I don't see it as "hysteria," more like passionate, zealous, incensed and outraged.

That's an understatement. Death threats aimed at these young DOGE tech nerds flooded Reddit and Bluesky. Reddit even shut down a popular subreddit to stem the tide.

This is simply incorrect. There was no "flood." There were a very, very small number of isolated comments that I spotted and they were removed and/or downvoted.
