So, in summary: this particular issue is a hot-button topic for these ~200 people, we don't really have any conclusive evidence but buzzword salad AI big data yada yada, therefore reptilians.
There is nothing in this article but wild speculation over highly circumstantial data. Most people who hold strongly to one political view or another experience "a surge of activity" when their personal pet peeve topic becomes a talking point in the circles they frequent. This "report" proves nothing more that a number of people happen to have somewhat overlapping social circle. Occam's razor applies in full force: the simplest explanation to any given evidence is the most likely one, and therefore the most sensible explanation to assume unless evidence indicates otherwise. If a lot of people talk a lot whenever a certain issue comes around... maybe they just really want to talk a lot about it.
