Utah village. Spencer Cox (R) criticized technology companies as “conflict entrepreneurs”, which have replaced Americans against each other, which requires the public to retrieve its agency.
“I can’t insist on enough losses that social media and internet are for all of us, those dopamine hits.
Cox, a liberal Republican, said that he has seen the incident “in real -time since the sad death of Charlie Kirk” and “in every corner of our society”.
“Conflict entrepreneurs are taking advantage of us,” he continued. “And we are losing our agency. And we have to take it back. We have to stop it. We have to go back to the community, care about our neighbors, things that make Americans great, serving each other, serving each other, improving themselves, exercising, sleeping, taking away all those things that take away from us.”
Cox has been praised for his response to the killing of right -wing political activist Charlie Kirk, who was badly shot at a college event at Utah Valley University on Wednesday.
In an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union”, Cox said, although Kirk said “some very inflammatory things,” he “said some other things about forgiveness.”
Cox said, “He said that when things become dark, they keep our phone down, read the Holy Scripture, go to the church, talk to their neighbors. He said that we have to attach, and that is what I appreciate the most about Charlie Kirk,” Cox’s said.
