True. Honestly whenever an incident happens like this that fits with a media narrative I’m extremely skeptical

I mean, I guess that situation with the "nonbinary" teen who was supposedly bashed to death is kind of similar (i.e. a false narrative, when the truth turned out to be the opposite), or the Simon Mol situation in Poland (guy from Africa who deliberately "gave" all those Polish chicks HIV), years back...

But yeah, pattern recognition is "-ism" or "-phobic", I guess...
