    There are so many other stories of social media radicalizing people. It was a huge issue at the height of ISIS’ power. I’m not saying all social media is bad or it will turn everyone into killers, but I’m not sure why you don’t think the social pressures inherent in any system involving a community of people won’t have an influence.

      Isn’t this specifically what I said in the first place?

      I’m just adding the step of not blaming one medium so it’s easy to think the job is done when we all know that barbarism begins at home.
