I think it might be helpful if internet searches operated in terms of 'most factual' and 'most credible' coming up first instead of 'most popular'.
Roof's journey evidently started when he searched for black on white crime statistics. Naturally, the first things that come up are heavily biased and throw nuance out the window. Sites like The Council of Conservative Citizens (formerly Council of White Citizens, iirc), then most likely Stormfront (given his middle name, maybe that came first). Roof would still have been a racist without that kind of influence, but I have some doubt that he would still have become a murderer.

I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
