          i’m saying it is not atypical by any means for a social media platform to remove profiles of mass shooters. for as long as I can remember, every single time it happens and their social media is found, and it’s subsequently removed. i know this sub is dedicated to hating Musk but you just look stupid when you spin narratives like this. People in this thread are calling for his arrest over it saying that he’s hiding evidence of a crime.

            Facebook does the same thing, and it doesn’t hide evidence because banning someone’s account doesn’t remove their profile’s data. It’s still there for foi requests, warrants, and subpoenas. These social media companies aren’t gonna host a mass shooter’s profile. It’s like how they banned Trump, that wasn’t “hiding evidence,” and it’s likely if you hate Elon you were also loving that Twitter banned Trump.

            It’s blatantly obvious he was trying to hide the shooters connection to Republicans and Trump. Come on now.

                What is evidence?! I’ll just pout like a child and call the system rigged rather than look at my own wrong doing! What is this shit?! Who makes these decisions?!

                  can you find me any major mass shooter who had their social media profile stay around after the news broke

                  Here’s a source for you https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-07-06/tech-firms-delete-mass-shooters-accounts-but-it-s-not-enough

                  Mass shooting events like the one that happened July 4 near Chicago typically set off an-all-too-common chain of procedures at tech companies: unearth the attacker’s online presence, capture possibly incriminating posts and quickly shut their accounts.

                  proof that it’s a common procedure to do exactly this across pretty much all social media platforms. interested to hear what sort of stupid shit you have to say back to this.

            Arguably analyzing such profiles would likely show that nearly all nowadays are at least in part radicalized via social media. Turns out if you rattle millions of grenades a few explode.
