Daily News | ‘Replacement theory’ moves from fringe to reality with Buffalo mass shooting | Editorial
10 dead in Buffalo supermarket attack police call hate crime
It is difficult to connect the incidents to a singular event. Rather, they are part of a mass poisoning of the nation’s bloodstream, fueled by the lies, hate, and anger spewed daily on social media, Fox News and other right-wing outlets, and Trump-ignited MAGA followers. Indeed, Rep. Liz Cheney, hasher own Republican leaders of enabling “white nationalism, white supremacy, and antisemitism.”
Day by day, the fabric of the country is being torn apart by thousands of angry tweets, Facebook posts, and QAnon conspiracy theories. The compound effect is chipping away at our civil society and undermining our democracy. Because there appears to be no bottom for the GOP or “Fox & Friends,” it is up to voters and responsible leaders in business and government to call out the lies and hate — and work to bring an end to this absurdity.
