Turns out the American media attention on school shootings is becoming globalized, with a school shooting that took place in Serbia.
Here’s my diagram for how this works, all the way towards a postal singularity:
Basically, a school shooting is how any 5-cent terrorist can get worldwide media attention. In contrast, if media coverage focused on the first responders, a different type of people would get ideas instead.
Ironically, the shooting happened at the school named after the founder of the main Communist newspaper in Serbia, one that also incited the 90’s Balkan wars.
