social media outside of lemmy has a LOT more people condemning than condoning the assassin.
That's disappointing but not surprising for anglos.
agreed, but the extent to which is mind blowing for me since part of me was hoping that americans were getting better at understanding why our situations suck after the election and this sort of response is making it crystal clear that we're at least generations away from that kind of understanding; i just hope that their efforts to solidify ukraine's leverage against trump or our unwavering support for isreal doesn't push us into ww3 before that happens.
That hasn't been my experience looking on insta, youtube comments and twitter, it seemed like at least 80% celebratory. And in person, coworkers were talking about it almost gleefully. Not everyone condoning necessarily but the general attitude seemed to be "well it seems like a natural response" and many comments of stories about people's personal experiences with horrible insurance companies.
i switched to tiktok and got the same thing you did; i think that there's a generational divide since the people i follow on the other platforms are from my generation while tiktok and lemmy are not.
