Here Are All The Hoaxes Being Spread About The Las Vegas Shooting #MandalayBay buzzfeed.com/ryanhatesthis/… via @BuzzFeedNews
Far-right trolls are creating a conspiracy theory about Geary Danley. He was listed as being married to person of interest Marilou Danley.
When 4chan doxed Marilou, they found his account and saw that he likes tons of anti-Trump pages. Which they are now jumping on.
And now his name and photos are being circulating by far-right Twitter accounts, accusing him of being a "neo-liberal" and "alt-left'
There are at least 6 4chan threads workshopping the narrative that Geary Danley and his family are dangerous leftists happening right now
Also, apparently Google is putting 4chan threads in their top story unit now? So, the number one hit for his name is a /pol/ thread.
The @gatewaypundit wrote up Geary Danley as the #mandalaybay shooter and then deleted their post.
In case you're wondering how this works, here's a 4chan thread called "CONTROL THE NARRATIVE. DON'T LET FAKE NEWS TAKE CONTROL."
