Projection is their weapon, truth & facts are their kryptonite.

Spend 5 minutes on X if you want to see violent rhetoric.

Exactly. Blame social media in general to distract from the real cancer that plagues our society. youtu.be/ACl81fshiVo

Next they’ll ban TikTok! Oh… wait…

Didn't we just live through a Republican House in the last administration that has a committee on the Weaponization of the Government because the government talked to social media companies when it came to combatting dangerous misinformation about a pandemic?

something something release the files.

I think there is an argument to be made Rupert Murdoch deserves that more than Trump. Trump may be President, but Murdoch set up multiple media organizations and was involved enough in the editorial decisions that opinions were primed to support Trump.

Um. Drumph uses social media dailly.

His own social media, so-called “Truth Social,” spreads lies and foments division. And he’s the biggest name on there

Social Media, like #PedoTrump 's Truth Social or #NaziMusk 's Twitter? #FascistGOP

Fully agree with this statement. That Imbecile has made matters worse. He shells just shut the hell up

Watching Sen Mark Kelly on MTP… he always is calm and factual

If the crazies weren’t continually told Trump is Hitler, perhaps the crazies wouldn’t have crazy thoughts and do crazy things. 🤔

Trump legitimized and coddled Nick Fuentes - and put his stamp of approval on angry white racists. Trump is the fertile ground on which this hate has grown and spread.

They certainly know, but refuse to speak against Trump. They are cowards.

Yes but at least he doesn’t do it on social medi…oh…wait…

It's always something else instead of dealing with the root cause. Blame video games instead of guns. Blame the other side instead of looking introspectively. Blame immigrants instead of their own failures.

Does anyone remember trump telling a crowd around 2015 that Hillary will take their guns and maybe “…they have a second amendment remedy for that…?”

He leads the pack

They have their prepositions mixed up. DT has done more TO, not for, our country.

I've said from the beginning that this bloodlust would backfire because in nearly every case they are the ones making it worse.

💯

Elon wants a race war so they are right about X.

Social media is only partly responsible, I have no doubt this guy was way too online, but as far as setting the tone goes I think it's the authoritarian in Chief who is responsible. His influence cannot be minimalized.

And THEIR OWN social media accounts. e.g. MIKE debased LEE

100%

When a normie hears social media they start thinking about Trump, Musk and Zuck.

It may no longer be so popular among Gen Z-ers, though. Early indications seem to suggest that this may have burst that bubble for enough of them to matter.

and dubious reporting www.youtube.com/watch?v=CylD...

They won't think twice about banning any and every social media app if it becomes weaponized against the elite. A true voice of the people. That's why decentralized platforms should be used. These apps owned by billionaires and their shareholders will ALWAYS be victim of oppression and suppression.

Also a distraction from Trump’s shitty economy.

and what's rich is that they own said social media

Absolutely

Trump has to create hate and disruption to divert from his failed policies and his fascist goals.

The elephant in The room so to speak

* Trump does not care or need to explain anything, which is the classic archetype of a tyrannical ruler who exercises power through fear & paranoia rather than reason or accountability. It is pointless to expect logic reasoning from Trump or his Fox News appointees administration *

Remember when Donnie banned tiktok? Oh right

Trump hates social media so much he created his own platform.

Well…and who do they suppose is doing the commenting on social media?

"Charlie Kirk freedom of speech good, social media bad!"

They will never admit that

Much of which he does on social media. ¯\(ツ)/¯

Perhaps Congress should look into it, starting with accounts that have the biggest followers on every platform

And started his own sm outlet to say whatever he wants with no pushback (and make money from it).

I didn't hear them saying this when the 2 MN Dem lawmakers were killed

Can you point to any non-violent solution that Trump has offered for any problem.

Hmmm...seems like MAGA morons have mastered social media hate speech and conspiracies starting with the leader, felon 47. But then all this is really a shill to create yet another diversion but we're not letting go...FFS

The right literally bought Twitter to screw with the Algorithm to promote right wing nonsense.

This is how the Nazi’s accomplished their heinous wrongdoings.

And they never mention guns. Guns, Guns, Guns. Other countries have mentally unwell people, other countries use social media.

They are terrified of social media, because this is where we call them out on their BS. If they could shut us up, they could rule in peace, but as long as we keep making noise, there's a chance they might be held accountable for something. The threat we are terrorizing them with is accountability.

If MAGA is so concerned about social media, MAGA should get off it. Start with Trump, who definitely shouldn’t have his own social media platform. 🤷‍♀️

Social media is a cancer on society. Here, I am using it, wasting time.

True! And he uses social media to do it! There really needs to be a movement to get off of social media. Not only will it bearing peace back to our country, but it will deprive billionaires of their income streams.

What can we do to help them see they are being manipulated by SM strategically created to divide us. A civil war is encouraged by those who are securely far behind the front lines. This is an economic war.

And GUNS!

Social media is owned by oligarchs like Zuck, Musk & soon Ellison who all rely on algorithms & bots to normalize exactly what their fascism requires for minority control. With a 34 count convicted felon DEAR LEADER who ran saying he could shoot a man & still have support. bsky.app/profile/atru...

to add "on social media"

The shows that are promoting this social media violence and right wing ideology are a majority right-wing, and numerically far larger in terms of influence than the left.

www.axios.com/2022/05/02/t...

… via social media.

Interestingly, right wing billionaires secretly pay right wing extremists to blog or email or spread hate on social media . They do it behind the scenes using crypto currency, which is untraceable.

He had to create truth social because other social media sites banned him because he is a cunt.

…on social media.

It is infuriating to watch Mike Johnson go on the air & scold Dems for inciting violence with their rhetoric on the same channel that not 20 minutes had one of its anchors refer to citizens as “the enemy within”

Easier to attack "media, libs, immigrants etc" when you find out your own are out against you if you are not radical enough. Trump created this by favoring certain MAGAS or being a TACO. Surely people can see what he is doing. Oh. well maybe not.

Hmm nobody’s talking about this anymore. Release the Epstein Files.

100% correct! Every time Donald Trump opens that shithole mouth of his, his hate filled, bigoted inflammatory rhetoric heightens tensions and incites the crazies! Every fucking time! Once again, after this tragedy, Trump has proven himself unable to do the right thing, unable to lead this country!

100%

But I mean, he does it in large part through social media, so they're not wrong.

That's exactly perfectly correct thanks...

Dont forget heavy metal music.

I do reckon that social media does have some impact compared to games/music etc. Nut jobs can connect to other nut jobs in ways that weren’t possible before giving them a platform they didn’t really have

Probably because he wants people to stop asking about the Epstein files

One guy on Truth Social in particular.

But yes..the offenders are using social media to do what they do and meta is allowing it

🎯

Yeah what kind of nefarious money is behind these sites like X, Truth Social, and Threads?

They have a point, though, Republicans absolutely use social media to incite political violence.

Social media is the vehicle, not the cause; it gives hateful morons a huge megaphone and the ability to congregate and pile on.

Also, release the trunk Epstein files.

Social media is not a cause. It’s a tool or mechanism for amplifying political violence

Who was it, Dean Cain, that said yeeeaaah and it derailed his campaign? Then along came the deplorable Trump and the crowd cheered his ugliness.

They know it. Their strategy is to opposite everything. Every Republican accusation is an admission of guilt.

...and the fact that he owns a social media company.

And the guns.

And Elon.

It’s social media’s fault, but it’s shit by Trump and the right wing pundits spewing hate on social media that’s being amplified with the algorithms on Trump and Elon’s platforms.

Republicans have a long history of blaming irrelevant factors for whatever it is they don't like. I'm old enough to remember their whipping boys comic books and "permissiveness." Their scapegoats come and go like women's fashions.

The talk about the Democrats being some imaginary evil remember who incited the Jan 6 love fest. Then what tough on crime president released of all of them.

TBF he does that on social media

And our shit press/punditry helps them

Yup.

or that Donald Trump owns one of the biggest cesspool social media sites on the planet.

100%

They own most social media platforms. Another self own. They’re like the kid who inadvertently shoots themselves in the foot while trying to figure out if the gun is loaded. Clueless. Just wish they were also harmless. But that ain’t happening.

Yes, not to mention that Trump himself started a social media company which is one of the biggest contributors to inflammatory and hateful rhetoric, so Republicans really should go to him directly and confront him about this issue if they are truly concerned about social media being the problem.

...and he does a lot of it on his own social media platform, which is then reposted on other platforms, so they are *partially* right. 😞

The shooter seems to be the classic disaffected white male that wants some notoriety. Mental illness & guns don’t mix well together.

And he uses social media like some people use fentanyl.

When should we expect an apology from the Felon for blaming the left? Don’t worry, I already know the answer.

👍

Being forced to address whatever pathological rot exists in their own community, never sits well w/whyte folks. White on white crime has been an epidemic since this countries inception. Instead of confronting their deficiencies they have to blame everyone and everything else and become more violent

Trump has his maga trolls on social media who amplify his violent rhetoric. The tech bros who own these platforms promote the trolls. Trump has his paramilitary groups who threaten dissenters.

He’s always on social media. I haven’t heard the mental health excuse in regard to gun violence this time though. Didn’t fit their talking point I guess

Social media isn't the problem. It's the people designing, maintaining, and using social media. It's ALWAYS the people. 😠

Got earplugs?

This is probably because mainstream Maga is probably figuring out that CK was killed by someone further right than them.

Well - it’s Donald Trump ON social media inciting political violence… They just left off the first bit.

By harnessing Twitter, 'Truth Social', etc for Russian and neo-nazi propaganda

Did you hear? Charlie Epstein got shot! That's horrible!

Exactly 💯

At what point do we stop calling them "crazies", and start calling them "rational people who recognize that the Right can't be reasoned with"...? I'm not plotting to assassinate anyone, but you can be damn sure I perk up and have some strong desires anytime "Where's Trump?" starts trending.
