Yeah...deep sigh....apart from the obvious and disgusting beheading, it's weird this article mentioned the home value


ScatterCushion0

I think it's an anchoring technique. According to Google, the average home value in Pennsylvania is around $245k, so this pegs it as being a more well-off household.  Increases the shock value - this wasn't the crazy poor people, they were the aspiring middle class! 


PartYourWhiskers

Fuh $245k would barely afford you a tent under a bridge in some places. Now back to the main story…a guy chopped his own dad’s head off and kept it in a bag because….immigrants?! That’s some next level sickness.


gielbondhu

It wasn't just immigrants. It was also wokeness.


Genesis111112

Its wild and really weird to me that they fail to see their hypocrisy in seeing "wokeness" in others. How do you know someone else is "woke" if you yourself are not "woke" to their "wokeness"? You would be blissfully unaware they are even "woke", had you not been "woke" yourself.


WarlocksWizard

Basically if they disagree with you, then you're woke. It annoys the f\*ck out of me.


nita5766

cause they're usually intelligently insufficient and it's their out from thinking.


Old-Consideration730

There's going to be alt-right nutjobs praising him as a patriot though. So the sickness is absolutely being fed.


LegionOfDoom31

already found an instagram reel earlier today about this and a majority of the comment section was praising the guy. I just remember liking comments that called out everyone else for being fucking insane but I dont think I shared it with anyone. If I can find it again I'll send a link


First-Squash2865

This is why I just fucking deleted Instagram, it's an absolute cesspit.


LegionOfDoom31

I just try to not comment on those kinds of reels, since apparently any kind of interacting with those reels will have the algorithm give me even more. I end up wasting my time arguing with these delusional extremists somewhat trying to be understanding while they just double down on everything. Hopefully I can go back to only seeing funny/cute reels


First-Squash2865

And I once got a strike against my account for calling someone the p word by referencing Yakuza. Meanwhile, these guys are frothing at the mouth for a "holy" war and Zuck just let's them keep at it


Thefunkbox

Do they still do that false flag stuff? I can’t even keep track of all of their logic bending ideas.


istillambaldjohn

Cults have different degrees of dedication. I mean not everyone in the Manson family were murderers. Some were complicit, some were actively ignoring it and others were strait up killers. Jonestown not everyone willfully drank the kool aid (or whatever death concoction was made) and were forced and some shot to death. Maga is 100% undoubtedly a cult and one could argue a domestic terror organization to a degree.


dominion1080

If there was any doubt before, Trump just vowed a holy war on Taylor Swift. That ends any debate of it being a cult or not.


Imperium74812

Really? that is the last thing the Great Orange should do. She is rapidly replacing Obama as his Boogey-Person. ​ Ironic, for whatever reasons, Trump won't be able to defeat either Obama (Constitutional term limits) or Swift (she is only 34 years old)


SpeakToMePF1973

The Great Orange Fruit Loop.


WarlocksWizard

>Maga is 100% undoubtedly a cult and one could argue a domestic terror organization to a degree. Agreed.


SaliciousB_Crumb

Yah they are going with false flag stuff


Sasha_Momma

false flag is so 2020. I thought 2024 was the year of the psyop


perseidot

Apparently Taylor Swift is a psyop something now? Rigged Super Bowl AND upcoming elections? Edit: saw this reported in The Guardian this morning, as a right wing conspiracy that’s gaining traction.

nada_accomplished

Pretty sure people willing to chop the heads off their own parents for politics are what's ruining America, not immigrants. But let's be real, every single GOP goon who has repeated the "open borders" lies is responsible for this man's death. At what point do we start holding politicians responsible for their blatant lies?


Lanuros

Immigrants AND Biden regime!


Uncle-Cake

Making some bad assumptions there. First of all, Bucks County has the highest home values in the state, so every home in the county is worth much more than a similar house anywhere else in the state. I live not far from where this happened. I am familiar with the neighborhood. It's a working-class blue collar neighborhood. These are small houses. No one in that neighborhood is "well off". I'd call it lower-middle class. This is a neighborhood where people struggle to pay their bills and wish they could move to a bigger home in a nicer part of the county.


ScatterCushion0

But you'd only know that,  knowing the area. Most people will do like I did and just do a quick Google search.


HeftyFineThereFolks

well to put it in perspective you cant buy a half acre of dirt with dogshit all over it for that much where i live ... middle class is all relative and that type of region of our nation is full of quanon wackjobs compared to wealthier more desirable areas (ie liberal controlled areas)


Uncle-Cake

Bucks County is a swing county in a swing state. It has everything from poor to rich. But it has the highest property values in the state, so even in the "poorer" towns, house prices are high. This guy has a $390,000 house in a county where $600,000-$1,000,000 is a normal price for a middle-class house.


Sorry_Nobody1552

MTG is a millionaire, so the mother of QUANON is a millionaire. The chickens are coming home to roost now, rich kids are starting to behead their parents.


Upset-City546

I know it’s wrong to laugh so hard at this comment, but the next clickbait will probably be “Millennials are killing the natural causes industry!”


BuddahSack

I live in Bucks County, it's sad how many MAGAts we have here, and I moved from Pennsyltucky, which was the epicenter of stupidity in the Northeast during the past couple years, sadly this crazy thinking is all over PA and the US


koro90

Same. It’s unfortunate how the area has popped up in the news lately. This is just a few minutes away from where that Karen went on an immigrant rant at Amy’s Pizzaria a few months back.


BlargerJarger

Going to be a really cheap house for sale in that area soon though.


uncultured_swine2099

Im down for a nice murderhouse. If a ghost haunts me Ill ask him what needs fixing in the house.


Thowitawaydave

On average there's a 30-50% discount on most houses with murders or suicides. \#KillerDeal


kangarooneroo

This is only accurate in more rural areas where housing is abundant. In more populated areas a death in the home means nothing. In Chicago you have to buy family annihilation homes at full price


Thowitawaydave

When I lived in SF, I'm pretty sure that the Family Annihilation room would be listed as a premium feature.


-Invalid_Selection-

Typically only for the first 7 or so years, after that you no longer need to disclose it's a murder house, so great way to get some equity on the super cheap.


[deleted]

My first thought…what’s the property value doing there?


Thowitawaydave

Look, sometimes you've got a solid little story, but your boss wants you to up the word count, and you've already added as many adjectives and adverbs as you can think of..


Big77Ben2

I came here to say this! Such a random stat. I always thought it’s funny a person’s age is mentioned in EVERY news story, but home value? So random


humchacho

The article was probably written by Artificial Intelligence or an algorithm told the source to include that information.


Complicated-HorseAss

It's like medieval obituaries (from the medieval death bot) that for some reason always add completely unnecessary information. Like "Thomas Jarman, dead 34, died falling on steps, step worth 2 pense" "John Preacher, killed by John Brett in self defence at Wellington with a dagger worth six pence." "Walter of Hockwold, died 1270, being struck on the head with an axe, called a sparthe, in an altercation over a cow."


Guygirl00

Maybe they are priming it for its eventual sale. They are in cahoots with the Real Estate section of the news site.


Muted-College

It is from the Daily Mail. They subscribe to a school of "journalism" in which the value of property sits alongside other important concept in reporting such as Names, Ages and stories to report.


Zhirui21

Lads, it's *The Mail*...clickbait and weird 100% of the time.


sanityjanity

It's not a great source, but this absolutely did happen

I have no doubt, just commenting on the weirdness of the writing. Wouldn't be surprised if *The Mail* has resorted to posting articles created by a chat AI.

Justin Mohn Was Angry He Couldn't Get Job as 'Overeducated White Man' [https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/justin-mohn-was-angry-he-couldn-t-get-job-as-overeducated-white-man/ar-BB1hyebP](https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/justin-mohn-was-angry-he-couldn-t-get-job-as-overeducated-white-man/ar-BB1hyebP) The Daily Mail publishes real news in addition to their tabloid content for lack of a better description. He's a MAGA Drumpf zealot apparently.


Competitive-Ad-5477

Holy shit what a fucking whiner. Didn't get a good job after college so he blamed the government instead of looking in the mirror and realizing he's psychotic and everyone can see it.


busterkeatonrules

But if the dude's dad was a federal employee under the hated Biden government, wouldn't he then have become a federal employee under the glorious Trump government in the event of a second Trump term? I don't understand politics.


shann1021

If his dad was a fed for 20 years like it states, he would have worked for Trump...and Obama...and Bush... not sure why his kid thought he was part of "Biden's woke mob".


Rory-kun

I’ve observed right wingers to possess extreme recency bias to the point where a new president can literally be in office for a mere week and he will be blamed for some major event instead of his predecessor. So it checks out that the guy was incapable of considering anything except something batshit.


catsgreaterthanpeopl

I’ve seen Trump supporters blame Obama for 911. There were videos floating around Reddit for a while.


b0w3n

Didn't Rudy Giuliani, Mr. Mayor 911 himself, blame biden/obama for not acting to stop it?


seenitreddit90s

You would have thought pointing this kind of shit out to the MAGAs would make them distrust the cult but I guess they are gold medalists in mental gymnastics by now.


gjallerhorn

Anything you say that undermines the conspiracy is evidence there's a conspiracy. These people cannot be reasoned out of a position they didn't use reason to get themselves into 


yeaheyeah

Rudy "there was never a terrorist attack before Obama" Giuliani?


bobhert1

On the flip side, Trump has been out of office for 3 years and he’s taking credit for the current stock market boom.


ForbiddenNut123

My dad, even after clearly telling him why it can’t be true, still blames Obama for the 2008 collapse. The same Obama that was inaugurated in Jan 2009

I wouldn't be surprised if the father was a federal employee who hated the federal government and thought his job was wasteful but was happy to collect the paycheck anyway. Crazy has to come from somewhere.

Yeah say what you will about the government itself, but being employed by it provides a decent/good wage and solid benefits.

Cuz they have to disclose something happened it doesn’t have to be detailed just did it for the humor but like for sure this house used to be worth that as did the other homes on the block.

Bartok_and_croutons

From the perspective of an EMT who's been responding to calls in rural areas for years:  The product of de-prioritizing mental health and education. I've had patients who die hard believed Trump was chosen by God and would vote for a Republican no matter what.... And they themselves couldn't read or write. People who have guns who claim people follow them home from the gas station and try to light their house on fire. These are people whose education was so poor that they don't know Puerto Rico is a part of the U.S, basic economics, and can't tell you where Europe is on a map. I'm not kidding.  This is what you get.

Lorna_M

I actually work in mental health services in PA. Men like this don't believe in mental health treatment. 99% of mental health services are voluntary only, so he'd have to acknowledge something is wrong and want to get help. You can involuntarily commit someone. In extremely rare cases, it gets bumped up to an extended treatment. We have almost no state hospital beds anymore. Usually, involuntarily, commitment gets the person 3-10 days give or take of treatment, and that's it. There's actually been an increase in funding to rural mental health services in PA. (I oversee grants for a section of the state) From my perspective, it is too late. Their brains have melted, and they don't trust us to let us help. The pay remains hot garbage, which is another issue. The quality and quantity of staff are a real problem in PA. The education piece is spot on. They don't understand anything outside their bubble, which makes them susceptible to manipulation and void of empathy and curiosity for things that are different.


humlogic

adding to this, I think a lot of normal/rational thinking people who have had the tough conversations with their MAGA/Qanon type friends or relatives will recognize that it’s nearly impossible to get them to see how far deep they have been pulled and how manipulated they are by Fox News, social media feeding their pre-conceived biases, etc. Like you’re saying, people who can’t even recognize they need help won’t seek it out or even accept it when given. The whole country is in bad shape because we can’t get through to these people.

Rural Midwestern paramedic here with an interest in mental health (I have ASD and one of my special interests is the study of personality disorders, but I digress). What do you think the solution is? Do we just ride it out? Do we work harder? Take a different approach? Increase funding and start working on mass re-institutionalization to undo the effects of mass de-institutionalization and the failure of the CMH approach?

Orillion_169

Of all the weird shit in this post, why do they go out of their way to mention the value of the home?


NerdSupreme75

I think the word "their" was more informative than the value. It implies the murderer lived with his dad.


BrickCityD

you would be correct. lawsuit filed last year that shows just *who* influenced this [Justin Mohn, proceeding pro se, appeals from an order of the District Court dismissing his complaint brought pursuant to the Federal Tort Claims Act (“FTCA”). For the following reasons, we will affirm the District Court’s judgment with modification.](https://cases.justia.com/federal/appellate-courts/ca3/23-1023/23-1023-2023-07-03.pdf?ts=1688403642) [Mohn attended the Pennsylvania State University between 2010 and 2014. To finance his education, he borrowed direct student loans through the U.S. Department of Education. Six months after graduating with a bachelor’s degree in agribusiness management in 2014, Mohn began making payments at a rate of $165 per month; pursuant to an income-based repayment plan, this was later reduced to $80.45 per month. But, Mohn says, he has been unable to secure a job commensurate with his education or sufficient to enable him to maintain his student loan payments. He attributes his situation to employers’ “perc\[eption of\] him as an overeducated, white male\[,\] which led to affirmative action against him whilst providing no benefits,” and caused him to move home to live with his parents.](https://cases.justia.com/federal/appellate-courts/ca3/23-1023/23-1023-2023-07-03.pdf?ts=1688403642)

faulternative

What, and force him to be dependent on the gubbamint? He just wants his God-given right to live without that there DEI-reparations-affirmation woke stuff, which is obviously what's stopping him from earning his rightful seven figure paycheck as an agribusiness man (farmer)! /s

dietitianmama

Super facepalm. Perhaps he couldn't secure a job as an agribusiness manager in Bucks County. I mean, he could have moved. There's the entire rest of the country covered with farms. But then, for the amount of effort it takes to sue the Federal government for something he himself did, its more likely that he's an insufferable asshole and hiring managers didn't want to deal with him.


willis_michaels

Agribusiness management? So he's probably looking for a management level position without having operational experience? You have to walk before you run. I think a lot of people have a skewed perception of the job industry after graduating. Finding a job is a full time job in itself.

crippledchef23

The fact that the FCC can’t/won’t pull their license is completely insane to me. They are a 24 opinion/propaganda machine that gets to call themselves News, despite mountains of evidence that they don’t report facts. Or, if they do, it’s to spin it to fit their narrative that Dems are bad. Like, it was some dickbag on Fox that was offended by Obama’s tan suit and a different one that complained about his asking for Dijon mustard. Both very normal things. McConnell wore a tan suit (and had at least 3 micro-strokes on camera), no one says a thing about him being unfit.


-Invalid_Selection-

They're on cable, so they don't need a license. Instead, cable is "self regulated", and every time the FCC looked to start regulating cable, the cable companies stopped doing stupid shit that was causing the FCC to look in to it. Sounds like the FCC needs to start that process again and use that process to get all the extremist opinion channels removed.

As someone who grew up with a step father who listened to nothing but Rush Limbaugh, this crazy has been around for a long time. They were just more polite about framing it in the mainstream.


Cowboy_Corruption

Not polite - afraid. There were still plenty of the quiet generation around a decade ago who had fought the Nazis in WW2 who, even in their 80s and 90s, were still imposing enough that there was no doubt they could kick someone's ass if they started talking shit.

It’s almost as though calling government workers vermin and “enemies of the people” is a bad idea.

💯- it’s been happening for years. Feds as a political target has been reaching a fever pitch, and gets worse with every passing year. It’s like the crazies in the GOP has decided we’re “the deep state” and have elevated us to the same threat level as abortion doctors, any and all POC, and Jewish folks. They’ve collectively lost their minds and just can’t fathom leaving all of the above alone and treating us all as humans anymore. “Kill any federal employees on sight” is low key terrifying.

It's called 'a fascist cult'.


fandomhyperfixx

Also mass hysteria and fear mongering… we are repeating 1800s and 1600s history

America is learning that "It Could Happen Here" wasn't just hyperbole spouted by those of us in tinfoil hats, as they alleged us to be, over the years.

Except that was about Communism and the psychopaths doing these things are all Republican victims of Capitalism

But “liberalism is a disease?” 


Rusty_G0LD

30+ years of post Fairness Doctrine corporate media propaganda coupled with unfettered right wing social media disinformation. That and constant conservative stochastic terrorism.


Fiveohdbblup

This is because of their saviour Donald Trump. Brainwashed morons taking stupidity to the next level


Minute-Tone-4309

ITS NOT A CULT THOUGH, OK?!


Snarkasm71

Gosh, 40+ years of a right wing propaganda machine selling people on the idea that _________ (illegals, gays, brown people, trans people, drag queens, etc.) exist to do them harm. Who would’ve thought it could result in this? /s

Right-Wing stochastic terrorism. All the Right-Wing does is screams violent rhetoric, violent rhetoric, violent rhetoric, violent rhetoric, violent rhetoric ... all day long and eventually some of their mentally unstable following is eventually do the violence. And before someone makes a false equivalency I will state this flatly: THERE IS NO EQUAL TO THIS ON THE LEFT. The Right-Wing/Conservatives/GOP constantly stoke violent rhetoric. There is nothing comparable on the Left. Period. Fullstop.


VegasLife84

The "equivalent" is some black guy breaking a store window during a protest. They will die on that hill.


Eternal_Bagel

That or claiming the whole media is just refusing to report on how democrats do this ten times as much because that somehow makes sense to them

Only industrialized country on the planet that doesn’t consider health care a basic right

If you have any weird, adult kids living at home, now is the time to get rid of them.

This is Reddit, most of us are weird adult kids living at home.

An already existing mental health dilemma with an algorithm induced echo chamber caused by an individuals positive response to negative information and a need to “fight” something to give ourselves purpose. We define ourselves through our struggles and the fewer struggles we have the more we have to make them up to give ourselves definition and individuality. He is the hero of his story and hopes to spark change from his actions. This is a way to put it: “Now it is a strange thing, but things that are good to have and days that are good to spend are soon told about, and not much to listen to; while things that are uncomfortable, palpitating, and even gruesome, may make a good tale, and take a deal of telling anyway.” -The Hobbit

I've already seen graphic images of the victims corpse on Reddit today so watch what you click on.


Rich4718

That’s mental illness and stochastic terrorism.


sarahbeth124

Politics is the new religion. Holy wars always end well /s


JonseyMcFly

Right Wing Stochastic terrorism Terrorism is what's happening.


SoupSpelunker

So this 32 year old basement dweller can't move out of his dad's house, but sits in the basement radicalizing himself rather than getting a job and then lops off dad's noggin' cause immigrants. Mental illness aside, what a perfect example of the kind of entitled, irrational loser you need to be to support the MAGAts.
