If I had to give a single reason, it'd probably be because they're the ones, by and large, who are not only providing a platform for the dissemination of these abhorrent views by this trash, but they're directly profiting from it to boot... I feel like that's honestly pretty obvious, though I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt here and choose to assume you're genuinely asking and not just being facetious

It's both honestly. Overall I think the issue is rooted more in culture. Not tech. Secondly I am starting to question the role of media in yellow journalism to sell ads online by catering to crowds

i think he meant to respond with that to another thread or commenter. likely just a mis-post.

I mean, I guess? I dunno, I kinda wondered that at first, but I'm also kinda at a loss at to what other comment that could be a response to as well...? 🤷‍♂️ I mean, it seems like it's at least in the right thread, mostly, from the context lol 😂
