A grocery store. A rifle. A manifesto written with hate, packaged with memes, spread like rot online. Ten dead in Buffalo, targeted for being Black.
The shooter didn’t invent the idea. He borrowed it. From forums. From pundits. From politicians who toy with “replacement theory” like it’s just another metaphor.
He livestreamed it because cruelty is content. Platforms profited on the clicks. Families buried their dead. And the news cycle moved on before the blood dried.
