder was good.

Enter Tardant. He'd gotten really lucky with his investments at a young age - which is the sort of thing that convinces most noobs that they are in fact brilliant. Dumbasses who think they're smart are easy to manipulate, and Tarrant was no exception. The recruiters convinced him to go and kill a bunch of people at a mosque, and to livestream it to try to encourage others to do the same.

Tardant's stupidity is obvious when you look at his manifesto and his propaganda. Tardant claimed he was killing Muslims to avenge the murder of Ebba Ackerlund. (Not pictured. The girl on the swing is named Eva Lutken). But he sought out the blessing of Anders Breivik - who is the man who killed Eva. He repeatedly praised Breivik as a hero. Now... I'm no fan of National Socialism. I'm well aware that NatSoc philosophy leads people to do degenerate things. But... there are plenty of NatSoc ecelebs whose celebrity comes from something other than murdering children. The man was simply not smart enough to notice that his hero committed the very acts he was willing to kill to punish.

His stupidity continues with the choice of action. Tardant was RICH. He could have gone to the Middle East, murdered a bunch of ISIS guys, and been remembered as a real hero avenging Ebba. He could have pretended to be a recruit so he could get closer and maybe kill some mid-level leaders. Bring the terrorism to ISIS! But no. He went to the middle east... and he went home and declared that he had no quarrel with ISIS. They killed Ebba, but was he going to do anything to hurt them? No.

Instead, he went after a civilian mosque with a high refugee population. Now, most people aren't familiar with the details of ISIS theology... but according to ISIS, *running away from them* means you're not a real Muslim. *Living among Westerners* means you're not a real Muslim. He went after people ISIS considered traitors!

And he posted the ads for the livestream on 8chan. It turns out that when a whole bunch of people are murdered on a live video feed on your site, the cops start to wonder if the site had something to do with it. So suddenly there were Feds all over /pol/ (or whatever NZ's version of a Fed is. Two-Islandmen?) Watkins had to know the board's purpose was to recruit Nazis, unless his senility is more advanced than I think. If the law knew he knew he'd be in deep shit. So he had to do SOMETHING.

.... to be continued ...

It's not clear to me whether the site was yanked offline by his ISP or whether he took it down, but after it went down it took a very long time to come back up - and when it did come up, most of the boards had been purged. He slowly brought them back (at least the public ones, I don't know the timetabel on the private ones.). He tried to distance himself by claiming that the livestream link had been posted by a US IP, and since Tardant attacked New Zealand he couldn't have posted the link. Prior to Tardant Watkins had claimed that 8chan didn't log IPs, IIRC... so just by announcing that he exposed himself as a fraud and a fool. Either 8chan didn't log IPs, in which case he didn't ACTUALLY know what IP it was posted from.... or it DID, in which case he'd been lying about the privacy guarantee for a while.

The 'fool' part comes from the fact that proxies are a thing, and while they're not hard for GLOWIES to sort out, even a COMPETENT sysadmin would need LE resources to verify that the poster wasn't a proxy. (We've all seen the quality of code that NT Technologies generally writes. This site worked okay when Hotwheels maintained it; take him away, and it's been unreliable crap e0001.) If Watkins had asked someone competent, they'd have told him that the US IP isn't proof.

So. After trying to make excuses, 8chan was down for a while. Eventually Watkins got tired of it and brought it back up as 8kun... but with board creation disabled and most of the boards gone. The boards have been slowly brought back, but the old content is gone and the new moderation rules are meant to create the impression that Watkins is actually trying to STOP illegal content.

Tardant's in prison for the rest of his life. His livestream did fulfill his master's objective, though - it encouraged attempted copycats. The kid with the poor phenotype is one of those copycats - he tried to shoot up a mosque in Europe. There was an old guy in the mosque (65, I think) when Tardant's fanboy came. Old guy beat him up, took the gun away, and sat on him until the cops came. There was one death: the would-be mass shooter's pride.
