This is the other side of the equation. If this shooting had happened with Twitter 1.0, none of the good AND shitty posts would ever be seen. They'd all be wiped, just like Facebook does now with anything they disagree with.
For all of the #VoteBlue crowd, there's something from tonight's day 1 of the RNC that you really need to take note of.
Sean O’Brien, the president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, the largest and most diverse labor union in the US, spoke in favor of both Trump and also the Republican party.
This is the first time in all of history that the Teamsters, the epitome of organized labor in the US, have ever participated in a Republican convention.
Everyone, regardless of party loyalty, needs to take note of the gravitas of this fact. It really illustrates just how far out of touch with reality and with ordinary Americans Biden and the Democratic party have become in recent years.

Here's the official story so far: a random 20 year old acting completely alone walked within 150 yards of a presidential campaign rally with a rifle, climbed onto a rooftop in full view of Secret Service snipers, set up his shot and fired without anyone intervening and with no help from anyone. This 20 year old is also so politically radical as to attempt an assassination and yet not radical enough to have ever posted any political writings or commentary on any social media site ever in his life. He also wrote no manifesto and left behind no indication about why he did it. His last and only political act, before attempting to kill the Republican candidate, was to register as a Republican. You must believe this and ask no questions about it or else you are a conspiracy theorist. And one thing we know about assassination attempts is that there's never any conspiring involved.
