As the world digests the alleged manifesto of the Charleston church shooting suspect, the white supremacist document is finding a sympathetic ear in the depths of Reddit's racist /r/coontown community.
The diatribe wanders from a discussion of the "historical lies, exaggerations, and myths" of slavery to outlining disdain for Latinos and Jews. It concludes by saying, "we have no skinheads, no real KKK, no one doing anything but talking on the internet. Well someone has to have the bravery to take it to the real world, and I guess that has to be me."
/r/coontown's discussion on the manifesto has elicited a degree of sympathy and understanding from the subreddit's members.

"If this is the real deal...he's no different from me, really," wrote one redditor that received dozens of upvotes. "Except for that shooting up a church thing, that is."
