More details on the Texas shooter Mauricio Garcia.
There should not be a paywall on this:

His last post on the website is something akin to a manifesto. I'm not going to post it.
Bottom line from reading all of his recent posts:
He wanted to kill and he needed his kill count to be high enough so that fellow shitposters would make memes commemorating his evil deed.
My description should tell you lot about his radicalization process. It's weird the Times didn't address it.
His "analysis" of the recent Nashville elementary school shooting provides a bunch of clues - the slang, the themes, the misogyny, the focus on post death fame, all of it is there. You could just as easily be seeing this on 4chan, discord, or twitch.
@jjmacnab Again, those of us who are Latin know well the racism embedded in our culture. You don't see too many "Indios" on Mexican telenovelas.
@jjmacnab "We still don't know the shooter's motivations."
Another sociopath heard from.
@jjmacnab His intentions were there for all to see on his body and online. Hard to keep up when there are likely thousands of such individuals. I guess the trick is to figure out which one is an impending mass shooter.
Really, really not subtle.
