I fear you either misunderstand my comment or what martyrdom means. I'm no fan of the man who got shot. And for me he'll never be a martyr. But those who did like him can now hail him as such, make him a hero - for all the other people who liked him. Martyrdom is in the eye of the beholder.

When and where did you go to school? That capital A that looks more like the lowercase one I've only ever seen from people from North America.

Whoever wrote this was probably still in school and I would guess in a North American one because of the cursive they wrote in. I think they also copied the text, badly, and that explains the mistakes.

I fear it will the shooter's legacy that we will all remember the name. He may have otherwise continued his life as a weird, argumentative footnote in history. Now he will be a vessel of martyrdom that will fill itself with content poured in by those who instrumentalize his unfortunate death.

No, no, no, and no. If you see nothing but hateful and negative content, then you have been badly served by algorithms where they roam or you've been bad at building your feed on the fediverse.

Define civility.

Lol I read that as "first responders or 911" as in nine one one. I would say the addition of a / might have clarified it. But that doesn't diminish my failure at reading comprehension.

I'm fairly confident that you are generalizing this a bit and that there are police and fire fighting departments on this planet that employ nurses. In general though, first responders who get injured end up in the same system than the people they save and need medical attention: hospitals. If you are in need of nurse aftercare, you are probably off on sick leave - so what would the nurse actually do? Especially in the smaller bf-nowhere operations, I don't see how you could justify the cost. Plus, most firehouses have paramedics already. They're not the same as a nurse but bring a lot of similar skills.

If we are honest with ourselves, we all have biases that end in -phobia. They are on a siding scale and get more pronounced in certain situations. The assholes in society don't gaf about their biases and don't care if they say or do hurtful things as a result. The more enlightened people know about their lizard brain biases and try their best not to act on them.

Maybe you are a bit homophobic. But you are aware of your biases and you can make sure you don't act on them in a way that is hurtful to other people. Knowing is half the battle. So don't beat yourself up over it. From what I've been reading in your post you are doing it right.

(We are) committed to continually improving safeguards against harmful or inappropriate uses of the platform.

Effing funny. Turn it off then. It's not unintended use of the platform. It's at this point in time an uncontrollable operation.

Meanwhile, experts behind the latest investigation are appalled at Character's inability to ward off harmful content for underage users.

I must point out here that the first bulwark of corrective action is the purview of parents/guardians. You can blame these effing companies for having minor-grooming chat bots, which they should not have. Not even in a testing phase. But we cannot just work this one angle. We cannot let parents et al off the hook. You have to have a least three talks now with the kids. Birds and bees, social media and online bullying/predators, and so-called AI. As bad as I feel for the parents of teenagers who took their own life: it wasn't just the chat bot, was it.
