“Disturbing” seems a little extreme considering the video is of an entirely different person, very obviously, who looks to be doing Joaquin Phoenix Joker cosplay.
I think it’s probably best to generally stick to official information. But especially for people who will believe literally anything they’re told on social media at face value without thinking about it at all.
As a reminder, along with trotting out some random person as the shooter (again), “social media” has gotten the name wrong, the names of family members wrong, victims wrong, etc.
There is nothing you need to learn about the shooter today that you can’t learn down the line. Certainly not so much that you just believe anything to say you learned something.
