I absolutely love how fired up the average YouTube commenter was about Honey... for about 72 hours. People completely unaffected in any way were demanding class action lawsuits, etc with seemingly no clue why they were even upset. Then the subject completely left their minds.

This observation is of course entirely anecdotal, but manufactured outrage is so fascinating, even if it currently eroding the very foundations of society.

I suppose as long as YouTubers and popular media can band together and talk about a thing, that will create a trend and give them all clicks and watch time.

There are definitely many things to be said about the irresponsible use of this power.
