Influencers want to make everyone angry and miserable, to feed the outrage machine, to take advantage of insecurity. Influence is power. Their game is naked. It's not the love of gentle persuasion or the respectful appeal to the reader's intellect. We all fall for it. But we don't have to.

Ahmed al Ahmed, the man who tackled one of the Bondi killers, became an Australian citizen 3 years ago.
His deed was "his way of conveying his gratitude for staying in Australia, for being granted citizenship."
He took 5 bullets, and fears he'll lose his left arm.
