Response to threat or the idea of dangerous or forbidden information is high. People prob. Don't expect to actually encounter an infohazard yet respond relatively strongly to it in comparison to mild recommendations.

I don't usually wield such energies though they are commonly wielded. Ive understood intellectually Threat (and heroic transcendence I recall) are the most likely things to go viral.

In the case of threat, the emotions of panic, fear, and anger, as well as expectation are all at their highest valence. I don't know if humans have particular linguistic or tonal markers of threat with the exception of swearing.

But other animals have calls to spread threat awareness rapidly through the social fabric. It's just good to get some engagement numbers. It's not scientific obvs. but it's enough to prime my own mind to see the power of this pattern.
