Most of those are just made by regular edgelords, but certainly at least some have been made by actual supporters. The "Chads and Stacies" for one thing was clearly and unironically made by Incels, who aren't all future spree killers but I can't think of a bigger spree killer factory.

I want to ask something in earnest.... Why is Eric always the one who is called godlike when it was dylan who started talking about being God like first and he’s the one who said what would Jesus do? What would I do?

I think a lot of it is due to people still going by the initial media portrayals. Dylan is still typically thought of as the quiet, forlorn kid who was just along for the ride. Many people still see Eric as this hate filled, mastermind who got took his revenge on society. And as far as the people who idolize the two of them, I think Eric's rage resonates with most of them more-so than Dylan's aloofness. To the average John Q Incel, it was Eric's grand scheme where Dylan was more of an accomplice. But that's just my two cents.

Most people who make these things are less interested in the actual details of the case and are more concerned with making a quick edgy joke.

Poor Randy, always gets shit on.
Yeah, I don't really know how to feel about that. A part of me thinks it's quite good that at least people don't give him too much credit and that he hasn't really got fans (although we know it is not exactly true, unfortunately) and been turned into a mythic killer, and yet I don't really like how this tragedy has been turned into something almost funny. I don't know how I would react if I were the family of a victim or Randy's parents and read people saying that Randy was a cringey virgin loser, whereas for them he surely wasn't harmless. It was a tragedy, Randy was troubled or suffered enough to kill people and himself, it was a tragedy for his family and it was a tragedy for the victims and their family.
Although I don't blame anyone here for writing funny things about him nor do I mean that you don't even think it was a tragedy, it's just my feeling.

Don't read to much into it. I just thought it was funny. Especially the Paddock and Stair part.
Sorry, I absolutely did not talk about you personally, when I wrote "you" I meant people who are always making fun of him.
I also found that meme funny, I don't think saying funny things about shootings is bad, it's just that I have the impression that everything said about Stair and his shooting is something funny, or making fun of him, and never something serious, unlike Columbine for example.

No harm done! I understood exactly what you meant. I was just saying that I thought it was funny, which is why I posted it. Researching things like this can get very disheartening and depressing at times, so I do let loose with something humorous when I find it just to save my own sanity. I think a lot of others do as well.

I sometimes need some lighter stuff too. Let's say that Randy save the sanity of all of us then!
