In the past few days, I feel like I've seen a significant uptick in CEO sympathy comments, comments expressing righteous indignation about how anyone could possibly be celebrating the murder of an innocent widdle guy, etc.

Especially so in the comment sections of official news media posts.

My conspiracy brain take is some billionaire got upset that there was a little too much class solidarity and anti-CEO sentiment going around, and started writing checks to paid troll farm to try and get some control back over the narrative.
