    Just got this email from my kids’ school:

    Dear Families and Staff:

    Our school districts recently learned of an anonymous, nationwide threat against schools that is being shared on social media outlets such as TikTok. The general threat toward all U.S. schools declares Friday, Dec. 17, as “American School Shooting Day.” The posts warn about the possibility of nationwide shootings or bomb threats associated with this day. We have partnered with local law enforcement to vigilantly investigate whether there are any local connections to these social media posts. At this time, law enforcement has not acquired any evidence that would deem these threats as credible in our area. Out of an abundance of caution, our schools will be in close contact with law enforcement throughout the day on Friday. Please take this opportunity to talk with your students about the appropriate use of social media, and the seriousness and resulting consequences of making any kind of threat. Encourage your students to speak with you or an adult at school if they see or hear something so immediate action can be taken. In addition, if anyone in our community sees something suspicious, please report it to the school immediately or call local law enforcement. We appreciate your support and partnership.

    People will always clutch their pearls especially when they can make it about gun violence and children. I found this article on it.

    How long until companies like tiktok get in bed with government on gun control to the point of creating or secretly promoting fake social media movements for this kind of thing? Seems somewhat inevitable given the lengths we’ve seen them go to influence politics in recent years.

      You’re assuming they’re not already?

      Not an assumption I’d make.
