San Diego, CA - So, some rando shot up a mosque in San Diego on [insert hypothetical date and time]. Naturally, the usual suspects are screaming 'hate crime' louder than AOC at a free vegan ice cream social. Look, violence is bad, m'kay? But let's not pretend we haven't seen this script before.

They're already dusting off the 'rising tide of Islamophobia' narrative. Remember that Covington kid? Pepperidge Farm remembers. Before we knee-jerk react, maybe we should, I dunno, wait for the actual facts to come out? Seems reasonable, right?

The libs are probably already drafting legislation to ban 'offensive' thoughts. Because that's totally constitutional. Freedom of speech? More like freedom to say what the Ministry of Truth approves.

Expect endless virtue signaling from corporations and politicians. Rainbow logos will be replaced with crescent moons faster than you can say 'woke capitalism.' They'll pretend to care for about a week, then go back to exploiting everyone equally.

The media's gonna milk this for all it's worth. Cue the tear-jerking interviews, the hand-wringing op-eds, and the obligatory comparisons to the Holocaust. Because everything is literally Hitler, right?

Let's be real, this could be anything from a genuine hate crime to some dude who lost his parking spot. Occam's Razor, people. Simpler explanations are usually the right ones.

But hey, at least it's a good distraction from the fact that the economy's tanking and Biden's approval rating is lower than Kamala's chances of becoming president. Shiny object syndrome, activate!

So, yeah, mosque shooting. Sad. But don't let them use it to manipulate you. Stay skeptical, stay informed, and remember: the truth is out there, probably buried under a mountain of propaganda.

In the meantime, I'm gonna go grill some burgers and enjoy my freedom. You should too. Unless, of course, that's considered a hate crime now.
