Since you don’t have a clue, commenting on the death of a child would be the last by “OH wait or Who’. Would not be my first thought.

It is so sad that such a young child in today’s spotlight has died of suspected abuse. I hope she is at peace.

"Suspected Abuse"?

You got that from the article citing a "Go Fund Me" page set up trying to make money after their "Influencer career" crashed and burned?

"Her controversial content, which often came littered with slurs, including the N-word, amassed Lil Tay over 3.3 million Instagram followers."

No comment on her dropping "N-Bombs" and other slurs all over the place?

For the life of me, I don’t think I will ever figure out exactly what a social influencer is or how in the world anyone could possibly be so stupid that they would be influenced by someone on social media?

Or... she posted it herself to generate buzz. Hmmm?

Why don’t you check your sources out before you print fake news and who in their right mind would follow social influencers?

She is at peace. If she's dead she doesn't care. If she is not, she got lots and lots of the attention she was hoping to get.

In fairness, even media like the Los Angeles Times were posting stories about this. And the family would neither confirm nor deny immediately.

That's actually 2 different statements in the same sentence.

In fairness to the person who posted that, there appear to be conflicting stories, either by confusion or by design.

As far as "who would follow social influencers", all I can say is that Jedi mind tricks only work on the weak minded.
