I did read the article, thanks.[1] I'm saying he can say whatever he wants but it's just a tired attempt to distract by pointing the finger at Instagram. There is zero evidence it was uploaded to Instagram and then 8chan and at the end of the day it doesn't matter. The "manifesto" was on 8chan before the crime took place. It was shared on 8chan. And discussion was encouraged on 8chan.
Did the shooter uploaded it to 8chan? I think it's more likely than not. But the identity of the uploader at all absolve 8chan of responsibility for creating an environment where such a document would be a welcome and encouraged topic of discussion? Not at all.
