If you haven't noticed, these posts that steer the discussion in another direction are always attempt to defuse the blame. If you've ever been on reddit, you'll notice people trying really hard to shift blame, change goal posts, point fingers. And they're always highly upvoted.
It's social media PR management 101. You just need a bot farm and you can bet every marketing company does this for anyone that pays.
