Summary

Matthew Livelsberger, a 37-year-old decorated U.S. Army special forces veteran, died by suicide on New Year’s Day inside a Tesla Cybertruck that exploded outside the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas.

Livelsberger, who struggled with PTSD, brain injuries, and personal challenges, left writings describing the U.S. as “terminally ill” but emphasized his act was “not a terrorist attack.”

His ex-girlfriend, Alicia Arritt, shared their final texts, revealing no warning signs of his plans.

What a clickbaity article title. He said that about how he enjoyed driving a fucking Cybertruck. Way to present things out of context.

No. Batman would have put multiple personnel in the hospital, broke Jr's wrist and told him to lay off the coke, backhanded Stephen Miller and dropped incriminating evidence about whatever that shit head nazi is up to, make Vance sob like the bitch he is, and given Trump a heart attack by suddenly appearing next to him after silently dishing out naps to the secret service.

You, sir, were a disillusioned ex-solider who got dumped while simultaneously figuring out that the whole thing is a sham designed to trick dumb racists like you to vote for billionaires to carve our great country into peices to have kingdoms again.

Dumb ass.

Gotta cut him some slack for the brain injuries and mental health issues though, at least he didn't pull a bourbon street.

She said he didn’t have particularly strong political views

How do you know he voted for billionaires? How do you know he was a "dumb racist?" His ex-girlfriend said he was a "super smart guy." Sounds like he had head injuries that caused him headaches and made it difficult for him to concentrate.

Because he enjoyed the flavor of trumps cock.

You can’t be a Trump supporter without being a racist.

Yeah, it's just like that time Batman shot himself and caught on fire!

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

I get it. I've had a lot of jobs where I felt like a batman myself. And I wasn't even in the military.
