<p>The fascist Left regularly typifies the very qualities it professes to abhor. The only thing more pronounced than its totalitarianism is its stunning lack of self-awareness.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s ironic that leftists think of themselves as liberals, as the term &#8220;liberal&#8221; is historically and etymologically connected to the concept of liberty. Not only are they merely selective champions of liberty but the logical extension of their agenda is an eradication of liberty, from socialism to Supreme Court legislation, from radical redistributions of income to oppressive pseudo-environmental regulations.</p>
<p>What do I mean by &#8220;selective champions of liberty&#8221;? Simply that they believe conservative ideas are so odious they must be excluded from the classroom; social media; university student organizations; and, in too many cases, restaurants, yard signs and baseball caps.</p>
<p>Try teaching intelligent design in many public schools. In the name of science, they&#8217;ll exclude ID&#8217;s scientific findings. They believe that conservatives and their ideas are inherently racist and sexist and, in many cases, lead to violence, which means conservatives are not entitled to First Amendment protection or free expression on social media. It&#8217;s scary how these leftists have blinded themselves to their own hypocrisy and fascism in trampling the same rights they purport to celebrate.</p>
<p>Invisible authoritarians running social media platforms cite arbitrary rules of conduct that conveniently censor conservative opinion to allegedly ensure decency and decorum. Yet the opinions they muzzle are only dangerous and indecent if you define danger as the free expression of opposing views. While prohibiting conservative views that don&#8217;t remotely advocate violence, they permit overt leftist calls for violence. The chilling process by which this &#8220;private&#8221; and sometimes-government-supported censorship occurs is that leftists subjectively determine conservative speech is offensive or hateful and must be banned.</p>
<p>The First Amendment free-speech guarantees were designed precisely to protect controversial political speech, as uncontroversial expression obviously needs no protection. In the not-too-distant past, liberals understood that protecting the expression of all ideas was the essence of liberty. Yesterday&#8217;s American Civil Liberties Union defended the rights of neo-Nazis to march through Skokie, Illinois, in 1978.</p>
<p>Examples of the tyrannical leftist mindset abound. Nicholas Sandmann&#8217;s admission to Transylvania University in Kentucky incensed certain leftists. They clearly loathe Sandmann, who was brutally slandered by CNN and other leftists when activists accosted him for simply wearing a MAGA hat and standing for the pro-life cause.</p>
<p>&#8220;Does anyone else think it&#8217;s a bit of a stain on Transylvania University for accepting Nick Sandmann? I&#8217;m sure it&#8217;s a &#8216;both sides&#8217; defense, but it&#8217;s pretty counter to their mission and another instance of there not being equal sides to an issue,&#8221; wrote ACLU staffer Samuel Crankshaw on Facebook. &#8220;This kid clearly is a provocateur in training with no intention of learning. He exists only to troll, intimidate and play victim.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Counter to their mission&#8221;? What mission would that be: the promulgation of leftist propaganda and the suppression of opposing ideas? Note Crankshaw&#8217;s revealing admission that he doesn&#8217;t believe there are even two sides to the Sandmann controversy. This is more remarkable considering that the media&#8217;s original reporting of this event was debunked at the time and then more resoundingly discredited when Sandmann settled a major defamation suit against CNN and others.</p>
<p>Despite Sandmann&#8217;s vindication, this ranting ACLU ideologue can&#8217;t even acknowledge that Sandmann had a legitimate position. And without knowing Sandmann personally, Crankshaw presumes he has no intention of learning — leftist open-mindedness on parade.</p>
<p>Crankshaw isn&#8217;t alone. Transylvania University professor Avery Tompkins, who paradoxically identifies as a &#8220;diversity scholar,&#8221; went further. &#8220;If (Sandmann) were to cause problems by being disruptive, trolling, or engaging in unethical behavior of any kind, I would immediately document it &#8230; and he would just be putting himself in a position for me to file a conduct report,&#8221; commented Tompkins on Crankshaw&#8217;s Facebook page.</p>
<p>This unmistakably reads like a threat against Sandmann should he express his views. If that weren&#8217;t sickening enough, Tompkins&#8217; claims are preposterous. Sandmann wasn&#8217;t disruptive at the pro-life march. He trolled no one; a Native American man approached and taunted him, obnoxiously banging a drum in his face. Nor did Sandmann behave unethically, unless, perhaps, you believe that gathering in support of innocent unborn babies is unethical.</p>
<p>Tompkins&#8217; thinking is disturbing (though I would still defend his freedom to express this stupidity), as is his attempted intimidation of a student entering his university. It&#8217;s rich that on the university website, Tompkins is quoted as saying: &#8220;I don&#8217;t want to be the authoritative person in the classroom. &#8230; The classes are there for the students. It&#8217;s not my soapbox.&#8221; Hmm. Could have fooled this casual observer.</p>
<p>Tompkins&#8217; later apology in which he paid lip service to &#8220;diversity&#8221; is laughable. He is an adult with fully formed ideas, and a poster child for illustrating that the Left’s idea of &#8220;diversity&#8221; means anything but ideological diversity.</p>
<p>Another example involved leftist University of Rhode Island professor Erik Loomis, who defended an anarchist&#8217;s murder of Trump supporter Aaron Danielson in Portland. &#8220;He killed a fascist,&#8221; Loomis said. &#8220;I see nothing wrong with it, at least from a moral perspective.&#8221; This abomination speaks for itself.</p>
<p>Before you call this an extreme example, note that this kind of thinking drives the widespread leftist violence throughout American cities that was enabled by Democratic governors and mayors.</p>
<p>I wouldn&#8217;t be so alarmed about any of this if the Left weren&#8217;t promising to ratchet up its violence if President Donald Trump is reelected. If you doubt this, you&#8217;re not paying attention, and as young people say, &#8220;That&#8217;s on you.&#8221; Prayers and more prayers for this great nation.</p>

<p>In a report published on Tuesday, The Washington Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/turning-point-teens-disinformation-trump/2020/09/15/c84091ae-f20a-11ea-b796-2dd09962649c_story.html">smeared</a> conservative activists, likening them to &#8220;Russian bots&#8221; and a Macedonian &#8220;troll farm&#8221; for posting pro-Trump and conservative content online from their own accounts, in coordination with Turning Point USA marketing partner Rally Forge.</p>
<p>The Post, ironically railing against so-called election interference, boasted Tuesday about prompting social media giants like Twitter and Facebook to ban the young Arizona-based politicos&#8217; accounts:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>In response to questions from The Post, Twitter on Tuesday suspended at least 20 accounts involved in the activity for “platform manipulation and spam.” Facebook also removed a number of accounts as part of what the company said is an ongoing investigation.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>There is no evidence presented by the Post or otherwise that the accounts are in fact &#8220;bots.&#8221;</p>
<p>The young conservatives used their real names and personal accounts—or pseudonyms to protect themselves from bullying and harassment—posting pro-Trump, conservative, and lockdown-skeptical content online for months.</p>
<p>Moreover, numerous Democrat organizations engage in the same message-pushing outlined in the Post report, noted Breitbart <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2020/09/16/washpost-compares-pro-trump-teenagers-to-russian-trolls-gets-them-banned-from-social-media/">reporter</a> Allum Bokhari.</p>
<p>Here are a just a couple of the examples highlighted by Bokhari:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>The <a class="x5l" href="https://archive.is/0ZOR5" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">Texas Democrat Party</a> is currently advertising for a “deputy digital organizing director” who will “Recruit and manage an in-state volunteer digital captains program to develop, curate, and distribute grassroots-generated content in support of Democrats up and down the ticket.”</em></p>
<p><em>The <a class="x5l" href="https://archive.is/EVGmN" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">South Carolina Democrat</a> party is currently recruiting a “digital organizing manager,” who will “develop volunteer communities via Facebook, Slack, and/or other online platforms.”</em></p></blockquote>
<p>“Comparing American conservative teenagers to Russian bots is, in and of itself, the height of misinformation by the mainstream media,” said a spokesman for Students for Trump, which contracted Rally Forge. “They should be ashamed. It’s beyond ridiculous at this point.”</p>
<p>Paige Noonan, one of the young conservative activists, pushed back against the Post.</p>
<p>“I love this job,&#8221; she said, according to Breitbart. &#8220;It’s a great environment and I actually have fun with it — I am grateful I have a job during corona[virus].”</p>
<p>“It’s sick that the <em>Washington Post </em>and Twitter are working together to take away my right to free speech” she added.</p>
<p>“It’s stupid and dumb,” said activist Brent Hamilton. “They call us ‘Russian bots,’ which we’re obviously not. We’re American and Arizonan, writing about what we believe in.”</p>
<p>Hamilton had his account banned from social media following the Post&#8217;s pushback regarding the conservatives to big tech companies.</p>
<p>Turning Point Action field director Austin Smith issued a statement in response to the report, too. “This is sincere political activism conducted by real people who passionately hold the beliefs they describe online, not an anonymous troll farm in Russia,&#8221; he said.</p>
<div>
<p>“Like everyone else, Turning Point Action’s plans for nationwide in-person events and activities were completely disrupted by the pandemic,” Smith added. “Many positions TPA had planned for in field work were going to be completely cut, but TPA managed to reimagine these roles and working with our marketing partners, transitioned some to a virtual and online activist model.”</p>

<p>A new report from the  Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI), which typically studies the spread of far-right propaganda on social media, suggests that &#8220;violent&#8221; memes are surging on social media &#8212; but this time, from the far-left.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2020/09/14/violent-antipolice-memes-surge/">The Washington Post reports</a> that NCRI &#8220;warns that some left-wing groups have embraced similar social media tactics, including memes and humorous catchphrases, to spread their messages and possibly help coordinate offline activity,&#8221; including violent protests in places like Portland, Oregon, and Seattle, Washington.</p>
<p>The &#8220;surge&#8221; includes &#8220;calls to destroy property and attack [police] officers,&#8221; the outlets said.</p>
<p>There have certainly been a number of incidents of protesters-turned-rioters doing both. In Portland, anti-racism and anti-police brutality demonstrations have gone on nightly for more than three months, and many of those protests have turned destructive. In Kenosha, Wisconsin, protests over the police-involved shooting of Jacob Blake caused more than $60 million in damages to city property alone.</p>
<p>Chicago&#8217;s looters, who have hit the city&#8217;s downtown retail districts twice &#8212; once in May and once in August &#8212; are, perhaps, the best example of social media-coordinated activity. <a href="https://wgntv.com/news/wgn-investigates/how-police-experts-say-crowds-used-social-media-to-coordinate-looting-in-chicago/">WGN news reports</a> that Chicago police and local experts believe looters coordinated their activity on social networks before breaking into stores on the city&#8217;s north and northwest sides.</p>
<p>“CPD became aware of several social media posts encouraging looting downtown,” Chicago Police Superintendent David Brown said at the time. “Once we got word of these social media posts, 400 officers were dispatched to our downtown area.</p>
<p>NCRI researchers say left-wing groups may have used social media to coordinate &#8220;riots in Seattle, Portland and other cities on July 25, involving fires, looting and property damage.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Some memes that spread on social media depict police officers being shot or their vehicles burned,&#8221; the Washington Post noted. &#8220;One post from a left-wing group cited by the report called for the use of laser pointers to obstruct surveillance and the lighting of fires at police barricades. Another post urged people to use 3-D printers to make guns that can’t be traced by authorities.&#8221;</p>
<p>The group noticed a particular uptick in &#8220;anti-police rhetoric.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Comments using anti-police slogans surged nearly 300 percent on Reddit and more than 1,000 percent on Twitter during the unrest triggered by the killing of George Floyd in May, according to the report,&#8221; The Washington Post said. &#8220;It also described the growth of left-wing networks on Facebook, with such groups as Redneck Revolt and the Socialist Rifle Association boasting about 50,000 and 40,000 members, respectively.&#8221;</p>
<p>The numbers NCRI says, still &#8220;pale in comparison&#8221; to right-wing online groups, but it&#8217;s the escalation, not necessarily the number, that points to trouble.</p>
<p>Although neither The Washington Post nor NCRI mention it, the increase seems to correlate with an increase in organized left-wing activity overall.</p>
<p>As The Daily Wire reported late Monday, leaked information from the Department of Homeland Security indicates that &#8220;the department has &#8216;overwhelming intelligence&#8217; that the extremist violence in Portland was &#8216;organized&#8217; by individuals with an ideology categorized as &#8216;Violent Antifa Anarchist Inspired.'&#8221;</p>

<p>Great Britain’s Prince Harry, who along with his wife Meghan Markle has espoused left-wing causes, is calling for more censorship of social media and targeting corporations that fund social media.</p>
<p>In a piece published Thursday at the website <a href="https://www.fastcompany.com/90537682/prince-harry-social-media-is-dividing-us-together-we-can-redesign-it">Fast Company</a>, Harry acknowledged that he and his wife have been contacting “business leaders, heads of major corporations, and chief marketing officers at brands” to urge them to stop funding social media to stop the “crisis of hate,” “crisis of health,” and “crisis of truth.”</p>
<p>Harry lauded the effort by “a civil rights and racial justice campaign called Stop Hate For Profit,” which was led by the Anti-Defamation League, Color of Change, and the NAACP for sending “a $7 billion message through withheld ad dollars.”</p>
<p>“From conversations with experts in this space, we believe we have to remodel the architecture of our online community in a way defined more by compassion than hate; by truth instead of misinformation; by equity and inclusiveness instead of injustice and fearmongering; by free, rather than weaponized, speech,” he continued. “This remodeling must include industry leaders from all areas drawing a line in the sand against unacceptable online practices as well as being active participants in the process of establishing new standards for our online world.”</p>
<p>Harry likened the online atmosphere to the deadly effects of lead poisoning: “In the 1970s, there was a groundbreaking study on the societal effects of lead exposure and kids. The research found a clear connection … Eventually, sweeping health and environmental reforms were put in place to change this. We knew something was harmful to the health of our children, so we made the necessary changes to keep them safe, healthy, and well.”</p>
<p>“So there is huge value in advertisers sitting at the table <em>with</em><em> </em>advocacy leaders, <em>with</em> policy leaders, <em>with</em><em> </em>civil society leaders, in search of solutions that strengthen the digital community while protecting its free and open nature,” Harry advised.</p>
<p>He praised GARM, the Global Alliance for Responsible Media, for “evaluating standards and definitions around online hate speech.”</p>
<p>&#8220;But this is just the beginning,&#8221; Harry concluded. &#8220;And our hope is that it’s the beginning of a movement where we, as people, place community and connection, tolerance and empathy, and joy and kindness above all. The internet has enabled us to be joined together. We are now plugged into a vast nervous system that, yes, reflects our good, but too often also magnifies and fuels our bad. We can — and must — encourage these platforms to redesign themselves in a more responsible and compassionate way. The world will feel it, and we will all benefit from it.&#8221;</p>
<p>In early July, The Sun tweeted a video in which Harry <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-prince-harry-apologizes-for-worlds-institutional-racism-unconscious-bias">apologized for his generation</a> and the ones before his for their failure to “right the wrongs of the past,” including “institutional racism” and “unconscious bias.”</p>
<p>Harry started his mea culpa by citing his wife, Meghan Markle, then segueing to trumpeting that he and his wife would commit to the “change that you are all leading.”</p>
<p>&#8220;My wife said recently that our generation and the ones before us haven’t done enough to right the wrongs of the past,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I, too, am sorry. Sorry that we haven’t got the world to the place that you deserve it to be. Institutional racism has no place in our societies, yet it is still endemic. Unconscious bias must be acknowledged without blame, to create a better world for all of you. I want you to know that we are committed to being part of the solution and to being part of the change that you are all leading. Now is the time and we know that you can do it.&#8221;</p>

<p>On Sunday, tennis star Naomi Osaka responded to apparent criticism of some of her bikini-clad social media posts, asking detractors why they &#8220;feel&#8221; they have the right to comment on her clothing at all, and pushing back on the apparent claim that she&#8217;s wrongly rejecting her &#8220;innocent image.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I just wanna say it’s creeping me out how many people are commenting [at] me to maintain my &#8216;innocent image&#8217; and &#8216;don’t try to be someone your [sic] not,'&#8221; Osaka wrote via Twitter.</p>
<p>&#8220;You don’t know me, I’m 22, I wear swimsuits to the pool,&#8221; she added. &#8220;Why do you feel like you can comment on what I can wear?&#8221;</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>Osaka has several bikini and swimsuit posts of herself on her Instagram page, and was seemingly responding to comments from the social media platform.</p>

<p>“I don’t get why you would post half naked pics of yourself. Have some class… you don’t need to do this,&#8221; the comment says, replying to a photo of the 22-year-old in blue bikini bottoms, sneakers, and a yellow sweatshirt.</p>
<p>Many of the comments on Osaka&#8217;s posts, however, extend support for the tennis standout, including fire emojis and messages complimentary of her beauty.</p>

<p>Osaka became a household name back in 2018 when she faced off against tennis great Serena Williams during the U.S. Open’s women’s final —<em>and won.</em></p>
<p>However, Osaka&#8217;s impressive win was overshadowed by Williams&#8217; incensed outburst at umpire Carlos Ramos, whom she smeared as a sexist.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/williams-told-ramos-hes-never-ump-one-her-matches-amanda-prestigiacomo">The Daily Wire</a> reported on the outburst:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>During her final U.S. Open match against 20-year-old Naomi Osaka, Williams erupted when Ramos docked the athlete for illegally receiving coaching from the sidelines (which was later admitted to by Williams’ coach Patrick Mouratoglou), smashing her racket, and committing “verbal abuse.” The tennis icon branded Ramos a “thief” and a sexist and demanded an apology. “There’s men out here who do a lot worse. But because I’m a woman, because I’m a woman, you’re gonna take this away from me? That is not right,” Williams lashed out. She also told Ramos directly, “You will never do another one of my matches.”</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Post-match, Williams positioned herself a critical piece in the push for “women’s equality.”</p>
<p>“He’s (Ramos) never taken a game from a man because they said ‘thief.’ For me it blows my mind. But I’m going to continue to fight for women,” Williams told reporters, adding, “I just feel like the fact that I have to go through this is just an example for the next person that has emotions, and that want to express themselves, and want to be a strong woman. They’re going to be allowed to do that because of today.”</p>
<p>Following the match, Osaka <a href="https://theundefeated.com/features/naomi-osaka-wins-her-first-grand-slam-over-idol-serena-williams/">said</a> during an on-court interview, “I know that everyone was cheering for [Williams], and I’m sorry it had to end like this. I just want to say thank you for watching the match.”</p>

<p>Reddit, the user-driven online news platform, has taken the unusual and extreme step of banning a subreddit devoted to supporting President Donald Trump as part of the platform&#8217;s efforts at curbing so-called &#8220;hate speech.&#8221;</p>
<p>The move comes amid a site-wide effort, Reddit says, at taking on &#8220;subreddits &#8212; or forums &#8212; and users that promote hate based on &#8216;identity or vulnerability,'&#8221; <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/29/tech/reddit-hate-policy/index.html">the outlet told CNN</a> &#8212; and that includes, apparently, an outlet dedicated to promoting Trump and his agenda and organizing efforts to support the president online.</p>
<p>Around 2,000 subreddits were included in the purge, CNN says. The site announced the planned purge last week.</p>
<p>Reddit told the network that it tried to negotiate with The_Donald&#8217;s moderators, but even after a number of discussions aimed at toning down the subreddit&#8217;s content, the subreddit continued to be a &#8220;problem&#8221; for the rest of the Reddit community.</p>
<p>&#8220;Reddit said &#8216;The_Donald&#8217; forum has consistently broken its rules, antagonized other communities, and the moderators have refused to meet Reddit&#8217;s &#8216;most basic expectations,'&#8221; CNN reported Monday. &#8220;The company also said it has given the community warnings and changed its moderators.&#8221;</p>
<p>Late last year, Reddit &#8220;quarantined&#8221; The_Donald, and placed a pop-up on the site warning users that they could be accessing &#8220;hate speech,&#8221; and barring the subreddit&#8217;s users from cross-posting content from The_Donald to other subreddits. Reddit also removed The_Donald from its search function and toolbars.</p>
<p>&#8220;All communities on Reddit must abide by our content policy in good faith. We banned r/The_Donald because it has not done so, despite every opportunity,&#8221; Reddit&#8217;s administration said in a statement on Monday.</p>
<p>Going forward, Reddit says it will no longer engage in negotiations with problem subreddits as it did with The_Donald.</p>
<p>Subreddit moderators will simply receive a warning and if their forums continue to violate the site&#8217;s rules, the forums will be banned. Individual users who fail to abide by the rules may find themselves suspended or banned for problem behavior. The site will also empower some of its moderators to become content editors, removing posts that run afoul of restrictions against racist or hateful speech and against inciting violence, either in the real world or against users of other Reddit forums.</p>
<p>Although Reddit seems to have taken extraordinary steps to control &#8220;hate speech&#8221; on its platform, other social networks, like Twitter, have recently increased their own involvement in user content, placing themselves in the position of acting as an editor, censor, and fact-checker for certain key users.</p>
<p>The change has many users &#8212; and even some legislators &#8212; concerned that social media outlets are now becoming speech police, and lawmakers in Congress moved, last week, to try to remove special protections given to outlets like Twitter who claim to allow users to converse freely without fear of censorship.</p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Mike Rowe has parted ways with his fair share of friends. In fact, in one year, he lost as many as a million of them. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It was around 2013, and in his re-telling, his Facebook following dropped from three million to two after he appeared on “Real Time” with Bill Maher, the left-leaning political commentator who he has described as “opinionated, polarizing and controversial,&#8221; and, that same year, joined conservative radio host Glenn Beck for an interview. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“My buddies on the right just didn’t know what to do with the optics of me sitting next to Bill Maher,” said Rowe, who recalled the incident in a 2018 interview. “And my pals on the left just had no notion of how to square the cognitive dissonance that forced their heads to explode when they saw me sitting there with Glenn Beck.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The former “Dirty Jobs” host added: “We’re in the world now, where it’s not what we say that gets us in trouble, it’s what we don’t. And it&#8217;s not where we are that makes people’s eyebrows arch, it’s who we’re next to. It’s the proximity of outrage. It’s the geography of all of it.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Rowe’s observations, made during a “Sunday Special” conversation with Daily Wire editor-in-chief Ben Shapiro two years ago, continue to hold true </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">—</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> maybe even more so. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Earlier this month, The Washington Post published a 3,000-word tome about a random woman’s decision to attend a 2018 Halloween party as Meghan Kelly in blackface. Why? Two party guests who confronted the woman at the time were still upset over it, and wanted her to endure a full-throttled public humiliation, nearly two years after she privately apologized to the host. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Notably, Lyric Prince, one of the two guests, also wanted the host, an editorial cartoonist at the Washington Post, to condemn the woman </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">—</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> his own friend and a non-public figure </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">—</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> in public: “I want people who read this story to say to themselves, ‘I cannot excuse my friend’s bad behavior because it does reflect on me if I say nothing.’” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The woman has since been fired from her job. Cancel culture abounds. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">According to Rowe, part of the problem can be attributed to social media. Like a gun, social media is a tool, and it demands a level of responsibility from its user. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“We’re right on the verge, I think, of discovering some really interesting parallels between the First and Second Amendment. And I think people who would never, ever consider or associate a firearm with goodness, are ironically using speech as a real cudgel and restricting it in so many ways,” Rowe told Shapiro. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But, how you use the tool remains an open question. “Most people simply don’t have the training or the maturity to handle it,” said Rowe. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“The violence and the anger, and the outrage that you’re seeing, I think in part, is a result of having an unlimited amount of access to a platform that gives you both the mechanism to say whatever you want, and the anonymity, and the comfort to hide behind it,” he said. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“So people are very shrill and they’re very brave in those scenarios,” said Rowe, who argued that those factors, when combined together, serve as the “portent to a mob.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I think that’s what you’ve probably seen. Things get accelerated, and then there&#8217;s no place left for it to go, and so they have to act out,” he said. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The New York Times recently reported an uptick in high school students and alumni using “social media to expose racism,” including the use of anonymous Instagram accounts, where students can submit stories about others for public humiliation. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the Instagram accounts, described by The Times, was used to share screenshots and videos of local students using anything from racial slurs to engaging in “cultural appropriation.” When students became angry about it, some started photoshopping images to retaliate, and fights between friends broke out online. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Times reports that the specific Instagram page in question has since been shut down. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">During the 2018 interview, Rowe told Shapiro that people in society seem to confuse passion with conviction, an observation that reminded him of the “The Second Coming,” William Butler Yeats’ early-20th Century poem that is infamous for its apocalyptic imagery. </span></p>
<blockquote><p><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">The best lack all conviction, while the worst</span></i></p>
<p><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Are full of passionate intensity</span></i></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“If you don’t have the certainty of your convictions. If you can’t make a case….Then what is left? Nothing is left but an explanation of how you feel,” said Rowe. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“If your philosophy ultimately redounds to an explanation of how you feel, then you’re completely beholden to whatever feeling you might be experiencing at any given point. And then you’re just one of those people who follow their passion. Good luck with that,” said Rowe. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">So what’s better than relying on feelings? Rowe suggests that “a good-natured skepticism, a ton of gratitude, and some honest intellectual curiosity” could be the best replacement for the “let me tell you how I feel” philosophy that dominates outrage mobs.  </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I really don’t care how you feel, honestly. I mean, over a beer it&#8217;s kind of fun,” he said. “I just don’t care. It’s so much more interesting to understand why you believe what you believe, than it is to understand what you believe. That’s why mobs are boring,” said Rowe. </span></p>

<p>Pro Tip: It&#8217;s never OK to wear blackface.</p>
<p>It was never actually OK to wear blackface, even though people did it back in the day. But in the 21st century, no, not OK. Not ever.</p>
<p>But you can&#8217;t tell social media &#8220;influencers&#8221; anything. They&#8217;re influencers, after all, so they&#8217;re usually too busy influencing to, you know, learn anything.</p>
<p>A handful of Instagram influencers, mostly in Eastern Europe and the Middle East, in recent days, have posted photos and videos of themselves in blackface &#8212; with captions attempting to show solidarity with black Americans after George Floyd died Memorial Day in the custody of Minneapolis police.</p>
<p>Instagram user <a class="class" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CBN83myJI09/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener">Saint Hoax</a> posted photos of eight &#8220;influencers&#8221; in blackface with a warning.</p>
<p>&#8220;Many &#8216;influencers&#8217; have been sharing photos of themselves wearing blackface as an act of solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement. Even after receiving backlash, some are still refusing to take down their posts. How can you “spread awareness” about a subject you know so little about? If you genuinely care about a cause, the least you can do is educate yourself about it.</p>
<p>&#8220;It’s infuriating that we still need to educate people about the racist and painful history of blackface. We shouldn’t be having this conversation in 2020,&#8221; Saint Hoax wrote.</p>
<p>One Instagrammer named &#8220;Tania Saleh,&#8221; wrote on Instagram: I wish I was black, today more than ever&#8230; Sending my love and full support to the people who demand equality and justice for all races anywhere in the world.&#8221; She added a slew of hashtags: &#8220;#nojusticenopeace #georgefloyd #blacklivesmatter #usa #policestate #whitesupremacy #amrika #justice #peace #love #color #race #black #strangefruit.&#8221; Strangefruit? OK.</p>

<p>Here&#8217;s what <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackface#Legacy">Wikipedia</a> has to say about blackface: &#8220;In the United States the practice gained popularity during the 19th century and contributed to the spread of racial stereotypes such as the &#8216;happy-go-lucky darky on the plantation&#8217; or the &#8216;dandified coon.&#8217; By the middle of the century, blackface minstrel shows had become a distinctive American art form, translating formal works such as opera into popular terms for a general audience. Early in the 20th century, blackface branched off from the minstrel show and became a form in its own right. In the United States, blackface had largely fallen out of favor by the turn of the 21st century and is now generally considered offensive, disrespectful, and racist,[11] though the practice continues in other countries where it is not deemed racist or offensive.&#8221;</p>
<p>So, for the record, no more blackface, people, OK?</p>

<p>Snapchat has decided to take a policy closer to Twitter regarding President Trump&#8217;s content in its Discover section, saying it helps to “amplify voices who incite racial violence.”</p>
<p>According to <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/snapchat-stop-promoting-trump-s-content-n1223631">NBC News</a>, the platform&#8217;s Discover section shows &#8220;content from news organizations, brands, celebrities and sometimes politicians.&#8221;</p>
<p>In a statement, Snapchat said that any account that incites &#8220;racial violence&#8221; will not be welcome on its platform.</p>
<p class="endmarkEnabled">“We are not currently promoting the president’s content on Snapchat’s Discover platform,&#8221; the company said. &#8220;We will not amplify voices who incite racial violence and injustice by giving them free promotion on Discover. Racial violence and injustice have no place in our society and we stand together with all who seek peace, love, equality, and justice in America.”</p>
<p>More from NBC News:</p>
<blockquote>
<p class="endmarkEnabled">The latest posts to Trump’s Snapchat feature were the last few words of Trump’s statement from the Rose Garden on Monday afternoon. In his address, he claimed to have “strongly recommended to every governor to deploy the National Guard in sufficient numbers that we dominate the streets.”</p>
<p class="endmarkEnabled">The Snapchat post then features a news clip of Trump walking from the Rose Garden to St. John’s Episcopal Church. The next Snapchat post shows the president holding up a bible in front of the church.</p>
</blockquote>
<p class="endmarkEnabled">Last week, Twitter decided to start providing fact checks and warnings that Trump’s content violates the company&#8217;s rules. In response to Snapchat&#8217;s recent shift in policy, Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale said on Wednesday that the company is trying to rig the 2020 election and that CEO Evan Spiegel &#8220;would rather promote extreme left riot videos and encourage their users to destroy America than share the positive words of unity, justice, and law and order from our President.&#8221;</p>
<p class="endmarkEnabled">“Snapchat hates that so many of their users watch the President’s content and so they are actively engaging in voter suppression,&#8221; he said. &#8220;If you’re a conservative, they do not want to hear from you, they do not want you to vote. They view you as a deplorable and they do not want you to exist on their platform.”</p>
<p>Last week, President Trump signed an executive order aiming to change a federal law that shields social media companies from being sued for content published on their platforms, arguing that those companies have an implicit bias against conservatives.</p>
<p>“The order also seeks to channel complaints about political bias to the Federal Trade Commission, an agency that the White House has asked to probe whether tech companies’ content-moderation policies are in keeping with their pledges of neutrality,” The Washington Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2020/05/28/trump-social-media-executive-order/">reported</a>. “The order additionally created a council in cooperation with state attorneys general to probe allegations of censorship based on political views. And it tasked federal agencies with reviewing their spending on social media advertising.”</p>

<p>Of course Trump is right about Twitter. What are we even talking about? Of course he is.</p>
<p>The Wall Street Journal, and other conservative venues, have the shivers over the president’s recent executive order concerning social media. The EO takes aim at section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which allows social media platforms some leeway to moderate content without being held legally responsible for that content.</p>
<p>Twitter is misusing that protection in order to censor conservative speech. There is no question about this. There is no gray area. They put a warning on a Trump tweet expressing concern about the possibility of fraud in mass mail-in votes. The warning referred readers to leftwing sites like CNN and The Washington Post whose views on this matter differ from the president’s. Do they fact check tweets from CNN to tell readers that the president disagrees? Of course not.</p>
<p>The other day, Trump tweeted some thunder at the thugs looting and burning Minneapolis. Twitter put a warning on the tweet, saying it “glorified violence” because it contained the phrase “when the looting starts, the shooting starts.” Left wing tweets — like one from leftist filmmaker Michael Moore encouraging rioters to “demolish” a local police station — which the rioters did — carried no warning.</p>
<p>The Twitter Head of Site Integrity is Yoel Roth, a man who has called the Trump administration Nazis and suggested that the “flyover” states that voted for him support fascism. When this was pointed out, Twitter head Jack Dorsey said, “Please leave our employees out of this,” because he was “ultimately responsible.” What the hell does that even mean? A Stalinist lowlife is undermining the president’s right to communicate with the people. Hit the road, Jack.</p>
<p>The Wall Street Journal frets: “Facebook, YouTube and Twitter aren’t utilities or soapboxes in the park. They’re businesses that earn piles of money by selling ads against your missives. They’re within their rights to set community standards and spike posts they deem a violation.”</p>
<p>Nonsense. Nonsense too are legalistic arguments that Twitter is not the federal government and therefore not subject to the First Amendment.</p>
<p>This is a classic case of conservatives vanishing up their own fundament on the issue of speech. Conservative media outlets tremble now if a social conservative expresses the opinion that homosexuality is a sin. They cancel conservatives who fear demographic change through unchecked immigration, accepting the leftist charge that this is bigotry per se. They avoid those — like myself — who feel that feminism is destructive to the lives of women.</p>
<p>This policy in conservative media outlets comes down to this: “We are yellow-bellied cowards afraid to fight the war of ideas lest it cost us money and reputation but, boy oh boy, are we going to sound angry about stuff so you’ll pay us gobs of money to scream and yell uselessly while the left takes over the country.”</p>
<p>Social media is the new way we talk to one another. If our free speech is being hampered on social media — and it is being hampered by leftists who want to silence conservatives — that has to be fixed. That there may be problems and obstacles to fixing that is part of the process. Solve the problems. Overcome the obstacles. However it’s done, do it. It’s not allowed. It’s not American. And if somehow we’ve mistakenly made it legal, change the bloody law.</p>
<p>The Left used to understand that corporations can become dangerous power centers that threaten freedom. But now, since corporations are largely in line with leftist ideas, they’ve abandoned that truth. It remains a truth nonetheless. If teams of conservative lawyers working round the clock can’t figure out that giant communications corporations censoring conservative speech spells the practical end of the First Amendment and therefore can’t be protected by the First Amendment, then my prescription is that we get some different lawyers.</p>
<p>A visceral hatred of Donald Trump in some quarters of conservativism has blinded conservatives to the fact that he is the one and only major conservative figure who understands the battle we’re in. It’s not against Democrats. It’s not against socialists. It’s against a communications industry — news, entertainment, and now social media — in which censoring the Right has become the norm.</p>
<p>Trump is absolutely right. Twitter is censoring conservatives. By any means necessary, it has to be stopped.</p>

<p>White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany highlighted on Thursday actions that Twitter has taken against the Trump administration that the administration says proves that the social media company is applying political bias in its content moderation decisions.</p>
<p>The remarks from McEnany come as President Donald Trump signed an Executive Order on Thursday that took action against social media companies through a variety of means including seeking to strip them of the legal and liability protections that they receive under Section 230, a law that protects tech giants from being liable for content that users post on their platforms.</p>
<p>&#8220;If we were to judge the bias of Twitter and its top employees by their own words, the case would be an easy one to make,&#8221; McEnany said. &#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/twitters-head-of-site-integrity-has-history-of-harsh-anti-trump-tweets">Twitter&#8217;s head of site integrity has tweeted that there are, quote, ‘actual Nazis’ in the White House</a>, and no fact-check label was ever applied to this absolutely outrageous, offensive, and false claim made against the White House and its employees.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;But let&#8217;s judge Twitter based on their actions, not based on the words of its top employees. And its actions are no better,&#8221; McEnany continued. &#8220;President Trump recently received a so-called &#8216;fact check&#8217; label for a tweet. It was a false fact check, an inaccurate fact check, but nevertheless, Twitter moved forward with it.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Dan Scavino, the Deputy Chief of Staff here, was the first user in the history of Twitter to receive a so-called, quote, &#8216;manipulated media&#8217; label for posting a video that played a verbatim clip,&#8221; McEnany continued. &#8220;It is no coincidence that these two unbelievable interventions by Twitter were targeted against the President of the United States and one of the President&#8217;s top advisors. This is bias in action.&#8221;</p>
<p>McEnany noted that while Twitter is quick to take action against the Trump administration, they have been reluctant and slow to respond to false claims from the Chinese Communist Party.</p>

<p>TRANSCRIPT:</p>
<blockquote><p>I wanted to address what has been going on on Twitter and with social media. I believe it is time to, quote, “get the facts” about Twitter and other social media platforms targeting their bias against President Trump and conservatives online.</p>
<p>If we were to judge the bias of Twitter and its top employees by their own words, the case would be an easy one to make. Twitter&#8217;s head of site integrity has tweeted that there are, quote, “actual Nazis” in the White House, and no fact-check label was ever applied to this absolutely outrageous, offensive, and false claim made against the White House and its employees.</p>
<p>But let&#8217;s judge Twitter based on their actions, not based on the words of its top employees. And its actions are no better. President Trump recently received a so-called “fact check” label for a tweet. It was a false fact check, an inaccurate fact check, but nevertheless, Twitter moved forward with it.</p>
<p>Dan Scavino, the Deputy Chief of Staff here, was the first user in the history of Twitter to receive a so-called, quote, “manipulated media” label for posting a video that played a verbatim clip. It is no coincidence that these two unbelievable interventions by Twitter were targeted against the President of the United States and one of the President&#8217;s top advisors. This is bias in action.</p>
<p>And while big tech is quick to censor the President, quick to censor some of his top employees, they &#8212; they are very reluctant, it seems, to label some of the actions by Chinese officials, some of the misinformation that has been spread by China. For example, to move off of Twitter and move to Google, they created a search engine for the Chinese Communist Party, which blacklisted searches for human rights and allowed for easy surveillance.</p>
<p>Facebook and Twitter have both taken paid advertising that spread disinformation about China&#8217;s mass imprisonment of religious minorities. And Twitter has allowed Chinese officials to use its platforms to spread misinformation about the coronavirus, undermine the pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong, and more.</p>
<p>And then, back in March, a Chinese official began spreading a conspiracy theory on Twitter &#8212; an egregious one &#8212; that our U.S. military was responsible for the spread of the coronavirus. And that tweet, that disinformation, it took all the way until today, when we raised concerns about it, to get a fact check.</p>
<p>So they appear to be very hastily eager to censor President Trump and some of his employees but a little reluctant when it comes to China. It&#8217;s a bit befuddling.</p>
<p>But no one believes in the First Amendment more than the President. The President will take action to ensure that big tech does not stifle free speech and that the rights of all Americans to speak, tweet, and post are protected.</p>
<p>And finally, I just want to note one other action of Twitter that I learned just before walking out here: that, on the Mueller report, their anti-Trump headlines were anti-Trump by a ratio of 76 to 1. That&#8217;s extraordinary. And it&#8217;s not just bias aimed at President Trump and his employees, it&#8217;s also aimed at everyday Americans. It&#8217;s aimed at the movie “Unplanned,” as Twitter suspended their account and then came up with an excuse in the aftermath.</p>
<p>And then, just another example that liberals are allowed to incite violence against the Covington kids who were, in the end, proven right and their video was taken out of context, and yet these individuals were led &#8212; were allowed by Twitter to incite violence. It&#8217;s very disturbing to see.</p></blockquote>

<p>President Donald Trump took action against social media companies on Thursday after repeated instances of <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/05/27/twitter-targets-conservatives-with-none-of-a-publishers-responsibilities/">bias</a> against conservatives by signing an Executive Order that seeks to change a federal law that shields companies from being sued or held liable for content that is posted on their sites by users.</p>
<p>The 20-year-old law in question is Section 230, which is heralded by tech giants because of the legal protections that it provides. The order that Trump signed in the Oval Office urges the Federal Communications Commission to reexamine the extent to which Section 230 protects social media companies from liability.</p>
<p>&#8220;The order also seeks to channel complaints about political bias to the Federal Trade Commission, an agency that the White House has asked to probe whether tech companies’ content-moderation policies are in keeping with their pledges of neutrality,&#8221; The Washington Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2020/05/28/trump-social-media-executive-order/">reported</a>. &#8220;The order additionally created a council in cooperation with state attorneys general to probe allegations of censorship based on political views. And it tasked federal agencies with reviewing their spending on social media advertising.&#8221;</p>
<p>While it&#8217;s not clear how the Executive Order will play out, the Post notes that it could &#8220;set the stage for federal regulators to write new rules and issue new punishments for companies deemed to exhibit political bias.&#8221;</p>
<p>During the signing of the Executive Order, Trump told reporters, &#8220;A small handful of powerful social media monopolies controls a vast portion of all public and private communications in the United States, and we know what they are.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;They’ve had unchecked power to censor, restrict, edit, shape, hide, alter virtually any form of communication between private citizens or large public audiences,&#8221; Trump continued. &#8220;There’s no precedent in American history for so small a number of corporations to control so large a sphere of human interaction, and that includes individual people controlling vast amounts of territory, and we can’t allow that to happen, especially when they go about doing what they’re doing, because they’re doing things incorrectly.&#8221;</p>

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>“The choices that Twitter makes, what it chooses to suppress, edit, blacklist, shadow, ban are editorial decisions, pure and simple,” Trump added. “They’re editorial decisions In those moments Twitter ceases to be a neutral public platform and they become an editor with a viewpoint, and I think we can say that about others also … one egregious example is when they try to silence views that they disagree with by selectively applying a fact check, F-A-C-T fact check. What they choose to fact check, and what they choose to ignore, or even promote is nothing more than a political activism group or political activism, and it’s inappropriate.”</p>
<p>“Currently social media giants like Twitter receive an unprecedented liability shield based on the theory that they’re a neutral platform, which they’re not, not an editor with a viewpoint,” Trump continued. “My executive order calls for new regulations under section 230 of the communications decency act to make it that social media companies that engage in censoring, or any political conduct will not be able to keep their liability shield. That’s a big deal, and they have a shield. They can do what they want. They have a shield. They’re not going to have that shield.”</p>
<p>“My executive order further instructs the federal trade commission, FTC to prohibit social media companies from engaging in any deceptive acts or practices affecting commerce,” Trump added. “Additionally, I’m directing the attorney general to work cooperatively with the states. He’s going to be working very much and very closely in cooperation with the states to enforce their own laws against such deceptive business practices. The states have brought in powerful authority to regulate in this arena, and they’ll be doing it also, and we encourage them to do it. If they see exactly as we’ve been seeing, what they’re doing is tantamount to monopoly.”</p>
<p>Trump said that if censorship of social media companies continues that it will severely undermine democracy in the United States and added that he has directed his administration to develop policies that prevent taxpayer dollars from going to social media companies that “repress free speech.”</p>

<p>President Donald Trump will reportedly sign an executive order on Thursday pertaining to social media companies, according to White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany.</p>
<p>&#8220;McEnany told reporters aboard Air Force One that the order is &#8216;pertaining to social media&#8217; but shared no additional details on what it will do,&#8221; Politico <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2020/05/27/trump-executive-order-social-media-twitter-285891">reported</a>. &#8220;But the announcement revived fears within the online industry that the Trump administration will target a 24-year-old statute that protects the companies from lawsuits — an avenue that a growing number of Republican lawmakers have advocated in their bias allegations about Silicon Valley.&#8221;</p>
<p>Shortly after news broke that Trump would sign an executive order, the president tweeted: &#8220;Big Tech is doing everything in their very considerable power to CENSOR in advance of the 2020 Election. If that happens, we no longer have our freedom. I will never let it happen! They tried hard in 2016, and lost. Now they are going absolutely CRAZY. Stay Tuned!!!&#8221;</p>

<blockquote><p>Roth has previously <a href="https://twitter.com/yoyoel/status/823312771416588288" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">referred</a> to Trump and his team as &#8220;ACTUAL NAZIS,&#8221; <a href="https://twitter.com/yoyoel/status/796186371408789505" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">mocked</a> Trump supporters by saying that &#8220;we fly over those states that voted for a racist tangerine for a reason,&#8221; and <a href="https://twitter.com/yoyoel/status/890812999874691073" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">called</a> Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., a &#8220;personality-free bag of farts.&#8221; Last August, Twitter <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/twitter-locks-out-mcconnell-campaign-for-posting-video-of-calls-for-violence-at-mcconnells-home" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">suspended</a> McConnell&#8217;s Twitter account, prompting the GOP to <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/white-house-mulls-action-on-anti-conservative-bias-as-twitter-locks-out-mcconnell-campaign" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">threaten</a> to cut off advertising on the site until Twitter relented.</p>
<p>In September 2016, Roth <a href="https://twitter.com/yoyoel/status/780605594138873856" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tweeted</a>, &#8220;I’ve never donated to a presidential campaign before, but I just gave $100 to Hillary for America. We can’t fu-k around anymore.&#8221;</p>
<p>When Trump won the November 2016 election, Roth dejectedly <a href="https://twitter.com/yoyoel/status/822490479405109248" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">chalked</a> the development up to &#8220;[Bernie] Sanders protest voters, and racism,&#8221; before sounding more optimistic notes.</p>
<p>&#8220;I’m almost ready to stop dwelling on how my friends are complicit in the election of Donald Trump,&#8221; he <a href="https://twitter.com/yoyoel/status/817799269759467521" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">said</a> on Jan. 7, 2017. &#8220;Almost.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Massive anti-Trump protest headed up Valencia St,&#8221; Roth <a href="https://twitter.com/yoyoel/status/822654925217873921" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">wrote</a> on Jan. 20, 2017, followed by a &#8220;heart&#8221; emoji and the words &#8220;San Francisco.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Trump tweeted out a video from Fox Business that covered the tweets from Roth. Twitter told Fox News that it was &#8220;unfortunate&#8221; that Roth was being &#8220;targeted&#8221; for his apparent bias.</p>

<p>Trump issued a stern warning to social media companies early Wednesday morning, writing, &#8220;Republicans feel that Social Media Platforms totally silence conservatives voices. We will strongly regulate, or close them down, before we can ever allow this to happen. We saw what they attempted to do, and failed, in 2016. We can’t let a more sophisticated version of that happen again.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Just like we can’t let large scale Mail-In Ballots take root in our Country,&#8221; Trump continued. &#8220;It would be a free for all on cheating, forgery and the theft of Ballots. Whoever cheated the most would win. Likewise, Social Media. Clean up your act, NOW!!!!&#8221;</p>

‘I Will Never Let It Happen!’: Trump To Sign An Executive Order On Social Media Companies

President Donald Trump will reportedly sign an executive order on Thursday pertaining to social media companies, according to White House Press Secretary

<p>Life is filled with nuance, with complexity. Take, for example, the case of Amy Cooper. Cooper is a 41-year-old white woman who worked at Franklin Templeton, an asset management firm. She was walking her dog without a leash in the Ramble section of Central Park when she was confronted by a black man named Christian Cooper (no relation). He told her to leash her dog; she refused. According to Christian, he then stated, &#8220;Look, if you&#8217;re going to do what you want, I&#8217;m going to do what I want, but you&#8217;re not going to like it.&#8221; She asked what he meant. He then summoned her dog, planning to give the dog treats. &#8220;I pull out the dog treats I carry for just such intransigence,&#8221; he explained.</p>
<p>At that point, he began filming the exchange. She told him to stop taping; he refused. While grabbing her dog by its collar, she informed him she would call the cops. &#8220;I&#8217;m going to tell them there&#8217;s an African American man threatening my life,&#8221; she said. He responded, &#8220;Please tell them whatever you like.&#8221; She did, in fact, call the police, and said: &#8220;I&#8217;m in the Ramble, and there&#8217;s a man, African American. He has a bicycle helmet, and he is recording me and threatening me and my dog.&#8221;</p>
<p>In real life, we&#8217;d examine the issue as objectively as possible. It appears that Christian Cooper did indeed say something vaguely threatening — &#8220;I&#8217;m going to do what I want, but you&#8217;re not going to like it&#8221; — and then attempted to get her dog to approach him. It also appears that Amy Cooper threatened him in racist fashion, implicitly suggesting that by telling the police that a black man was threatening her life, she could place him in mortal danger.</p>
<p>Suffice it to say that the proper solution here would have been for Amy Cooper to apologize and recognize the implicit racism in her own statements, for Christian Cooper to forgive her and for everyone to move on.</p>
<p>Instead, Christian Cooper posted the video. Twitter went wild. The outcome: Amy was labeled a racist and fired from her job, and had to surrender her dog. Her life was effectively ruined.</p>
<p>The world of social media has not made us any more responsible, any kinder or any more decent. It has made us far worse. That&#8217;s because Twitter isn&#8217;t about signaling virtue. It&#8217;s about signaling <em>commitment</em>. It&#8217;s insufficient to merely analyze events and give an honest take. You must be <em>for</em> or <em>against</em> something. And you demonstrate full <em>commitment</em> to that position. Your entire online identity rests on others retweeting or liking your purity of heart. There is no risk — only reward — in dunking on Amy Cooper, tweeting at her employer, encouraging her destruction. You will be rewarded for your anti-racism, amply demonstrated with just a few clicks. If you suggest any motivational complexity — that perhaps Amy Cooper said something racist and over-the-top but wasn&#8217;t lying when she said she felt threatened — then you will be tarred as insufficiently committed to the anti-racist cause.</p>
<p>This logic holds across the board. If President Donald Trump sends out a series of bizarre and morally reprehensible tweets accusing Joe Scarborough of murdering a congressional intern — and if you point out that this is both bizarre and morally reprehensible — then you will be labeled insufficiently loyal to the cause. It&#8217;s not about truth; it&#8217;s not about decency; it&#8217;s about signaling your <em>commitment</em>.</p>
<p>In the real world, commitment without decency is a sin. Online, commitment without decency is a virtue. Which is why if you spend too much time on Twitter, you probably ought to be committed.</p>

<p>In a perfect world Dave Rubin wouldn’t have to write “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Dont-Burn-this-Book-Thinking/dp/B07W8H9WX7/ref=sr_1_1?crid=P7VE3SUAPN3L&amp;dchild=1&amp;keywords=don%27t+burn+this+book+dave+rubin&amp;qid=1588614905&amp;sprefix=don%27t+burn+this+book%2Caps%2C195&amp;sr=8-1">Don’t Burn This Book</a>.”</p>
<p>The “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJdKr0Bgd_5saZYqLCa9mng">Rubin Report</a>” host wants his fellow Americans to agree to disagree and maybe share a craft beer later. Sounds like ye olde American experiment, right?</p>
<p>Not the 2020 version, sadly.</p>
<p>Rubin accidentally joined the Intellectual Dark Web by chatting with folks from both sides of the aisle. Now, he’s using free speech’s decline as a tool to share his life story, and more, in his easily digested memoir.</p>
<p>“Don’t Burn This Book: Thinking for Yourself in an Age of Unreason” wants to open our minds while sharing his right-leaning take on the culture at large.</p>
<p>Rubin shows a flair for self-awareness while trashing what passes for journalism today.</p>
<p>“If it weren’t for [the mainstream media’s] abject failure to do their jobs, you’d have no idea who I was,” he writes.</p>
<p>“Don’t Burn This Book” offers a primer on Fake News as well as Rubin revealing what happened when he shamed a journalist for trafficking in it.</p>
<p>If you follow any of the biggest names in news the answer won’t surprise you.</p>
<p>Rubin, who is gay, defends straight white men mid-book, a section sure to trigger the usual suspects. It’s more about the Left’s sense of “self-loathing” as much as how Leftists clash with a certain civil rights leader’s <a href="https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/martin_luther_king_jr_115056">famous line.</a></p>
<p>Part of the book finds Rubin weighing in on a series of hot button issues &#8212; the Second Amendment, abortion and more. He peels off a few nuggets about each, taking firm but reasonable stances along the way.</p>
<p>It still feels like a detour, and an unnecessary one. His whole thesis revolves around thinking for yourself. Perhaps he could break down in depth how he came to a few of these conclusions, a primer for processing facts en route to a bedrock principle. As is, the chapter marks the book’s weakest point.</p>
<p>“Book” also isn’t as riotous as one might expect given Rubin’s stand-up chops. A few laugh lines prove ineffective, though others more than live up to his background.</p>
<p>Far better is watching Dave Rubin, the media personality, spring to life. The author shares some personal struggles, both mental and physical, that led to his unexpected fame.</p>
<p>Rubin remains kindred spirits with Jordan Peterson, the Canadian intellectual who enraged the Left for telling people to clean their rooms and smiting government speech codes. They make an odd pair, but the chapter dedicated to their tour offers some humble life lessons.</p>
<p>Dress for success may sound obvious, but Rubin frames the old saw in a way that could make a difference. Even better is sharing Peterson’s knack for knowing his own limitations.</p>
<p>In today’s age of scorching hot takes, it’s more than acceptable to say, “I don’t know.” In fact, it’s refreshing and raw. Rubin’s thoughts on how we “catastrophize” everything in our First World lives is equally valuable, although it, too, could be better fleshed out.</p>
<p>The author burns plenty of calories repudiating the woke mob, giving specific techniques to keep the pitchforks at bay. He’s right, of course, but for many people the short-term costs will be considerable.</p>
<p>Rubin famously left the Left, which he says fueled the book’s initial premise. That transformation’s fallout, including hateful messages from former “allies” who now see him as Public Enemy Nos. 1-5, must be read to be believed.</p>
<p>Here’s a sample:</p>
<blockquote><p>“Suddenly longtime friends are leaving venomous voice mails, calling me racist and misogynistic, while others send emails denouncing me as a hateful bigot who deserves to die.”</p></blockquote>
<p>The scariest part of Rubin’s book is how he describes cultural forces aligning to silence dissent. He name checks an Economist story that dubbed The Daily Wire’s Ben Shapiro “a pop idol of the alt-right” as Exhibit A.</p>
<p>Yes, those eager to squelch free expression are on the march, but Rubin and “Don’t Burn This Book” have our backs.</p>
<p>“You’re not a Nazi, you’re just somebody who thinks for themselves,” he writes about Americans who don’t tow the progressive line. That sentence alone justifies Rubin’s cultural ascension. It’s also why “Don’t Burn This Book” should be read by every torch-wielding member of the social media mob.</p>

<p>Twitter users tried desperately to &#8220;cancel&#8221; Star Wars star Adam Driver this week after noticing a 2019 New Yorker interview in which Driver said he joined the military after 9/11 to serve in the Afghanistan War.</p>
<p>Driver was 18 at the time of the attacks and quickly enlisted in the Marines, looking to serve his country &#8212; a move The New Yorker seemed disdainful of, accusing Driver of looking for an outlet for &#8220;retribution.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;After 9/11, he found himself filled with a desire for retribution, although he wasn’t sure against what or whom,&#8221; the New Yorker wrote, filling in Driver&#8217;s motivation for him and, it seems, implying he was driven by Islamophobia. &#8220;&#8216;It wasn’t against Muslims,&#8217; [Driver] said. &#8216;It was: We were attacked. I want to fight for my country against whoever that is.'&#8221;</p>
<p>Driver says he joined the Marines because the service was notoriously difficult and he was looking for a challenge. He trained as an artillery specialist and served for two years before sustaining a career-ending injury. He went on to attend college and graduate from Julliard, and he eventually made his way to Hollywood, where he earned a memorable part in HBO&#8217;s &#8220;Girls,&#8221; before being cast as Sith Lord Kylo Ren in Star Wars, episodes 7, 8, and 9.</p>
<p>Driver has used his fame to advocate for veterans and runs an organization called &#8220;Arts in the Armed Forces&#8221; which performs for troops stationed abroad and works with members of the military interested in pursuing careers in the performing arts.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s a lot of depth, though, for social media, and Twitter users, famous for jumping to conclusions, quickly assumed Driver was, in fact, motivated by a hatred for Muslims and went to work skewering him for it.</p>
<p>&#8220;Well, okay, I’ve said that I have nothing against him,&#8221; one user wrote, <a href="https://www.cbr.com/twitter-cancels-adam-driver-with-new-hashtag/">according to CBR</a>. &#8220;That’s over now.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;#AdamDriverIsOverParty forget that ugly islamophobic troll,&#8221; wrote another.</p>
<p>The good news is &#8212; for Driver, at least &#8212; that many of his fans rushed to his defense, including Muslim producer and filmmaker, Kamran Pasha.</p>
<p><span class="css-901oao css-16my406 r-1qd0xha r-ad9z0x r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0">&#8220;Adam Driver is one of the finest actors of our generation, and a decent and honorable man by all accounts,&#8221; Pasha wrote. &#8220;As a Muslim filmmaker working in Hollywood, he has my full support. With everything happening in the world, today is not the day for an </span><span class="r-18u37iz">#AdamDriverIsOverParty.&#8221;</span></p>
<p>A twitter user named &#8220;Price of Reason,&#8221; put it more bluntly: &#8216;Adam Driver wanted to join the Marines after 9/11 so that he could fight for his country. Now a bunch of Fart-Sniffers on Twitter want to cancel him. I couldn&#8217;t make this stuff up.<a class="PrettyLink hashtag customisable" dir="ltr" href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/AdamDriverIsOverParty?src=hash" rel="tag" data-query-source="hashtag_click" data-scribe="element:hashtag"><span class="PrettyLink-prefix">#</span><span class="PrettyLink-value">AdamDriverIsOverParty&#8221;</span></a></p>
<p>Others blamed the dustup on segments of Twitter finding themselves lacking in attention amid the coronavirus pandemic, which has wiped out most entertainment news and left those who comment on celebrity life without much to talk about.</p>

<p>Your feel-good story of the day.</p>
<p>When the National Cowboy &amp; Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City was forced to close due to the coronavirus outbreak, the museum asked its head of security, Tim, to take over their social media networks. Tim and his team are the only ones still working at the museum while it is closed, making him the perfect candidate to continue their social media presence.</p>
<p>Tim, however, does not know social media, and his adorable attempts to learn have gone viral. The museum’s social media accounts may never be able to let Tim go. Before the head of security took over, the museum would post pictures of its exhibits with informative messages. Tim has taken a different route, taking photos of the exhibits but giving his personal takes on them, which are endearing.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m new to social media but excited to share what I am told is called &#8216;content&#8217; on all of The Cowboy&#8217;s what I am told are &#8216;platforms&#8217; including the Twitter, the Facebook, and the Instagram,&#8221; Tim said when he was first assigned to social media.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>One of Tim’s first posts included photo of the hat and eyepatch worn by John Wayne in the original “True Grit.” Tim gave some information about the exhibit before lamenting the fact that he can’t wear the hat.</p>
<p>“This is the hat and eyepatch the Duke wore in the movie True Grit. They are part of our Exhibition about the 2 True Grit. Lots of interesting props and clothes. I’m told I can’t try it on. Hashtag John Wayne. Lucas, my grandson, told me to use hashtags. Thanks, Tim,” he wrote.</p>

<p>The next day, March 19, Tim thanked people for providing him social media tips.</p>
<p>“Thanks for all the tips, Friends. Realize I have been doing the hashtags wrong. I need to use that pound sign from the phone. I’m learning! Here’s his costume from True Grit from 1969 courtesy of John Wayne Enterprises. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/HashtagJohnWayne?src=hashtag_click">#HashtagJohnWayne</a> Thanks, Tim,” he wrote.</p>

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>Next, Tim said that “Seth in Marketing said people would love to have me take some photos of our Selfie Stations in The Cowboy.” Tim took the suggestion literally, posting a photo of the floor where a selfie station sign sits.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>In a follow-up, Tim said he realized he “Didn’t get the Selfie Station photo quite right. I get it now. Here’s the Selfie Station in the Warhol and the West running through May 10, 2020. Thanks, Tim.” The new photo included him taking a selfie – with the selfie station floor sign.</p>

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>Tim included a “dad joke” in one of his tweets about old west chaps.</p>
<p>“Want to borrow some lip balm? You’re looking kind of chapped! Lucas, my grandson, didn’t think it was that funny, but I think you guys will LOL. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/HashtagTheCowboy?src=hashtag_click">#HashtagTheCowboy</a> Thanks, Tim,” he wrote.</p>

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>On March 20, Tim tweeted a photo of a case of cowboy hats, again lamenting the fact that he couldn’t wear them.</p>
<p>“I’m wearing a lot of hats now. Here are some hats I can’t wear. They&#8217;re behind glass. Seth in Marketing told me I could share this web address of a Virtual Tour of The Cowboy. It’s a long address so get a pen and paper ready <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/HashtagTheCowboy?src=hashtag_click">#HashtagTheCowboy</a> Thanks, Tim,” he wrote.</p>

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>Tim eventually took someone’s suggestion to “post a Tick Tock.” Instead of using the Tik Tok platform, he posted a photo of a clock.</p>
<p>“Someone suggested I post a Tick Tock,” he wrote. “It&#8217;s from our Warhol and The West Exhibition.

<p>Since Monday, Tim appears to be including more information about exhibits, like the account used to before Tim took over, but he still includes his own charming takes.</p>
<p>“Remington has some pretty amazing paintings too. This is The Sign of the Buffalo Scout painted in 1907. Oil on canvas. 1975.19.6, gift of Albert K. Mitchell, 1975.

<p>After sparking controversy for twerking with her exposed buttocks in public, singer Lizzo has now announced that she will be leaving Twitter due to the presence of &#8220;too many trolls.&#8221;</p>
<p>In a post on Sunday, Lizzo told her social media followers that she can no longer handle the onslaught of haters and will be signing off until she feels better.</p>
<p>&#8220;Yeah I can&#8217;t do this Twitter sh** no more &#8230; too many trolls &#8230; I&#8217;ll be back when I feel like it,&#8221; Lizzo said, as reported by <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/lizzo-leaving-twitter-attack-trolls-break">Fox News</a>.</p>
<p>Lizzo has been at the forefront of the body positivity movement, which she sometimes pushes by dancing in sexually suggestive clothing. In December of last year, she made headlines when footage featured her at a Lakers game twerking in a thong for all to see. Critics of her behavior were subsequently blasted as &#8220;fatphobic&#8221; and enemies of the body positivity movement. As The Daily Wire&#8217;s Amanda Prestigiacomo <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/media-gush-over-body-positive-lizzo-twerking-in-thong-at-lakers-game-critics-blasted-as-fatphobic-sexist">reported</a> at the time:</p>
<blockquote><p>Wearing a black thong and butt-less black dress, hit singer-songwriter and “body positivity” icon Lizzo “twerked” for the cameras while standing courtside at a Los Angeles Lakers game on Sunday evening.</p>
<p>The media, especially Left/feminist-leaning magazines and websites, gushed over the singer’s bare-booty gyrating. And those who criticized the “Truth Hurts” singer for being inappropriate, considering NBA games are frequented by kids and families, were dismissed as “fatphobic” and sexist.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.elle.com/culture/celebrities/a30168217/lizzo-twerking-la-lakers-game-video/">Elle magazine</a> gushed over Lizzo’s outfit and twerking moves and praised her for her “brazen confidence.”</p>
<p>“The singer wore a shirt dress with the back cut out so everyone could see the black thong she was wearing with her fishnet stockings. Then she flaunted it when she twerked for the Jumbotron. That is honestly the kind of brazen confidence and joie de vivre we should all take into 2020,” the magazine said.</p></blockquote>
<p>In response to some of the criticism, Lizzo <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-lizzo-responds-to-criticism-over-thong-twerking-session-at-laker-game-kiss-my-a">said in an Instagram Live video</a> that she just got excited over the Laker Girls dancing while also blasting her critics for shaming her. “The Laker Girls came out and they started dancing to ‘Juice’ and I just got so excited. And I wanted to show them how much I appreciate and support and love that they wanted to do that for me,” Lizzo explained. “So, I stood up and danced.”</p>
<p>“Who I am and the essence of me and the things that I choose to do as a grown-a** woman can inspire you to do the same,” she continued. “You don’t have to be like me. You need to be like you. And never ever let somebody stop you or shame you from being yourself. Like, this is who I’ve always been. Now everyone’s looking at it and your criticism can just remain your criticism … Negative criticism has no stake in my life, no control over my life, over my emotions. I’m the happiest I’ve ever been, I’m surrounded by love.”</p>
<p>Lizzo later told offended viewers that they can kiss her &#8220;a**&#8221; while vowing that she will never censor herself.</p>
<p>“I don’t ever want to censor myself … I’m not going to quiet myself,” she said. “I’m not going to shrink myself because somebody thinks that I’m not sexy to them. … It doesn’t really matter what goes on on the internet, nothing really breaks my joy. I’m a really solid, grounded person, and I know that I’m shocking because you’ve never seen — in a long time — a body like mine doing whatever it wants to do and dressing the way that it dresses and moving the way that it moves.”</p>
<p>“I just wanna spread that love and also spread these cheeks. And you know what, if you really don’t like my a**, you can kiss it. ‘Cause kissing it makes it go away, I promise.”</p>

<p>On Wednesday night, &#8220;Havana&#8221; singer Camila Cabello issued an apology on social media after she received backlash for racially insensitive posts she shared on an old <a href="https://vous-etess-belle.tumblr.com/post/16604023740/can-you-post-a-pic-of-yourself">Tumblr account</a> when she was 15-16 years old.</p>
<p>The posts have since been deleted by Cabello, though they were first <a href="https://twitter.com/motivatefenty/status/1207075263382732801">archived</a> by an offended Twitter user flagging the account.</p>
<p><span class="js-subbuzz__title-text">&#8220;When I was younger, I used language that I&#8217;m deeply ashamed of and will regret forever,&#8221; the 22-year-old pop star started her apology. </span><span class="js-subbuzz__title-text">&#8220;I was uneducated and ignorant and once I became aware of the history and the weight and the true meaning behind this horrible and hurtful language, I was deeply embarrassed I ever used it.&#8221;</span></p>
<p>&#8220;I apologized then and I apologize again now,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;I would never intentionally hurt anyone and I regret it from the bottom of my heart. As much as I wish I could, I can&#8217;t go back in time and change things I said in the past. But once you know better, you do better and that&#8217;s all I can do.&#8221;</p>
<p>One of the posts Cabello shared was an <a href="https://twitter.com/motivatefenty/status/1207081006680956929">image</a> of the &#8220;Winnie the Pooh&#8221; character of Piglet with darkened skin and a caption including a racist play on the N-word. Another <a href="https://twitter.com/motivatefenty/status/1207083659167182848">post</a> was a fake Google search that mocked the Chinese language. An <a href="https://twitter.com/motivatefenty/status/1207080159280582659">image</a> of a white female basketball player shielding a black female basketball player from a bucket of fried chicken was also shared.</p>
<p class="subbuzz__title xs-mb1 bold"><span class="js-subbuzz__title-text">&#8220;I&#8217;m 22 now, I&#8217;m an adult and I&#8217;ve grown and learned and am conscious and aware of the history and the pain it carries in a way I wasn&#8217;t before,&#8221; Cabello&#8217;s apology continued. &#8220;Those </span><span class="js-subbuzz__title-text">mistakes don&#8217;t represent the person I am or a person I&#8217;ve ever been.&#8221;</span></p>
<p>&#8220;I only stand and have ever stood for inclusivity and love, and my heart has never, even then, had any ounce of hate or divisiveness. The truth is I was embarrassingly ignorant and unaware.&#8221;</p>
<p class="subbuzz__title xs-mb1 bold"><span class="js-subbuzz__title-text">&#8220;I use my platform to speak out about injustice and inequality and I&#8217;ll continue doing that,&#8221; the singer concluded. &#8220;I can&#8217;t say enough how deeply sorry and ashamed I feel, and I apologize again from the bottom of my heart.&#8221;</span></p>
<p>Cabello, an immigrant herself, has dabbled in political activism. For example, at the end of her music video for &#8220;Havana,&#8221; text appears dedicating the song to recipients of the Obama-enacted DACA, or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, immigration program. “This is dedicated to the Dreamers,” text reads at the end of the video, as noted by <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/story/camila-cabello-dedicates-havana-music-video-to-daca-dreamers">W Magazine</a>.</p>
<p class="article-paragraph">&#8220;Before the 2016 presidential election, Cabello penned a <a href="https://www.popsugar.com/latina/Camila-Cabello-Her-Cuban-Background-42239921" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">letter</a> about being a Cuban-Mexican immigrant in the United States,&#8221; the magazine noted. &#8220;She writes of her experience, &#8216;I didn&#8217;t realize it then, but, boy, does it hit me now. I realize how scary it must have been for them &#8230; to decide to start from the ground up.'&#8221;</p>
<p>Cabello has also voiced her opposition to President Donald Trump.</p>
<p>“I’m shocked,” she told <a href="https://variety.com/2019/music/features/camila-cabello-fifth-harmony-taylor-swift-trump-1203290123/">Variety</a> this summer, regarding Trump&#8217;s feud with the far-left &#8220;Squad&#8221; of freshman congresswoman. “It’s tragic. I can’t believe he’d say something so disgusting.”</p>
<p>“That could have been me,” she continued. “That’s also what I was thinking as I was looking at the images of kids being held against their will. I was, like, there is literally no difference between these people and my mom.”</p>

https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2019/12/Screen-Shot-2019-12-19-at-11.51.40-AM.png

<p>Last week, Katherine Miller at BuzzFeed published an essay on how the 2010s &#8220;broke our sense of time.&#8221; On the same day, Georgetown University released a survey showing the average voter thinks we are &#8220;two-thirds of the way to the edge of a civil war.&#8221;</p>
<p>I have no idea what the &#8220;edge&#8221; of a civil war is, but I do think we are at a moment of serious discontent in the country, and I think it is directly related to the point of Miller&#8217;s essay about algorithms reordering our lives. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and the rest of the internet now show us content in a timeline designed to increase our interaction and our clicks. Their algorithms have taken us out of chronology.</p>
<p>With the algorithm, what is old can be new again. Things that happened a week ago appear repeatedly in our timelines as if they are fresh and new. People now visit places that they see repeatedly on Instagram because others are going there. People get mad at news because news is designed to get them mad. Hate clicks generate revenue for news sites. Outrage holds your attention.</p>
<p>The algorithm feeds the fire. Teen suicide rates have climbed since the introduction of the iPhone — the moment our national addiction to screens began. People used the blame the 24-hour news cycle. Now we have the algorithmic news cycle, where news from two years ago can show up like it is new to drive anxiety and outrage. Kids on Instagram and Snapchat can now, over and over again, relive the images of their friends at the parties they didn&#8217;t even know were happening, driving their depression. Their parents can see the selectively edited footage of a news event designed to drive their outrage and then continue seeing it over and over as others share it. None of it slips by unseen.</p>
<p>Social media companies share some of the blame for taking us out of chronology and putting us into algorithms designed not to show us new, interesting stuff but to keep us using sites and services — to keep us clicking.</p>
<p>Add to all of this the decreasing tolerance for Grace, and the situation is spiraling chaotically toward violence. Each of us is now defined by the worst thing we have done, which is helpfully recirculated by others on social media. There is no need to improve or grow up because we will never be credited with doing so when one person with a social media audience can tie us back to the worst thing we have done. College athletes are now routinely destroyed for things they did as teenagers. Guys raising money for charity are blackballed by decade-old tweets from when they were going through puberty. The algorithm amplifies the damage.</p>
<p>There is, of course, a cure for this, but it is one no one has incentive to provide when everyone and everything is now anchored in the digital. Get offline and into your community. Scripture says to seek the welfare of the city in which you are in exile, and there you will find your welfare. But too few are doing that because the city has no algorithm. It has something worse — physical human beings. We would all rather stay online in digital communities we have created, filled with usernames and faces that look and think like us and share our interests and feelings.</p>
<p>Unplugging, however, may be our only hope. Our Facebook friend is not going to bring us dinner when we are sick or water our flowers when we are gone. The actual human being next door just might. That requires we get to know them, appreciate them despite their differences and dare to live a chronological existence with them, where yesterday stays yesterday and tomorrow is something we can look forward to together. Tomorrow has an actual sunrise that we can appreciate with a physical smile on a physical face in a physical place unique to us — not shared by thousands in an Instagram algorithm and hashtag.</p>
