For those unaware, on December 14, 2012 a 20 year old man named Adam Lanza shot his way into Sandy Hook Elementary school, killing 27 people including 20 children, 6 staff members, and his own mother before killing himself. It is known as one of the most tragic and deadly mass shootings in American history, and legal proceedings still follow the families to this day.

Throughout the investigation however, no clear motive was found. They found evidence that he researched shootings, found that he had planned a suicide and found forum posts/profiles/audio called confirmed to be him, but none could offer a clear insight onto why he would commit such a heinous act.

That is until mid last year, where a YouTube user under the name “CulturalPhilistine” was uncovered with videos dated all the way up to the January preceding the attack. The voice, mannerisms, terminology, ideologies, and views on children are identical to what is known about Adam Lanza. He even quotes posts he’s known to have made, talks about suicide, refers to himself by his username on other forums, and clearly explains his motive for one of the deadliest mass shootings ever committed:

“You're the one who wants to rape children, I'm the one who wants to save them from a life of suffering you want to impose on them. You see them as your property and I want to free them. I don't want to see children as adults, I dont want to see anyone as adults because I don’t want there to be a system that perpetuates this abuse. If you care so much about the damage of children then why advocate that they live?

This matches 100% perfectly with a tip given to the FBI by one of his online friends, stating that he had an unhealthy obsession with children and that he wanted to save them from a corrupt society, and that the only way he knew how was that they don’t live at all.

This basically solves one of the biggest 9 year mysteries for a murder motive ever conceived, but I’m barely seeing anything about it online. Does anyone know why that is??

  • Edit: just one more further piece of proof, he also reads Adam Lanza’s essay 5 years before it was officially released to the public.
  • Edit 2: his channel is gone, and has been for 8 months. It was terminated by YouTube. Any and all versions on the internet now are reuploads. Hope that clears up any confusion
