    Yeah “fuelling the fire” is absolutely wrong. You don’t get the kind of spontaneous grass roots action across the country with any amount of social media activism. The headline is straight up misinformation.

    Maybe “fanning the flames” would be acceptable, but, honestly, why even spend the time to write an article about a butterfly flapping its wings in China when talking about a hurricane in Texas.
