It's funny because I'm pretty sure the Internet at large has bubbled itself off enough by now that there's practically no chance for toxoplasma to truly spread here. You're either in the "cops killed an innocent black man who was begging for mercy" camp or "Floyd was obviously high as balls and probably already dead by the time the cops got to him" camp, and I can't think of a major platform where both sides would simultaneously show up in enough numbers to feed the cycle.

Possible scissor statement construction: Given George Floyd's obviously disturbed state, had the first responders been EMTs instead of police, he may have been more forthright about his condition and would therefore still be alive today.
