Another conservative religious extremist, of course.

I wish they'd specify the app. I used to see casual calls for violence against The Jews on Facebook all the damned time, and reporting it never did a thing.

But I haven't been on Facebook in years, and I'm curious if they've started to bother pretending they care.

Omar Alkattoul, the perpetrator, is an anti-Semite. His name deserves to be tied to his atrocious actions.

It doesn’t work that way. You’re just giving them a platform to inspire other idiots who also want to see their name in lights. Want to know the real reason school shooters are more of a thing in the USA then Germany? Because in Germany the press doesn’t publish the perpetrator’s name.

Yes. This is why in Germany shootings aren't a thing. No source, no other factors considered, no need to address the different laws in place, no explaining why other European countries have low numbers of shootings... nope, it's clearly just because of publishing the shooter's name. 🙄

Elevated amounts of antisemitic rhetoric distributed through social media via well known celebrity platforms surely has nothing to do with elevated amounts of antisemitic violence /s

This is my experience with both YouTube and Instagram but ive been reporting hateful disinformation not direct calls for violence... in other words it seems none of the comments or channels I've reported on YT and insta have been changed/taken down in any way shape or form

> his planned attack was in retaliation for the 2019 mosque shootings in Christchurch, New Zealand

... am I the only one wondering how a bunch of Jewish folks from New Jersey play into that...? Shouldn't he hate other white supremacists?

He’s an 18 year old Muslim doing this in the name of Islam and Palestine against the “right wing ideology of the Jews”

It’s certainly possible he is left leaning

Wanna know something crazy? I got put in Facebook jail twice last week. Still have some restrictions my account.

The first time was when someone was mad at Biden calling some MAGAs fascists. So I showed the photo at a Trump rally, and said it looks very very similar to (shows a photo of Nazi's in Germany doing the salute. 24 hours time out for "hate speech." For the Hilter Nazi photo. Not the maga one.

Then the 2nd time was even crazier. Someone was saying Kanye speaks truth and knows what he's doing.

So I replied, well Hitler made animal abuse a felony, and was a great orator. Orator just means someone is is able to give a good speech in front of a crowd. It doesn't mean you agree with the speech. Just someone is skilled at speaking. I followed that up with, but it doesn't mean he really had good traits.

Another 24 hours ban and can't go live or sell stuff for 60 days. Not that I care about those things.

So twice I said anti fascsist stuff, bad mouthed Hitler, and that is what was against Facebook's community standards. But I've been called a demonrat, baby killer, commie, 100s of times. And those comments still up. Facebook is weird. They have no community standards.
