The Buffalo shooting has focused attention on the role of Twitch, the gaming platform used by the gunman to broadcast a live stream of the massacre, amid renewed calls for tighter regulation of social media platforms.
Twitch allows creators, many with millions of followers, to stream themselves playing video games, chatting with fans, or simply going about their daily lives.
The Buffalo suspect, a self-confessed white supremacist who allegedly shot 11 Black and two white victims, killing 10 people, in what authorities said was a racially motivated hate crime, used a Twitch channel to livestream the assault from a helmet camera.
Amazon-owned Twitch said it took down the video within two minutes of the violence starting, but by that time it was already being shared elsewhere including on Facebook and Twitter. In a statement issued to the New York Times, Angela Hession, Twitch’s vice-president of trust and safety, said the site’s reaction was a “very strong response time considering the challenges of live content moderation, and shows good progress”.

There is no “lone-wolf” white Terrorists. This is a tactic adopted in the late 1970’s. Gained more traction in the mid 80’s/early 90’s.
The white domestic #Terrorists, have adopted the strategy of working as small terror cells within the USA.
This is what the FBI.gov is finally acknowledging, after decades of aiding and abetting WHITE NATIONALIST HATE GROUPS, by NOT listing them as the domestic terrorist organization they’ve ALWAYS BEEN.

A white supremacist group linked to multiple homicides has one of its largest chapters in Washington state, according to a report by the investigative-reporting nonprofit ProPublica.
The neo-Nazi group, known as Atomwaffen Division, is known for its recruiting of young white men, attracted to a violent ideology that idolizes Adolf Hitler and Charles Manson. The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), which tracks hate groups, says Atomwaffen is organized “as a series of terror cells that work toward civilizational collapse.”
Citing encrypted chat logs containing 250,000 messages, ProPublica on Friday reported the group’s members cheering the murder of a gay and Jewish University of Pennsylvania student, allegedly by a man who was an Atomwaffen member. That’s one of five killings linked to the group’s members or close associates, according to the SPLC.

in·cel | \ ˈin-ˌsel
\
plural incels
Definition of incel
: a person (usually a man) who regards himself or herself as being involuntarily celibate and typically expresses extreme resentment and hostility toward those who are sexually active
The term "incels" emerged from a Reddit group in which tens of thousands of users, most of them young men, commiserate about their lack of sexual activity—many of them placing the blame on women.
— Josh O'Kane
In recent years, a number of these men have identified as so-called incels, short for involuntary celibates, an online subculture of men who express rage at women for denying them sex and who frequently fantasize about violence and celebrate mass shooters in their online discussion groups.
— Julie Bosman et. al
History and Etymology for incel
involuntary celibate
NOTE: The word incel apparently first appeared on a Usenet newsgroup in the late 1990's. See the article by Ben Zimmer, "How 'Incel' Got Hijacked," published online at Politico Magazine, May 8, 2018

1.) HeadLine : “Violent White Folks Who Were Arrested With Loving Care By Police”
WRITTEN BY NEWSONE STAFF

UPDATED: 10:02 a.m. ET, Aug. 3, 2020 —
The notion of white folks being able to commit violent crimes only to be peacefully arrested is neither a coincidence nor a foreign concept as opposed to the manner in which Black and brown suspects are treated when facing similar allegations, which far too often ends in death.

2.) HeadLine : “White killers go to Burger King: Race, Planned Parenthood and our diseased white privilege”
White shooters live and maybe get a Whopper on the way to jail. Black suspects don't get the same royal treatment.

Online hate under scrutiny after Buffalo shooter streamed massacre on Twitch
Analysis: Call for social media firms to be held accountable for violent racist views ‘spreading like a virus’

The Buffalo shooting has focused attention on the role of Twitch, the gaming platform used by the gunman to broadcast a live stream of the massacre, amid renewed calls for tighter regulation of social media platforms.
Twitch allows creators, many with millions of followers, to stream themselves playing video games, chatting with fans, or simply going about their daily lives.
The Buffalo suspect, a self-confessed white supremacist who allegedly shot 11 Black and two white victims, killing 10 people, in what authorities said was a racially motivated hate crime, used a Twitch channel to livestream the assault from a helmet camera.
Amazon-owned Twitch said it took down the video within two minutes of the violence starting, but by that time it was already being shared elsewhere including on Facebook and Twitter. In a statement issued to the New York Times, Angela Hession, Twitch’s vice-president of trust and safety, said the site’s reaction was a “very strong response time considering the challenges of live content moderation, and shows good progress”.
The fragmentary nature of modern social media platforms has added to the moderation difficulties. As news of the shooting went viral on TikTok, the platform’s moderators battled to take down uploads of the footage – but were much less successful at taking down videos that directed viewers to Twitter accounts where they could watch the shooting in full.

The role of livestreaming is only part of the question. The shooter broadcast his intentions in advance – including by preparing a to-do list on the chat platform Discord – which meant some of his followers were ready to download the video as it was being broadcast.
Initial repeat uploads appeared to come from supporters; however, within hours, the bulk of shares came from users seeking to satisfy the curiosity of others online – a similar pattern to that seen following the Christchurch shooting in 2019, which was initially livestreamed on Facebook before being distributed across YouTube, Twitter and Facebook itself. That live stream, however, ran for 17 minutes before Facebook’s moderators brought it down – a response time almost 10 times slower than that of Twitch."
