There has to be a better way to share these emails than these mobile screenshots

I had the same thought, but the dude it probably not near a computer. We're lucky to get them this fast.

Receipts are always such a good time.
Just keep telling blatant lies and wait for his alt right buddies to back him up.

From the Daily Beast authors
yikes
So, you're totally ok with him being directly and heavily involved with a hate group, and see nothing wrong with that. Got it.
This is what doesn't make sense to me. Palmer needs some handlers.

I don't understand why they posted those screen shots that way.
If you were to post those screens wouldn't you have it with the "From: Palmer Luckey" part above the body of the email?
The way they took those screenshots doesn't show who sent the email that says "I made the post"
come on journalists, you can't fuck this up please.

They'll probably update the article at some point. Guess they wanted to respond quickly. This story just got weirder because someone is clearly lying.
The one who took all day to apologize I'd reckon
why did he bankroll a white-supremacist/misogynistic/anti-lgbt harassment group in the first place?

Well there's the proof. I wonder if he will try to twist the story now like He was hacked and never made that post.

It's like you know he's lying but the sense of presence is so strong, it's like he's actually telling the truth. Amazing
It was shopped!
But really, who could ever believe him when you see who he'ss dating.
How many sane and liberal people do you know who have been dating a racist, sexist Trump supporter for years? It makes ZERO sense.

"I gave a lot of money to white supremacists that literally say they 'shitpost', and promised even more, but I just thought those were 'fresh ideas'."
I'm glad he made this statement, which can be easily contradicted. Makes it easier for Facebook to cut him loose.

He was so far up his own ass he didn't think it would blow up like it. Hundreds of millions of dollars can't buy you social skills.
Lmao. This was the first thing I thought of.
I'm sure his email account and his girlfriend's Twitter account only got hacked. Someone tries to destroy this man who had no bad intentions with his donation to this initially innocent appearing organization.
And it's hard to argue that he's lying by saying that this organization had "fresh ideas" on communicating with young voters. They just took a rather different approach.

Did Palmer Luckey just lie to everyone? Is this what just happened?
Either that or he is saying The Daily Beast fabricated emails. This is what is on the table, right?
fucking what

Yea. First impressions are everything though. Guess they want to get them up quickly so to prevent accusations of doctoring or photoshopping these emails. It just lends credence to those that will cry fake though.

"Obama made me do it"
This is unadulterated PR spin
Holy hell. That was possibly the worst response possible.
The sorry for the what your actions caused but denying the action routine is transparent as he'll.
Here's a tip Palmer. If you were properly a libertarian you wouldn't be finding a group backing Trump, possibly the furthest away candidate from libertarians possible. Pulling the "I thought they were legit" card about Nimble America is frankly a joke. You don't give a random group like this money without knowing who they are. If you wanted to back your supposed cause then you would have used your public equity to back Johnson publically and monetarily.
This? Is just bad. Time to man up and face the music.

By lying?
Well, he hasn't come out and said they fabricated the emails yet. but I imagine that's what's coming next since the daily beast can't take a decent screenshot.

This story keeps getting better and better lol
I guess Facebook has the weekend to figure out what they're going to do about this and I hope they make the right decision. My disappointment as a kickstarter backer is immense.
This is the part that I still don't understand. He knew it would be reported on, he knew there'd be evidence, so why admit to having made any posts as that reddit account? I don't doubt the Daily Beast at this point but I'd like to see the rest of the e-mail chain to understand the full picture better.
