I think it might have been more about the message a burning cybertruck, in front of a trump hotel, right by the trump sign, sends, than it was about the violence. Especially since the person is military trained and knew this wasn’t going to go all OKC federal building.
I mean the guy may have been at the end of his rope for multiple reasons. I mean fort bragg/liberty has really high levels of lead in their water, mold in their facilities, etc., plus whatever PTSD he may have had. Who knows. However, being trained, he should have known this wasn’t going to be some massive explosion, that it was mostly just going to set the truck on fire.
This is beside the point of course, but I just want to point out that while I do think renaming facilities that were named after confederate soldiers is overall a good idea, in Bragg’s case they should have made an exception. Through incompetence, he accomplished more for the union than for the confederacy.
I actually, genuinely thought it was an accidental fire.
Speaks to the shit reputation those shit trucks deservedly have. But also how dumb of a location for an intentional fire.
See that’s the thing.
Is a trunk/bed full of fireworks and gas average cyber truck stupidity or a real lazy attempt at arson/terrorism.

But suicide bombing… Wasn’t that a Saudi thing?
The car is self driving ffs

Kinda like the Finns calling their fire bottles “Molotov Cocktails” as a jab at Ambassador Vyacheslav Molotov.
You would think a little homemade thermite would be enough to reach the batteries and set them ablaze
yeah, lots of could have’s in this scenario. but who knows. maybe we will get more insight as time goes on.
Maybe he knew and is a misunderstood (trashy cyberpunk) “Burning Monk”
I wouldn’t be all that surprised honestly
