I wouldn't know about children's hospitals or children, particularly ill ones, being universally liked, there are places online (4chan is a too easy one, as was old R*ddit) and offline that were always holding eugenic views on the disabled, they just found an acceptable way to do this in a real world setting by targeting a more trendy group to hate first. A Trojan horse of bigotry if you will, though they probably see it as a 2 for 1 hatred special. One reason imo the antivax movement took off so strongly in the US, aside from low scientific literacy, is how this country has a horrific and long history of eugenics and mistreatment of various groups that is still seen as socially acceptable or even moral.

Now, if the chaos was handled to be of use to feds or other agencies I'd think so, they've been feeding the chuds' heads with trash for ages and this is just the terror chickens coming to roost. Now if said chickens get a little out of control, more funding for them to make them into dinners and the rest of the flock can be observed for potential use or left to their own devices.

The danger is always the chud chickens pulling a chickens in copters sort move, but the fascist uprising version, afterall the US inspired the world with its bigotry in the foundations of fascism for blackshirts and such, there's only so much it can be co-opted but the bourgeois love dangerous games for the sake of their economic system.
