Agreed, but do you have any ideas in particular? I'm thinking more details in the Occurrence section would be good, as well as a more detailed description of the tactics.

There's a lot of it in politics now. Perhaps there always was but we've just got better at noticing it. Avida Dollarsher again 15:12, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
