Given that he put no effort in finding some arguments, this is a case of "negative publicity is publicity too"?

I would guess, yeah. But 80% of X looks like this, so I don't know what's engagement farming and what's normal posting in a community of radical idiots anymore.

They're barely just now accepting that CTE's from smashing their heads together for fun might be a bad idea, it's going to take centuries for them to realize their social media echo chambers are probably worse overall than actual head trauma, if only because brain rot is a very communicable disease and their population has no herd immunity.
