On Saturday, the young man traveled 322 kilometers, until buffalo, surveyed the surroundings of the Tops Friendly Market supermarket, in a predominantly African-American neighborhood of the city, and shot 11 black and two white people. Ten people died and the young man was arrested. The authorities classify it as a hate crime.

Why did Gendron act like this?

The manifesto, which like the one published by Brenton Tarrant, the Christchurch attacker, New Zealandin 2019, sought to serve as an “inspiration” to others – in fact Gendron was inspired by those attacks – reveals the ideology that led to Gendron to kill 10 people, thinking specifically of finishing off the blacks.

A Gendron he was motivated by a classic version of the White Replacement Theoryor Great Replacement Theory, according to which a globalist liberal elite is trying to destroy white nations by systematically replacing white populations with either Muslims, Africans or Latin Americans, depending on the case.

This theory was spread by the French thinker Renaud Camus in his book “The Great Replacement”, published in 2011, according to which the objective of this elite is none other than to replace that white, critical population, leaving it on the margins, in order to dominate homogeneous masses, without national identity, easily manipulated.

In Europefor example, is a speech defended by people like the journalist Eric Zemour and other figures, who affirm that the native European population decreases at the same time that the migrant population advances and that the point will come when “the European” will dissolve. For them, multiculturalism is the great enemy.

According to white replacement theorythe strategies employed by these “global elites” include the mass immigration of supposedly “high fertility” non-whites, and the encouragement of miscegenation between members of non-white races and whites. Gendron was deeply influenced by a series of recent mass murderers encouraged by the theory of white substitution, including the one perpetrated by Brenton Tarrant, whom Gendron openly acknowledges as his role model. In Christchurch (New Zealand), Tarrant massacred 51 people in a mosque in the name of white replacement theoryand also broadcast their actions live.

In the manifesto, Gendron acknowledges that his inspiration is Brenton Tarrant, perpetrator of the Christchurch massacre. The American’s manifesto begins similarly to Tarrant’s, denouncing the “white genocide” that will result from the supposed low fertility rates of white populations and the high fertility rates of non-white immigrants brought in to “replace” them.

However, according to Gendron, African-Americans are not smart enough to engineer the replacement of whites and the destruction of their civilization. The real actors in the replacement of whites, he asserts, are the Jews, a theme that occupies the next 29 pages of his manifesto.

Gendron accuses the Jews of creating “infighting” between people and races.

The Grand Replacement Theory has a bloody footprint. According to The Guardian, since 2011 has been the explicit motivation for more than 160 murdersincluding the killing of 77 people, mostly immigrants, by the Norwegian Anders Brevik in 2011; the mass murder of black churchgoers by Dylann Roof in Charleston, South Carolina, in 2015; the Tree of Life Synagogue massacre in 2018 and the murder of 23 people, mostly immigrants, in El Paso, Texas, in 2019; and the Christchurch attacks on two mosques that left 51 dead.

In USAone of the great promoters of the Great Replacement Theory is the political commentator Tucker Carlsonwho claims things like that American education is being infected by a pro-black ideology created by German Jewish Marxist intellectuals.
