Lol if you take the number of annual gun deaths in the US each year, you arguably are still in a civil war. 40000+ of your own killed each year just from guns alone. You kill more of yourselves each year than was lost in the entire gulf War of 1990 to 91.

But a majority of those gun deaths are suicides not murders: https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/04/26/what-the-....

You make no sense. You know that.

How many years are covered by "pre social media" and how many by "post social media" ? The difference is significant.
