Inventing crises to advance unpopular agendas.
Far more common, especially in the 21st Century, has been a left-wing, hysterical style of inventing scandals and manipulating perceived tensions for political advantage.
At first, accusers properly outed dozens of mostly liberal celebrities, actors, authors, and CEOs for their prior and mostly covered-up sexual harassment and often assault.
The once legitimate movement had morphed into general hysteria.
MeToo hysteria ended when too many liberal grandees were endangered.
Most dramatically, former Joe Biden senatorial aide Tara Reade came forward during the 2020 campaign cycle with charges that front-runner Biden had once sexually assaulted her - and was trashed by the liberal media.
Suddenly, a hysterical lie took hold: American police were waging war against Black males.
Sometimes hyped crises lead to these contrived left-wing hysterias - like the January 6 violent "Armed insurrection" or the "Fascist" "Ultra-MAGA" threat.
