Two "Youths" <i>(Wink)</i> Plotted Mass-Slaughter of Teenage Girls at Taylor Swift Concert in Germany

Two "Youths" (Wink) Plotted Mass-Slaughter of Teenage Girls at Taylor Swift Concert in Germany

As you know -- or maybe you don't; the media hasn't been eager to report on this -- the seventeen year old son of migrants from Rwanda just went on a stabbing spree at a Taylor-Swift-themed dance party in Southport, UK, killing three little girls -- aged 6, 7, and 9 -- and seriously wounding ten others.

The British courts and media withheld the identity of the killer. When people, quite understandably, guessed that this was a Muslim migrant -- because that is exactly whose identity is shielded in this kind of barbaric attack -- they then revealed he wasn't a migrant, but the son of migrants from Rwanda, so ha-ha you racist conspiracy-theorists.

A 17-year-old is scheduled to appear in court Thursday in connection with the mass stabbing at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class in England on Monday that left three girls dead and 10 injured.
The teen boy has been charged with the murders of Bebe King, Elsie Dot Stancombe and Alice Dasilva Aguiar, as well as 10 counts of attempted murder and possession of a bladed article, Merseyside Police said in a news release.
Police officials said they are not naming the boy because he is under 18 years old.
"Whilst these charges are a significant milestone within this investigation, this remains very much a live investigation and we continue to work with our partners from Lancashire Police and Counter Terrorism Policing North West (CTPNW)," Merseyside Police Chief Constable Serena Kennedy said in the release.
...
The violent attack occurred in the town of Southport, U.K. when police arrived to a "Taylor Swift event at a dance school" and "were shocked to find that multiple people, many of whom were children, had been subjected to a ferocious attack and had suffered serious injuries," Kennedy said Monday in a statement shared with USA TODAY.

Two children, ages 6 and 7, were killed and the death of another child, a 9-year-old girl, was announced on Tuesday. Ten other children suffered stab wounds in the attack, five of whom remained in critical condition as of Tuesday, along with two adults, according to British police.
"We believe that the adults who were injured were trying to protect the children at the time they were attacked," Kennedy said in a statement on Monday.
The mass stabbing has led to misinformation circulating online and public disturbances.

That couldn't possibly be because the Regime routinely hides the identities of killers when they are Muslims, migrants, or transgenders, could it?

And the "misinformation" here is... mistakenly thinking the "teen" is a migrant when, ha-ha racists, it's his parents who are the migrants.

"We may never know the attacker's motive," vowed Scotland Yard.

Well, these attacks on young girls are apparently a trend now among "youths" of certain inclinations. Two "teens" have been arrested in Germany for planning a mass-casualty suicide attack this time not at a Taylor-Swift-themed party, but an actual Taylor Swift concert.

A 19-year-old Austrian admitted to authorities that planned to kill himself and others at a Taylor Swift concert in Vienna.
The attack was to take place Thursday or Friday, officials said.
The teen was arrested by police Wednesday regarding the plot to target a Swift show at Ernst Happel Stadium.
The suspect planned an attack on fans, which involved "bladed weapons as well as the construction of a bomb," a press release provided by the Vienna Federal Ministry of the Interior on Thursday read.
A search of the suspect's home revealed "chemical substances, liquids, explosive and technical devices that could be used to manufacture explosives," Franz Ruf, director general for public security, said. Bomb-making instructions were also allegedly found.
The suspect, who was not named, confessed to the allegations against him as well as swore allegiance to ISIS, according to officials.
A 17-year-old was also arrested. That teen was employed by a facility management company that was to be on duty during Swift's concerts, officials said.
A 15-year-old was also detained and questioned by police. As of now, officials are not searching for any more suspects.

That 15-year-old is not being treated as a suspect -- but for some reason he knew a lot about this plot.

Now if you guess that these "youths" might just happen to be Muslims who have pledged their allegiance to ISIS and want to kill young Christian girls to appease their dark god, then you're a dirty far-right racist conspiracy-theorist.

Although, in this case, your racist far-right conspiracy theory would be 100% accurate.

But that's just dumb luck, of course.

The NYT begrudgingly reports, with John Sexton commenting:

The main suspect is a 19-year-old man who was radicalized online and swore an oath of allegiance to the Islamic State, Franz Ruf, the head of public safety in Austria, told a news conference on Thursday. Mr. Ruf said the suspect had confessed to the plans shortly after being arrested, giving the police a detailed insight into his intended acts, which included using explosives and weapons to kill as many concert attendees as possible.
Searching the man's home, where he lived with his parents, the police found explosives, timers, machetes and knives, Mr. Ruf said.
Apparently his goal was to kill as many infidels as possible before the two teens would inevitably be killed themselves. Unlike some of the plots we hear about, this one seems like it was pretty far along. The 19-year-old had quit his job to prepare for it and had a house full of weapons.

He was "clearly radicalized in the direction of the Islamic State and thinks it is right to kill infidels," Haijawi-Pirchner added.
The 19-year-old quit his job on July 25 and made the statement "that he still had big plans."
The foiled attack was planned for Thursday or Friday, according to Austria's interior minister, Gerhard Karner...
During a raid of the main suspect's home in Ternitz, south of Vienna, investigators found chemical substances and technical devices that indicated "concrete preparatory acts," said Franz Ruf, director general for public security at the Ministry of the Interior.

This reminds Sexton of the now-memoryholed attack on the Arianna Grande concert:

So one guy on the inside and one who planned to drive a car full of explosives into the venue. The plan has some similarities to the attack on Manchester Arena during an Ariana Grande concert in 2017. That attack killed 22 people when when another Islamic extremist, Salman Abedi, detonated a backpack full of explosives inside the foyer of the arena as the concert was ending. Islamic Terrorists have also carried out attacks on concert halls in Paris (2015) and Moscow (earlier this year).

What can you say. What can you say.

Except: Diversity is truly our strength.

That's all you can say. And I don't mean that rhetorically, I mean that legally: That's all you're legally permitted to say.

In the UK, they're now arresting people who... argue that maybe diversity is not our strength, or who merely have looked at social media posts about the "far right riots" in reaction to the latest slaughter of the innocents.

'We do have dedicated police officers who are scouring social media to look for this material, and then follow up with arrests.'

The director of public prosecutions of England and Wales warns that sharing online material of riots could be an offencehttps://t.co/PYaeP7gPAQ pic.twitter.com/kOGWDPrlyz

This is actually happening

More children have been slaughtered? Oh, well. Diversity is our strength, diversity is our strength, diversity is our strength.

Just keep saying it, like a prayer. Then you can slowly start throwing in an "Allahu Akbar" here and there to ease the transition.

Oh, and you can also repeat "The greatest terrorist threat is posed by far-right white supremacists," too. That pairs well with the "diversity is our strength" prayer.

93 Trump's "press conference" now billed as an "address to the press" Because of course it is. How many times are they gonna fall for this.

It means he's not taking questions from those "nasty" reporters. He's going to monologue for an hour and demand they broadcast it.

so this is his new strategy. no live rallies, that way they can't show his shitty attendance that Kamala is crushing, so instead he tries to get national audience with 'news' conference - which it is not.

Just listen to that tired old crap. He’s just meandering around in his fantasy world. Wonder how long they’ll let him go on.

It's trump's top 20:
- None of the bad things that happened would have happened if the election had been "called" differently.
- She's incompetent, she's crashing, bad job on border.
- Biden's election stolen from him. He's an angry angry man.
- Look forward to FOX 9/4, NBC 9/10, and ABC 9/25 debates that haven't been negotiated.
- She destroyed San Francisco
Turning off....

But I think killing children over it is going a little too far.

Musical Supremacism has to stop, it's a systemic problem that must be rooted out at it's source.

As a gesture towards healing I suggest that all movies and TV series with BPIOC as actors/creators going forward must use at least two Taylor Swift songs and two Arianna Grande songs, one of each must be the title theme or closing credits song.

This is only in the interest of being diverse, equitable and inclusive.

For who? For Western European countries, it allows them the underfund their military, knowing the US will defend them, and invest more into their social services.

For Eastern European nations, they get free hand-me-down equipment, training and protection.

For Turkey, they get access to NATO equipment and training, and get to walk the line between Russia, the Middle East, and NATO in whatever is their best interest...and they are certainly interested in expanding their influence, at least regionally.

For the US? No fucking idea.

184 Taylor Swift is a modest talent who originally was a decent songwriter to appeal to teenage angst and seemed wholesome to parents. She started off in country/pop and her 16 year old looks at the time were something different from the dirty, half naked slut looks on Aguilaras and Pinks videos. She now has had to transcend that to keep the record business and money machine, hence the swimsuit, knee boots, obscenities, and hate men lyrics. Like Shania Twain, neither can get off the stage and will do whatever it takes for press attention and ticket sales.

Selling songs to 12-year-old girls is very very very lucrative.

In her defense, I doubt it's her personally that's "doing this." She is as much a record company creation as any other pop act, if not more. The record company tells her what to sing, and she does it and cashes checks.

The idea that she is some special musical and songwriting talent -- that just happens to make the exact same song over and over again -- is hogwash.

Swift is milking a demographic with too much disposable cash?

I vaguely recall the left trying to make TicketMaster fees a political issue and thinking...they don't care about grocery prices but claim "middle class people" can't afford concert tickets? I guess if TicketMaster is doing some percentage fee that it could certainly add up.

Speaking of, I really do think there's a certain kink at the WEF / politician / "elite" level with causing pain in normal everyday people. Whether they're feeding some awful demon similar to how they want to maximize dead black babies I don't know, but there's no doubt they want suffering and misery.

That said, if you ever go to the ER for a kidney stone and they send you home after they do CAT scans and determine everything should end up okay, when they ask if you have pain medicine at home already your answer should always be no. I couldn't believe that the doctor when I went wouldn't send a patient home with at least two days of something.

If what I had was suitable then I wouldn't be spending hundreds of dollars to come to the ER, dumbass.

So the answer to that question should always be no.

299 I like to listen to artists like Thomas Bergersen - he generally gets "guest" singers while he does the music and he *regularly* finds female singers that blow someone like Swift out of the water.

And when I go look up the singers to see if I'd like more of their music I am generally disappointed

1) They don't know how to best use their voices
2) They don't know how to pick music that fits their voices

and I guess for a #3 they often don't look the part of a musical tart like Swift.

Which makes sense - just because you are a good singer doesn't mean you are a good songwriter, musical theorist, or marketer.

But again, Swift's musical talents just aren't that great. You can hear better singers then her on a regular basis at your local musical venues.

Thus, the rush by the RIAA and other music houses to limit\outright remove online music by any source that doesn't have their blessings.

RIAA knows the current schema for music is dead and dying, with zero hope of healing, due to prolific greed and hoarding rights away from the producers\creators. They only compounded it by going after Napster and those with large MP3 caches by individuals expecting extortion to comply. That turned a lot of music junkies (even bands and song writers) off to their fiefdoms.

When people call TS average, I always wonder if they go outside. I see a lot of attractive women at my gym, but TS is several levels above all of them. If I was wandering around downtown in some major city and someone as attractive as TS just happened to walk by, I would almost certainly do a double take. Even when I was at BYU, I don't remember seeing more than a couple dozen women as attractive as she is. I think one young lady on campus took third at Miss America.

Posted by: Diogenes

From before mentioned article.

Audacy, the No. 2 U.S. radio broadcaster behind iHeartMedia, recently filed for bankruptcy. The company owns 227 major radio stations in 27 states and 45 cities across the U.S. These include some of the biggest channels in New York; Memphis and Chattanooga, Tennessee; Denver; Washington D.C., Miami and Orlando, Florida; Atlanta; Baltimore, Maryland; Wichita, Kansas; Austin, Dallas and Houston, Texas; Richmond, Virginia; and many major cities across California as well as several other prominent markets across the U.S.

The bankruptcy plan, which would convert debt purchases into equity ownership, saw Soros purchase roughly 40% of Audacy's debt, according to The New York Post. While that isn't a true 51% controlling stake, it's likely to be one of the largest, if not the largest, stakes in the company potentially giving the Soros Fund effective control of Audacy, The Post reported in February.

445 When people call TS average, I always wonder if they go outside. I see a lot of attractive women at my gym, but TS is several levels above all of them. If I was wandering around downtown in some major city and someone as attractive as TS just happened to walk by, I would almost certainly do a double take. Even when I was at BYU, I don't remember seeing more than a couple dozen women as attractive as she is. I think one young lady on campus took third at Miss America.

In their defense, Taylor Swift is always made-up for the cameras.

MOST people in Hollywood aren't the 9 or 10s they appear to be. (Or, as is happening more and more, the 5s or 6s they appear to be).

Proper make-up can raise a woman's appearance by 2-3 points. Even shaping clothing can do some work on body type. The women still have to be somewhat in shape, but few are naturally as attractive as they appear.

Taylor Swift likely is very beautiful, but not as much as her public appearance shows.

Kids learn what they're fed to learn. I know some of my daughter's friends that are either into the new shit, k pop and that, swift.....but those that are into classic rock, then those that are into HEAVY metal thrash music.

It's what they were exposed to early. If they were raised by TV and Nickelodeon, they're into that genre of music.....

My dad like 60's and 70's rock and jazz. Therefore that's more my style. But I did get into other things later.

My daughter likes a lot of stuff, some I exposed her to and some she learned from her friends. The only thing she doesn't really like is country and I can't fault her there because anything she'd be exposed to is new country and that shit sucks.

Posted by: Piper at August 08, 2024 03:32 PM (p4NUW)

I actually have a theory that Zodiac signs may have once had some predictive power of personality.

As recently as 100 years ago, human diets were almost completely defined by the seasons. In the winter, you at stored food, in summer fresh food, etc...

People who were born at the same time would have therefore had almost the exact same nutrition profile of their pre-natal and early life.

THEREFORE, it's plausible that this "nurture" part of people's personality caused a strong correlation between people all born at certain times of the year, and, having noticed that, the ancients blamed the stars.

I don't think this can be tested now, but it's a fun "just-so" story.

No need for anyone to come out of tbe shadows; professional writers get paid, whether they get public credit or not.
