I think what’s going down now with Charlie Kirk is a clear case of weaponized comments
The hateful comments about his death seem over-the-top & out-of-place - more akin to the vitriolic comments that were spewed out during Covid - after which we found out there was a huge influencer $$$ disinformation campaign
To me this seems more the case of what’s happening here - a few paid influencers set the trend of tone (in many camps) a throng of reaction follows as most people are played to higher social engineering ends
Robert Epstein has done some great exposure of the manipulation of online media through subtle obscure channels
