Agree. I think the media is going to try and spin it as a crazed lone wolf story, but in reality the proverbial shit is hitting the proverbial fan and they are scared
People (not me of course!) have been “joking” for a while now along the lines: “Hey. School shooter guys. if you’re gonna blow the top of your own head off anyway, why not do something positive for the world rather than being remembered as a child killer? You could be like that Serbian dude who blasted the Austrian prince. Doesn’t that sound cooler than being asshole number 400 who killed ten kids? Up to you!”
Not to be overly annoying but him triggering WWI is a bit of a “myth” for a bunch of reasons. The most easy of which is if all it took was some shitty prince and princess getting got in Sarajevo to make Europe start killing each other then WWI was going to happen eventually (which is true. Germany was deadset on forcing conflict). You also had the Russian Empire going to shit under incompetent Nicky. Ottoman empire imploding. Tons of other conflicts and systems failing that I can’tp recall from memory at the moment. One man in Sarajevo seems inconsequential (the prince or his assassin) in the large picture
“Great man (men) of history” and all that
I just respect the dude for not giving up. The story of how he managed to finally assassinate Ferdinand is pretty entertaining. His fate (Princep or whatever his name was… from memory) was far less entertaining. Ryan Ruth is on track for that fate it seems, and he didn’t even do the deed. Free Ryan Ruth

It was still a cool thing to do, just not a very cash money thing to do.
