I don't believe that, but you're entitled to your opinion.

there's no evidence to support either claim. Its a pointless dicussion as such.

He shot people point blank to kill them. How is that any different from how E&D killed Isaiah or Kyle? Would it really make a big difference to you if Lanza killed them several years later?

Eric and Dylan's shadow has been cast over every single shooter. Was it for the amount they hurt? No. It was because they are often seen as the first. People who emulate them disgust me, they lack creativity. Who were Eric and Dylan emulating? Some man from Afghanistan has ended more than all of them combined, so if that's their reasoning; it's quite poor.

I agree with that. Columbine still seems to be the golden standard that other shooters mostly go by.

I don't think they'd admire anyone but Breivik. He was cold, calculated, planned everything and executed everything the way he wanted to. He blew up a building that killed people, and then went ahead and hijacked an island where he killed a lot of people that were their age. He basically did what they wanted to do, and did it well.
I think they'd see him as an idol, and be alright with not having done what he did since he was/is older. All the rest they would see as pathetic, because they're so much like them. They loathed themselves, and would loathe them too. If anything, they'd be impressed with Cho's kill count, but still feel superior because they are the ones that "popularized" shootings, and have a cult following.
In my opinion, no matter what they would always believe they were better, unless they regretted the shooting and killings.

It would be amusing to me to see how poor E&D's understanding of Breivik's politics were.
It would be REALLY REALLY amusing to me to see what they'd think of how you get a 21 year vacation in a glorified college dorm room over there if you kill 77 people. I can hear Eric choking on his fly CD already.

Most likely because his high death and injury count would be something they would have wanted, so maybe a little jealous as well.

Someone mentioned that Adam only talked to his Mother in emails? Didn't they live in the same house? I wonder why he did that.
Anyway, I don't think they would have liked Adam or Randy. Especially Randy because of the whole "ghost girlfriend" thing.
I think Eric would have been able to relate to Elliot the most. The whole outcast not being able to find a girlfriend thing. And Elliot was similar to Eric appearance wise.
I don't think Dylan would have really cared about any of them one way or the other. He was just glad it was finally over and he could die. Dylan was just looking for a way to get out of life.
I do think Eric may have been impressed with Stephen Paddock though. Just because of how that went down. How Paddock was able to pull it off and kill so many people. Similar to how he was impressed with McVeigh but on a smaller scale.
I don't think Eric would have much respect for the ones who didn't commit suicide afterward. Like James Holmes and Nikolas Cruz. And definitely, a no to Cruz because he admitted to killing animals and I think Eric liked animals. He made comments about them being the only ones worthy enough for this planet.
With Adam, the killing little kids is obvious but Adam also killed his Mother and I think Eric really cared for and loved his Mother. I think if Eric felt bad for anyone out of this whole thing, it would have been her.
And I really don't know what Eric would have thought of Cho. Cho was pretty much the 1st copycat that had a higher kill count than Columbine. I think Eric would have liked that Cho actually sent his videos and pictures to the media. Eric probably regrets not doing that himself.
So I think the one he would have disliked the most is Randy. The one he could relate to the most is Elliot and the one he is impressed by the most is Stephen Paddock.

Basing on Dylan's journal, he'd find Andrew Blaze super-relatable. Like she combines spiritual delusions similar to Dylan's and Eric-style anger.

Not like Dylan was anything other than a 'rich privileged kid'. The fact taht Dylan allowed Eric to bash rich kids around him just shows how much Dylan was willing to "adjust" to be in the same boat with Eric.
When they talked about rich privileged kids they probably meant really rich, not just middle class. Elliot Rodger was in similar situation to them - being well off but not rich enough for his school.

Dylan had 16 years old used BMW. His parents were middle class. It's different than being rich. Including different culture.

I think Eric would've heavily disagreed with Bastian Bosse. While Eric was a Social Darwinist, Misanthrope and Homophobe Bastian followed more an Leftist/Egoistic Philosophy.

I think they would have liked Steven Kazmierczak because of his early obsession with Nazis, history of getting in the news with drano bombs, and his killing spree at NIU along with him embracing the Saw movies. (Eric and Dylan would have loved them)

They would’ve hated Alvaro Castillo due to him not going so far on his spree and being a Columbine obsessed man child. Which they would find cool but weird.

Eric and Dylan would’ve hated Salvador Ramos because he killed cats, did his shooting out of the whim after buying rifles at 18, no interesting manifestos, and getting a higher kill count on easy mode with little gun knowledge.
