A Florida man accused of posting online threats to carry out mass violence has been arrested and charged with making an interstate threat and a weapon violation, federal court records show.
Alexander Lightner, 26, of Venice, Florida, allegedly posted comments online that were “intended to convey the message that he was planning to conduct a racially or ethnically motivated mass casualty event,” according to an affidavit.
He was interviewed by FBI agents from the bureau’s Tampa Field Office a week later on January 5, and law enforcement executed a search warrant at Lightner’s home before he was arrested.

While searching Lightner’s home, FBI agents found an unlawful firearm suppressor in a laundry hamper of a bedroom he shared with his brother and “propaganda regarding white supremacist and accelerationist ideology in Lightner’s bedroom,” according to court records.
Sounds like a philosophy created to suit the crowd who is cheering on the next civil war.
Combined with a lot of defeatist cope. “I don’t need to stay politically active, I’m just going to let it all burn down and build back from the ashes! I’m smart, not broken and lazy!”
Definitely a lot of the rugged individualism as if they could recreate an electrical generator after the fall.
