I feel like online mob mentality isn't studied enough, people know and understand this out in public during riots/looting, etc, but not many seem to understand that it's a lot easier and can get out of control online when it comes to hate threads or brigading. It's weird how many content creators let themselves get affected by such events.

It's been a breeze the last 4-5 years compared to the early days in that regard!
Yeah, that's true.
HIVE is just waiting for an anthropologist to come along and do a study. Only, I imagine, when the study results are published, everyone would disagree with the outcome of that study and it would see maybe 10c in votes :D
