As usual, the first out of the gate with a claim that mass murderer Elliot Rodger was a “far leftist” is the renowned Dumbest Man on the Internet, Jim “Dim” Hoft: Another Leftist Killer➙ Santa Barbara Shooter Elliot Rodger Was Fan “Young Turks” Channel | the Gateway Pundit.

That’s right, folks — the entirety of Hoft’s “evidence” for this dim-witted semi-literate smear is that Rodger subscribed to the “Young Turks” channel on YouTube. That’s it.

Another far left mass murderer.

Last night 22 year-old Elliot Rodger went on a shooting spree in Santa Barbara killing six people.

Elliot Rodger posted a crazy video before his mass killing spree titled, “Elliot Rodger Retribution”.

And, Elliot Rodger was a fan of the far left “Young Turks” YouTube Channel.

The Young Turks was one of his favorited channels.

The Young Turk describes itself as “a young progressive or insurgent member of an institution.”

The host of the channel Cenk Uygur is a far left political activist and former MSNBC host.

Remember: this is the blogger who won the “Accuracy in Media” award at CPAC last year.

I’m not going to claim the opposite, that Rodger was a right winger, because it’s pretty clear he was mainly driven by extreme misogyny and malignant narcissism. But come to think of it, that also describes Jim Hoft and his audience amazingly well.
