    When you scramble this many ghouls to check every single detail of a person's life history, you can make even the most well-adjusted person seem like a complete fringe lunatic. This is a concerted effort to make this guy seem as deranged as possible, just a wild crazy man, or a poor victim of online radicalization, depending on what tone you want for your think piece.

    You can turn the ultimate protest into a cautionary tale about the seductive rhetoric of the violent online left or a mental health awareness month-style unheard cry for help.

      Or just drag the truth out like taffy - a visit to a music festival becomes "attended orgies regularly" while enrollment in a university becomes "taught by Marxist professors". Or outright lie.

      Curious to see they've lost all the pictures of him in a military uniform. I've never seen the media describe a soldier's death with so few pictures in full dress.
