I mean I get what you're saying but... One is a hairy apeman people claim to see in the woods, the other is companies doing something unethical and shady to improve their bottom line which there is absolutely precedent for.

Yeah it's unlikely this story is real but your analogy makes no sense

there was probably some profit to be made, they'd totally do that. it's not like they would be held accountable

Both are things people will believe without evidence because they want to believe it.

A hairy ape man in the woods is cool. Shitting on businesses is cool.
