    According to the lawsuits, YouTube and Reddit “transformed and addicted” Gendron and prepared him for the attack on Tops market.

      They’re claiming “I went through a tragedy and want money, give me a settlement out of court quickly.” Anyone that thinks this will go to court and win is a nut.

      I dunno about reddit but it’s no secret that YouTube will push you down a rabbit hole with their algorithm. Watch one video popular with right wing people and suddenly everything is about “Jewish space lasers” and “antifa coming to murder you”
