Chairman Comer Invites CEOs of Discord, Steam, Twitch, and Reddit to Testify on Radicalization of Online Forum Users - United States House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform

“The politically motivated assassination of Charlie Kirk claimed the life of a husband, father, and American patriot. In the wake of this tragedy, and amid other acts of politically motivated violence, Congress has a duty to oversee the online platforms that radicals have used to advance political violence. To prevent future radicalization and violence, the CEOs of Discord, Steam, Twitch, and Reddit must appear before the Oversight Committee and explain what actions they will take to ensure their platforms are not exploited for nefarious purposes,”
I agree that social media is fucking horrible, but I don't trust this administration to handle it.
Notice that Twitter isn't included? And obviously, Truth Social. No chance in hell the "social media" platform owned by Trump is going to be questioned. And why the fuck is Steam getting called in?
Then there's how this is written. Highlighting Kirk and sidelining everything else to and amid other acts of politically motivated violence.
This is McCarthyism all over again but instead of commies the target is "radicals". Next few years in Amurica are going to be interesting. Really wish they weren't our neighbors.

*phew* MERB flew under the radar.
I had no particular wish to see Charlie Kirk or any other politician (if he can be called a politician) dead, but I honestly I don't give a fuck that he is. If the whole fucking bunch of them fell dead tomorrow I wouldn't give a shit about them personally, although I'd hate the chaos. Still, I'd not advocate just going out and shooting them. Honestly I'd rather just jail almost all of them. I'm going to miss Robert Redford a lot more than I would any of those fuckers if they fell over dead tomorrow. RIP Bob.
