Mass shootings weren't even defined before. We didn't talk about them because they weren't tracked. Even now the definition of mass shooting isn't settled, with some definitions having about a dozen per year, and others having about 2 per day.

I'm not the guy who tried to claim an insane murderer is somehow representative of an entire political party.
Gotta go with "skate or die: bad n rad"
Plus it has a sweet soundtrack
I had similar experiences, and couldn't understand why they would discourage dialog and discussion around various issues. The thing is, they don't actually want dialog, they want to stamp out opposition to their views as though it never existed.
You probably commented on one of the verboten subreddits. That's how I got most of my bans.
I hate smoking stock photos. Clearly she has never smoked in her life.
Hah! I remember reddit
Do you actually believe this? I know a lot of conservatives, some more extreme than others, but none of them envision this kind of world, not even the ones that wanted to be at the Capitol on Jan 6. It's contrary to virtually all Christian, conservative values. The whole premise of this story wouldn't even hold up unless there were an extreme event causing a massive shortage of fertile women. In that case, there is no telling what kind of dystopia would emerge. Frank Herbert wrote "The White plague" in 1982 (a couple years before the handmaid's tale), where women were nearly wiped out altogether, and it plays out similar in some respects, wildly different in others. In any event, it's not a "goal" of any sane person, and certainly not the goal of half of the country.
Maybe, but the only reason this is notable is because of an uptick that is from the literal opposite of Christian right wing.
