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.

Snopes is a dumpster fire and the content editors consistently show a weak grasp of logic. Fact checking on a mass scale is a pipe dream and a massive minefield of false positives.

Although I might support this because I despise Twitter and support anything that might quicken it's demise.
