Many have warped senses of how they can save the world from itself. Semi-messianic.

Some (arcola as a prime example) are just peddling alternative cures for anything and everything that ails one.

But there are many that just want to be disrupters. Get their names in print, no matter how bad it makes them look. Same personality disorder as that former guy.

And then, of course, there are the programmed bots (real and robotic) that are trying in inject disruption into every part of the western world's discourse. Guessing dear old vlad from the USSR, kim from NK, apparatchik from CA. Maybe a few SMERSHs also.
