I know it is "never too late" for things like this to happen, but it's definitely late.

One of the main reasons for bad things to happen is the lack of education (which, in turn, leads to resist to change) and, therefore makes people prone to believe to unbelievable things.

Social platforms like Twitter should have long had things like "fact checking" ANY statements and should have restricting not only violence glorifying posts, but also the ones with racial or sexual discrimination and all the others .

It is late, but I like seeing it happen at least for the person with the most "glorifying" record in dividing a society.

That would make sense if every message were placed on hold before publishing while it got reviewed. But this is a real-time system. And even then, there are often multiple sides to events.

I'm not saying it's easy, but effort should be made as it is important. If you see the real-time voice recognition on the new Pixel phone, the technology for this type of action might not be that far away.

What’s sexy to me, to someone else is gratuitous sex objectification. Or vice versa.
