Do I think if twitter had never existed and all other media/social media did, what happened would have still happened? Yeah, absolutely.

twitter as a medium is much more immediate and focussed than phone in ramblings on a news channel. People have a chance to read it over and over. Twitter is a much more effective platform for radicalisation than tv will ever be

It really isn't. It's one of the worst platforms for any discussion because of it's very nature. FB is basically a right wing militia site, so it just shows a stunning lack of understanding.
