    A Columbia, Tennessee man is facing federal charges after he allegedly attempted to use a weapon of mass destruction to attempt to destroy a Nashville energy facility, according to the Department of Justice.

    Skyler Philippi, 24, allegedly told a confidential human source about his desire to commit a mass shooting at a YMCA facility in Columbia in June 2024. The DOJ explains that he also told another confidential human source about the impact of attacking large interstate substations and said that attacking several substations would “shock the system,” causing other substations to malfunction.

    “As charged, Skyler Philippi believed he was moments away from launching an attack on a Nashville energy facility to further his violent white supremacist ideology – but the FBI had already compromised his plot,” said Attorney General Merrick B. Garland.

    On Nov. 2, 2024, he participated in a Nordic ritual, which included reciting a Nordic prayer and discussing the Norse god Odin. Philippi allegedly told the undercover that “this is where the New Age begins” and that it was “time to do something big” that would be remembered “in the annals of history.”

    Young white men need to have more sex and learn how to be more attractive to woman who are killing it. I am 100% convinced we need a second sexual revolution.

    I'm not sure why this line is so interesting to me that they had to differentiate it was a human source.
