TheLeadenSeaDoes he usually walk up to random people on the street who aren’t wearing headphones to try start conversations? 😬

It’s strange to me that this would be considered out of bounds. “Pickup artists” aside, this really ought to be more normal.
I wish someone would do that to me in real life. I’d tell them about how a popular coffeeshop in our city is run by a straight up cult and the employees are all members whose wages go into a “shared purse” controlled by the cult.
Because unlike the guy in the OP, I recognize I’m not the main character. I’m the NPC in the tavern who sends the protagonist on a side quest to take down a cult.
But then it turns into a moral lesson when it turns out that cult was actually a cooperative and the person who told you the original rumor a real estate developer that wanted the property
So there was an “article” written about the cult, but it was written by the head of the church. The article itself painted the group in an extremely positive light… The comments, on the other hand, were largely from concerned parents, siblings, and friends who had lost loved ones to the cult and no longer had contact. They’ve been active since 2007, this isn’t a meme.
