I think it is more than a little reasonable to ask whether or not his entire 'manifesto' was written by someone else, or if his entire MO was to be able to get these 'ideas' out in the public.
The question here seems to me to come down to wondering if he is really a genuine lunatic, or if he was programmed by someone very powerful. It seems not entirely implausible that he was 'programmed' and supplied with all the necessary bells and whistles, like a crazy-arsed 'manifesto'. Of course, I am also willing to admit he is just a genuine nut-job, if the evidence eventually proves that.
Only an idiot (or someone intentionally attempting to obfuscate the issue with inane banter, straw men, and circular logic) would pretend they KNOW one way or the other at this point.

Again - By what criteria would you accept that this Manifesto was legitimate? And what does legitimate mean to you?
Seriously - one entire question. I've even given you "complete the sentence" work to help you clarify.

But you CAN prove it. By proving or disproving the details that LINK him to the manifesto. Of which there are 1500 pages of. That required he interact with other actual living human beings and leave transactions around that support those purchases.

Oh, please detail how 'purchases' of his prove he wrote this manifesto himself.
Because that seems to be quite the leap in logic.
Hardly. You are just choosing to avoid my reasoning in favor of off topic straw men.

So you have no reason why you question it. You PASSIONATELY don't have even the slightest clue why you doubt that he wrote it for the reasons he detailed.

So you disbelieve what he told you, while proposing as an alternative EXACTLY what he did.
Your alternative, isn't.

Clearly, his 'manifesto' is being used to prop up certain political ideologies, and it seems worth CONSIDERING (what an intelligent person does) that perhaps those who may stand to gain from the interpretation of the contents of this 'manifesto' may have placed it in the public consciousness for their own reasons. IS that really beyond a reasonable consideration, and if so, why?

I'm actually trying to help you.
I've gamely even volunteered to find the details that might either help lend or take away credence to Breivik's Manifesto. I've given you ways to disprove the contents. I've suggested avenues of who or how to track down the guys organization and handlers.
I've pretty much offered up how to completely prove that Breivik's is lying for you. And you aren't capable of seeing it.
I've tried to get you to clarify what criteria would be acceptable to you as proof or disproof. And then I've given you the ways to disprove it. I've GIVEN YOU how to annihilate my contention that Breivik's Manifesto is his own.
The ONLY thing either of you need to do is define what something being "real" or "legitimate" or his own would look like to you.
You feel like I'm going around in circles, because in the absence of you thinking for yourself I've tried to bolster you up and do some thinking FOR you on your behalf. Even then, you neatly manage to avoid anything even remotely resembling thought.
