The shooter was talking about, and planning, his attack months in advance on Discord. As soon as he started live streaming, he shared his links to his discord, and the glowies immediately took those links and started spreading them around, including creating threads on 4chan.
Read through this thread here https://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/377710317/ (Fair Warning: Theres some grotesque shit in this thread. Apparently the shooter also stabbed and beheaded a cat, theres images of that, as well as other footage of people dying (unrelated to the mass shooting))
Some interesting finds from his chat history:

Coordinating his list of potential targets with someone else? (3 months before...)

"Attack low security targets. Even though you might out gun a security guard or police man, they likely beat you in armor, training and numbers. Do not throw away your life on an unnecessarily dangerous target."
But Sir Patrick, Who shall I attack? And where?
WHO is Sir Patrick??? And why does his advice GLOW SO FUCKING MUCH? Straight up telling him to just commit a mass shooting and to shoot unarmed people, don't waste it on someone higher profile?
always comes out that they knew about the person, in most cases also visited the person a month or two before the incident.
canned response is typically they werent a danger at the time so couldnt do anything.
