I noticed something lately when browsing and interacting via comment sections on YouTube.
When something goes down then at the same time the platform goes into a 'comment lockdown' of instantly flagging and deleting comments far more zealously than normal. Like back after Pennsylvania? You couldn't even post 'I like ham'. I mean you -could- but you'd see it vanish when you hit F5. This went on for close to 72 hours.
Makes me giggle thinking of employees of these platforms having a 'Paulcon' system that lights up and indicates when they really gotta go HAM on comment sections.
Like let's say somehow Iran really does it and creates a second sun over Tel Aviv. Can you imagine whatever human, non AI bots are left working at these places running around in a panic trying to play Jannie/Goalie?
Well... I'm probably just some regard seeing things where things aren't. But it does seem to be happening now....
Basically what I am spelling out is there might be a way to scry some kind of impending shit sandwich based on social media platforms being in the know and going into comment lockdowns.
