The teen who shot up an Indianapolis FedEx facility and killed eight people was reportedly part of a bizarre Internet subculture obsessed with “My Little Pony.” Posts on Brandon Hole’s since-taken-down Facebook page appear to indicate he was a member of the “Bronies” community—a group of mostly adult men who are extreme fans of the kiddie toys and animated television show, the Wall Street Journal reported. Some members are sexually attracted to the characters, while the group also has allegedly displayed far-right tendencies.(Snip) “Brony online culture has displayed elements of far-right and white nationalist extremism,” the memo stated.

In other words, if you can't find significant evidence that he's a Lefty, he a far right, neonazi, white supremacist.
Sweet!!

FTA: “I hope that I can be with Applejack in the afterlife, my life has no meaning without her,” Hole wrote on his Facebook page at 10:19 p.m. Thursday, less than an hour before his rampage began, the outlet reported. The post included a photo of Applejack, a blond pony that is a main character on the show." The same federal outfit that dispatched 19 agents to investigate a NASCAR garage door pull interviewed Mr. Hole here and deemed him fit as a fiddle. Didn't even put him on a firearms watchlist despite confiscating his shotgun, and who knows, maybe even steered him to a friendly dealer. Remember Operation Fast and Furious? Few do; all water under the bridge.

No self-respecting right-wing man would be a Brony. They are usually basement-dwelling soy boys, or the guys who flunk out of college because they are too busy playing video games.

I thought all sexual fantasies were to be celebrated. Now we have to add CP to the list of LGBT letters- Cartoon Ponies.

The Bronies are mentally ill and ridiculous. Right wingers? No. They just slapped that on there. There is nothing race related about these otherwise twisted men.
If we still had real journalism instead of pure Marxist propaganda they'd have some evidence of that but it's a complete fabrication that will now get repeated as fact to the shame and consternation of both conservatives and bronies, neither of which wants to be associated with the other nor any form of racism.
If the bronies are a bunch of right wing racists why hasn't the FBI rounded them up? Because they're mostly left wingers living out their perverted fantasies. They definitely need a letter in the alphabet soup list: GLBTP+. Anything less is discriminatory.

I don't think ANY right-wing person would be a "Bronie", self-respecting or not.

This sounds so silly that the “memo” has to be a joke that gullible so-called reporters swallowed whole. Unless we find out that, besides the Final Solution, the Gestapo and the Waffen-SS Adolf Hitler designed adorable rainbow-colored toy ponies with flowing manes or that Bull Conner played with dolls and dreamed of marrying a hunk of plastic named Fluttershy, it would be wise for us to wait for further details.

Right wing? Who threw that in there? The guy was a pimply-faced person who was in love with fantasy characters. He needed Jesus, not plastic gods.
If he was out there, there must be many more just like him.

Also, something about Brandon doesn’t scream “teen” in today’s parlance but his last name alone would cause anyone to go off the deep end.

A poster said he was a text book case of fetal alcohol syndrome. That makes more sense than this bs.

Incel -- involuntarily celibate
It's a thing. By now, more than one generation filled with incel young men, it's endemic. Imagine the raging hormones at their age, no outlet and little hope of things changing. What's more unobtainable and fantastic than My Little Pony? How does a young man find himself there? In a toxic, oversexualized culture, incels hear daily that they have no value. Worse, they're a problem.
Sow the wind, reap the whirlwind.

So some jerk at the once-dependable Wall Street Journal put in the bit supposedly linking this bunch of basement dwelling masturbators to 'the right wing'?
Sounds like the WSJ is deliberately shredding any remaining bit of the credibility that it once had.

#14, the last shred was gone quite some time ago at WSJ. I occasionally spend a minute or two at my financial advisor's office.....not anything I would bother with today. I used to subscribe for years. Wouldn't take it for free today.

Incels are likely to become violent against others they feel are heterosexual and normal. This punk should have put the gun to his own head first, but that would be caring for others, which arrogant prigs never do.

There's no indication that that this mental defective had any political affiliation whatsoever. In fact he should have been institutionalized, and his own family warned the feds (who even searched his room) that he was about to get violent, but the agencies need mass shootings so they can justify gun control. The bit about adult baby Bronies being right-wingers is a nice comic touch, a little finger in the eye, so to speak, as they act with impunity.
