Ignoring this is lethal. Deadly. The magnitude of societal reform we need is on the same level as where this country was between 1890 and 1915. Social Media Companies, school officials, cops, politicians, ect. The Bayeux Tapestry isn't big enough for the failure list. Disgraceful https://twitter.com/...

Some teenagers say French social networking app Yubo, which has 18M downloads in the US, ignored reports that the Uvalde shooter threatened violence on the app

Young people who met the alleged gunman online said he had threatened to kidnap, rape or kill.

Young Zuck has grown to hideous dimensions. Whatever they call it, IT is too big, too powerful, too unaccountable and deeply untrustworthy. It is not a benign organization and it is cold and indifferent towards any concept of the public good. Maybe the name should be AMERIZUCKED

tribes who have succumb to the lies of division and disunion won't stop. In the end, it is all nonsense. I think Zuckerberg's vision of the “Metaverse” is monstrous and frightening and there should be some deep reflection as a society about the implications of all this.

Lastly, I have a psychological observation. Ms. Bickert seems genuinely affronted. She is angry and aggrieved that she must answer questions around intentions. I think this means that Facebook Executives live in a cloistered bubble. It creates a worldview where it is presumed
