YouTube and Reddit are sued for allegedly enabling the racist mass shooting in Buffalo that left 10 dead::The complementary lawsuits claim that the massacre in 2022 was made possible by tech giants, a local gun shop, and the gunman’s parents.

      Fair enough! I should’ve said, and have corrected it to, reactionaries.

      Also I didn’t really mean it in as US centric way hence saying conservatives rather than Republicans. More of the philosophy of conservativism instead of the political oriented conservatives. You know, trying to maintain old institutions at all costs, automatically assuming new institutions are not as good, only finding faults in new methods/institutions while ignoring the faults with the old, etc.

            if you want to get technical, most of the 500 “mass shootings” you’re referring too are committed by young black or hispanic men in gangs. Doubt many of those people give two shits who’s sitting in the white house.
