Why? Because it's wrong. Because we expect that at least some people will not follow the trend of the masses and will actually think in-depth about this. Statements like that tweet are so superficial it makes me cringe that some people actually give it room to grow and approve it, categorize everything as being that and be done with it. No. Let the masses do that because they do it out of ignorance. Masses react to things and feed ideas and thoughts that gain momentum. But there's no excuse for some intelligent analysts out there to entertain the masses and sadly that's what's happening in the world right now. Issues are getting treated with way more naivety right now and lack of responsibility. It's like even the brightest people lost the ability to think clearly. And that's a bigger problem.Sally Kohn ✔ @sallykohn

White shooter = mentally troubled lone wolf
It's okay for people to go with this and be like "hell yeah that's right"... It's understandable since it's not required from them to actually dig deeper. However It's not understandable when people smarter than this that carry a social responsibility act the same. And these type of statements are such trends right now."I question a world that has capacity to talk about 12 French victims @ #CharlieHebdo but not the 2k nigerians killed by Boko Haram this week”
It's the same thing. The media pretty much rides a trend that already exists. The media cannot create trends. It doesn't have that power. What power media has is taking an existing trend and blowing it out of proportion. But the trend is already there and it comes from the masses.Cilogy wrote:I think that tweet says more about the media and stereotype rather then the attitudes of white people. Maybe that was the intention.
