You must not have been reading a lot of comments. It was getting borderline absurd for 2 days. They sound alright by description, but all they did was brigade the comment sections spewing crap at anyone a cm off of their ideology

I spend all my time in the comments, there were annoying pigpooping GIFs and some trash comments but also some well reasoned and interesting comments from perspectives not often expressed in popular media. It's not like the comment sections never had trash comments and nonsence before.

I agree they were some well reasoned and interesting comments from perspectives not often expressed in popular media. But they were perspectives praising Russia's and China's horrible actions that I don't really want to deal with. I gave some of them reasoned answers as well, but I would rather not see that junk daily. Thoughtful and well reasoned doesn't mean it can't also be horrible destructive tankie garbage.
