#1 Norwegian Utøya shooter's manifesto

Post by Norseman »

I found it online it's called 2083 - A European Declaration of Independence. I should warn you that this thing is huge, absolutely huge. However I thought that people might be interested in it in order to get some idea of why he did what he did.

I wouldn't exactly call it huge (at least not where file size is concerned) but it's definitely long :shock:

If you are in the know then the following will work: Eurabia, traditional religion (conversion to Catholicism recommended), traison de clercs, and the abolition of sociology. It is pretty much a massive anti-Islamization manifesto, he hits all of their talking points, with one exception. He suggests that violence should be used now, not in a hypothetical future.

Basic far-right wing tripe about the oncoming storm of Muslims and Marxism, and how he is part of a Resistance which will use violence to route them.

A storm that, somehow, nobody but them has noticed. And if the storm is so vast and inevitable, how exactly are a handful of lunatics with little in the way of resources going to stop it?

Sorry. My bad. Using logic again.

BTW here's a Norwegian newspaper giving an accurate description of the crazy uniform that he wanted to wear (LINK). IT is apparently also described in his manifesto.

Hey that's a Marine Corp.... HANDS OFF MY BLUES ASSHOLE.

The fucking nerve!

And he's using US ribbons? An ARMY UNIT AWARD!?! Now that's just fucking insulting! Bad enough he would steal our uniform and get his child murdering crazy all over it but he has to slaver it in decorations from the Navy, Airforce and Army!?! He didn't even earn those! No one gives ribbons out for being a sick child murdering stain on humanity! Son of Bitch, I'd beat him for his uniform sins never mind his actual crimes.

Wait... Is that a fucking Iron Cross on the Marine... Fucking Hell it gets worse every time I look.

To be honest I'd be happier if all he did was brutalize innocent Marine uniforms. But in addition to everything else he did... It makes him venal in addition to being a sick twisted fuck.

I love the cross and skull patch. Because, you know, for some people the SS death's head just isn't evil looking enough. Pity he didn't go all the way and use a patch with a rat's anus.

Also, the snipets I've heard have made it clear this dude has serious issues with egotism and vanity.

It's not that I'm unforgiving, it's that most of the people who wrong me are unrepentant assholes.

New sig material right there. You fucking earned this one.

Let's see... martyr complex, complete with the "them people over thar're oppressin' us, hyuck" mindset; military masturbatory fetish, and raw fear of anything different from what he considers his ideal.

Yeah, sounds like a modern "conservative" to me.

I have "conservative" in quotes because it's fucking nothing like the actual definition of conservatism Buckley used, but I'm preaching to the choir on that one.

To those people "conservative" is just a word that identifies their perceived in group, not a political philosophy they understand and embrace. Reactionary is much better description: they violently react against almost everything positive Western society has managed to accomplish in the last century.

It was said in reference to your earlier rant on modern conservatives on this very forum.

I've honestly reached the belief that conservatism as a political philosophy and intellectual school of thought is dead.

We've gone from Edmund Burke and Buckley to Newt, Palin and the tea party. Thought, consideration and careful weighing have been drowned under an Jacksonian celebration of mediocrity and vilification of intelligence. We've gone from I regret that I have but one life to give for my country and the ideals put forth by Jefferson and others to Don't Tax Me Bro. In short the conservative movement in America has abandoned everything in favor of the Baby Boomers one constant motto "me, Me, ME!"

Frankly the European movements seem even worse if that's possible, drowning in racial politics chasing after moonbeams of purity and traditionalism for what? Their programs do nothing to solve the problems. Sure you threw out of the darkies and made your nations homogenius (HA!) again in your own mind but will that solve any of the problems facing Europe? The right wing governments currently in power in Austria and Switzerland just to name drop a bit haven't actually improved anything they've just made people feel better by swinging at a scapegoat.

The crosses on his neck (not sure what bling in that position is called) are just maltese crosses that cost £20 for a pair. The three bigger medals beneath the ribbons are Freemason awards used for the higher orders in the Scottish Rite I think.
