Is anything remotely likely to change as a result of this on a systemic level or otherwise?

Maybe some future school shooter wannabe will notice that they barely even report on school shootings anymore, and Uvalde even reelected the piece of shit sheriff that let all those kids die. Maybe they will see this shooter being treated like some kind of hero, and decide to hunt Billionaires or CEOs instead.
After enough of those, the world will be drastically improved, or the surviving billionaires will finally bring about some real gun control legislation.

Elons carrying his kids around as human shields so there’s that.

Correct me if I'm wrong but Elon did nothing to compare with what Brian did.

Elon has really helped ramped up the societal breakdown by messing with the x algorithm. People are losing the plot.

That's pretty far from causing the suffering and death of thousands, right?

Not really. He scammed Trump into the White House and there will be a lot of suffering and death in his mass deportation plans.

"will be", eh? Well until he's actually done his thousands of dead and suffering, try to keep some perspective.

And try to think for yourself a little.

I'm not sure, but locals tagged "Deny, Defend, Depose" near me. If nothing else, seems there'll be good branding made of it.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess nope. What do I win?
