Yeah, it’s a case of people being manipulated into harmful actions. I’m saying ‘besides’ because it feels like a different category of social situation than seeing someone take some public action online and deciding for yourself to take action too.
One of the killings was, as far as we know, purely mimetic and (allegedly) made by someone (@Maximilian Snyder) who never even interacted online with Ziz, so I don’t think it’s an invalid example to bring up actually.
This is a very big “besides”!
