    I hate when they delete stuff, like… do you want conspiracy theories to spread? Because that’s how conspiracy theories spread.

      the problem is that due to the algorithmic nature of social media it ends up getting pushed to people who don’t want to see it.

    In this case, he said the video of Kirk’s death is newsworthy given the fact that he is a public figure who was killed at a public event.

    Saved you a click.

    It’s news and the adults in the room have not just a right but a responsibility to remain informed.

      Soon only the dark web will have it.
      I mean, I don’t like seeing that shit,
      but I also don’t like living in make-belief land
      where the horrors of life are kept hidden
      by our “well-meaning” overlords
