Looking at him yesterday vs the picture in the post above I think you may be right.Wouldn’t surprise if meth was involved.
definitely a big issue in Sydney nowadaysWouldn’t surprise if meth was involved. Clearly not a human of sound mind.
Why was Rachel Riley blaming Muslims for this attack? I mean even if it was ISIS, it's a cult of Phanatic's that kills more muslims than non muslims.Doesn't look like an idealogical nutter although there is a smell of icel or something similar with the high proportion of women attacked.

Probably a good idea to wait until motives are clearer in any such attack.Why was Rachel Riley blaming Muslims for this attack?
Erm? Not sure I like that sort of thinking.I mean even if it was ISIS, it's a cult of Phanatic's that kills more muslims than non muslims.
She's totally gobbled up the Zionist talking points and has become increasingly brazen in her Islamophobia. Evidenced by the fact that she's now doubled down on her initial tweet even after the attacker's name/identity has been published.Why was Rachel Riley blaming Muslims for this attack?

They are the lowest of the low since at least the École Polytechnique massacre in 1989.
Rachel Riley is a consonant vowel consonant consonant.but Rachel Riley said it was the muslims or something
A 40 year old homeless man, with a long history of mental illness - which has previously brought him attention from the police - and a recent history of deteriorating mental health. I think we can probably leave the culture war out of this one.I'd blame the extremely toxic culture that is targeting young men these days, but that's a 40 year old man.
People these days have no decency to apologise and say I am sorry I got it wrong, but as you say, she is probably not a decent human being to expect anything decent from her.She's totally gobbled up the Zionist talking points and has become increasingly brazen in her Islamophobia.

One of the bit of attention from the police was not long ago when he called the police to complain that his family had taken/stolen his knives. His family have reportedly told police that he was schizophrenic.A 40 year old homeless man, with a long history of mental illness - which has previously brought him attention from the police - and a recent history of deteriorating mental health.

And of course there's no mention that the man who got killed is a Muslim security guard trying to stop the attackerShe's totally gobbled up the Zionist talking points and has become increasingly brazen in her Islamophobia.

she expressed regret if her comment had been "misunderstood"[/spoiler]
Totally normal thing to say.Should clone the guy just to put him a room with Rachel Riley and livestream it

If the trigger was a psychotic episode (which seems likely) then the motive will be, by definition, completely irrational and not because of any kind of ideology.Seems like they are investigating the working hypothesis that he was targeting women, which is hardly surprising. No suggesting of an incel ideology being involved so far but he did seem to seek out women.
It could be a bit of both I guess? I mean, if someone leans a bit incel they're probably not in the best of mental health to begin with, but then if something goes horribly wrong from there..If the trigger was a psychotic episode (which seems likely) then the motive will be, by definition, completely irrational and not because of any kind of ideology.
It’s so depressing the way the culture war extends its tentacles into everything these days.
Right wing: “Ooh a mass killing! Let’s hope it’s a Muslim!”
Left wing: “But he killed women! Fingers crossed he’s an Incel, that would be great!”
To be fair, you’re not wrong. Delusions can be based on an ideology. But what makes them a delusion is the fact that they’re removed from reality. So a jihadist might want a holy war but a psychotic jihadist might think he’s been called up to fight in this war by a radio transmission into his brain.It could be a bit of both I guess? I mean, if someone leans a bit incel they're probably not in the best of mental health to begin with, but then if something goes horribly wrong from there..
even in psychotic episodes there is still usually some link to the conscious mind remaining right? Genuinely asking the question I have no clue
The potential incel type motivations have come from him targeting women and his father saying his son had no social skills and that he was angry or frustrated by not being able to get a girlfriend.If the trigger was a psychotic episode (which seems likely) then the motive will be, by definition, completely irrational and not because of any kind of ideology.

Agreed, but the only issue with this one is that the police were aware of him already which should end up in a review of what went wrong. We won't be able to help them all, but we can try to improve things as much as we can.Mental health issues would explain the stabbing of the baby, problem is I don't think there is much that can be done to stop these kinds of attacks. You can provide the help these people need but there will always be those who cannot be reached until it is too late.
He has schizophrenia. These would be fairly common issues that anyone with the illness has to deal with, they’re known as “negative symptoms”. It’s a horrible affliction.The potential incel type motivations have come from him targeting women and his father saying his son had no social skills and that he was angry or frustrated by not being able to get a girlfriend.
I'm not disputing that at all. Just saying where the incel talk came from.He has schizophrenia. These would be fairly common issues that anyone with the illness has to deal with, they’re known as “negative symptoms”. It’s a horrible affliction.
Agree. It reduces topics that are quite complex, like mental health and online radicalization, to "He's not getting laid, so he went on a killing spree". It's dumb.I hate the word Incel.
