“It’s a social wave, a phenomenon difficult to describe. There are a lot of conspiracy theories, there are a lot of people who believe that a lot of money was put into it by certain characters. Those who are there know that it’s not about money, it’s about people connecting and things going viral. You need money to run a campaign, but you won’t do it if you have anyone’s bills.”
