AI is too common.

I've also seen too many panics over things where it turned out to be a "false flag" operation, right/left/center, to raise awareness about something or other or just make people afraid of the other side because they're all evil and horrible people and we all must come together against them.

The truth will come along and I fail to see a reason to judge based on incomplete information. (Life's too short, there are other things to be outraged and concerned about.)
