If Lemmy/Pixelfed/Masto can’t capitalize on this we fucked up.

EDIT: realized it might be email/paywalled. In short, the IG algorithm started showing a huge number of gruesome murder videos to random users for seemingly no reason.

    No idea who that is, but I learned an important lesson from Uvalde. One of the values that a capitalist society attenpts to instill is a sense of rugged individualism. Even professional tough guys, when thinking death is on the line, will hesitate, as we saw. As a minority in america, when some iteration of the proud boys comes knocking to check your birth certificate, it is imperative that you get them thinking that there’s a chance that they don’t walk away. Get them thinking, “What about me?” and you chances of survival increase.
