French President Blames Video Games and TikTok for Riots

French President Emmanuel Macron has suggested that social media platforms like TikTok and Snapchat, as well as video games, are contributing to the ongoing riots in France following the fatal police shooting of a 17-year-old delivery driver. Macron plans to work with tech companies to remove sensitive content and French police are investigating those who post rallying cries on social media. However, scientific research does not support a direct link between video games and violence. The protests in France highlight long-standing issues of police brutality and inequality.
