I'd add that when you live in a society where it's extremely difficult to ignore or downplay the inherent contempt built in to the system..even if you're as committed to that cause as good ole kyle was to his own, combined with the overt influence of white supremacy as an organizing principle in allegedly civil politics...
...it's not so much that the table has been tilted, as that the cloth has been ripped off scattering the contents all over the walls, the table flipped over, and the building it was in burnt to the ground.
Even a deep and genuine remorse for the loss of life at ones own hands is incapable of preventing the inevitable in that scenario. You stuff it down, lock and load, and watch your lanes. You can hate yourself later at the bottom of a bottle.
In fact, let's workshop a potential future...where predators and reapers and darkstars and whoever knows what else they've come up with since I processed out are quietly circling over suburbia, looking for people and crowds or people in crowds flashing the ok sign precisely because nazi shitstains appropriated it.
When that hellfire slams into the ground, or you hear a cannon peel out, are we all going to be standing there asking ourselves "what is a white supremacist, anyway, how can we even know that a white supremacist is a white supremacist, what if calling white supremacists white supremacists leads to social division, what if convicting white supremacists who also happen to be murderers leads to race riots?"
Nope. We'll be looking for cover, because what we really don't know are the parameters for LOS obstruction... because google (or, who the fuck knows, it's the future..so facebook..excuse me..meta) came up with the recognition algorithm.
