And the stupid thing is, the man said he did all that shit BECAUSE he hated Trump and I’m like….what the fuck?

He hates Trump, so he attempted to make Trump look bad by associating him with Hitler and crazy people who shout about Hitler during plays. It’s called a false flag, when somebody essentially tries to frame a certain demographic of doing something. There have been cases where Jewish people wrote anti-semitic insults on the side of a synagogue, or black people burning down a black church. It benefits people politically to be seen as persecuted and discriminated against, so when nobody is actually doing it, sometimes they’ll do it themselves.

And it even still works in this case, because the media will spread around the fact that somebody shouted “Heil Trump” in a theater because headlines, but only a fraction of the people who see the initial headline will ever learn that the person who actually committed it is somebody who’s anti-Trump, so Trump supporters still get the flak for it. Political dishonesty is profitable if your audience doesn’t double-check things.
