I posted something about the shooting on Twatter right after it happened. For 4 and a half days, I had shitloads of likes and retweets and not a single dissenting comment. Suddenly, on the 5th day, a couple very heavy personal insults over it, and a much smaller group are liking THAT - without a single like or retweet. Twatter definitely seems to be in a reorg period. Everybody is moving in tandem like a hive mind. IRex and B could very well have been plants all along. It's not worth devoting a bunch of research time to. Just keep it in mind as "nothing that happens there should be taken at face value." Just reinforcing what most already knew.
The only thing I have ever seen/read on this claimed (and they weren't wishy washy about it) that the higher your "state," the more you can't be affected by this stuff, and I remember that "source" focusing on cell phone signals and the damage they do but also extending well beyond that. The happier you stay, the less influence this stuff has. You become immune. It makes sense - they can intensify conditions that already exist but they can't create them out of nothing. Think about it. If they could we would all have been robots decades ago and Trump would never exist as POTUS. They rely 98% on deception to appear more omnipotent than they are.
You have a point … it's like those people who run around making sure everybody knows they're a "native" of whatever state they live in … as if we're all supposed to fall to our knees in worship and recognize their divine birthrights to superiority over the common man.
