nomenym 15 points 20 minutes ago Actually, it matters lot. The guy's manifesto makes it clear why he said "Subscribe to PewDiePie". It's because he wants to create division and conflict; he wants the media to go after PewDiePie and his fans; and he wants to accelerate the culture war. Everything about the attack was cultivated for that end, from the choice of victims, to the weapons, to the people he references. He knows Felix won't approve of his actions, and he knows Felix wants nothing to do with him. He is associating himself with PewDiePie because he wants to see Felix condemned with that association; he wants the mainstream media to run with the narrative that PewDiePie and his supporters are altright, or fascist adjacent. If the media falls for the bait, then we'll see the murderer's ultimate plan fulfilled. Youtube, Twitter, and Facebook will likely be his unwitting pawns as they crackdown on problematic" people like PewDiePie. If this isn't addressed then the murders will have not only been a horrific crime, but they will have also been mission success from the perspective of the killers. They cannot be allowed to succeed, so it i:s actually important here that the regular combatants in the culture war lay down their weapons and refuse to fight over this. If they don't, then the killers will get exactly what they want.

I feel sad about the only thought that crossed my mind when I read this: "It's not a matter of the media taking the bait or not… it's a matter of how far they'll go with it"
