Fear Factory

Industrial metal band that started out being a boderline Death metal band in 1991. Their vocalist, Burton Bell, was the first to introduce both death metal growling and switching to clean vocals. Fear Factory evolved into a sharper, more aggressive sound, and progressed from death metal to industrial with hints of techno here and there. They focus on how humankind is too addicted to technology to the point of being helpless without it, and see technology as the eventual downfall of humanity.
Demanufacture and Obsolete are good albums by Fear Factory.

I only fear BTS stans and no one else

A common phrase originated from Twitter, by the locals (general public) after seeing the intentional and often times unintentional and displays of power of the also called BTS Army. The phrase, got popular after an interaction between @jovanmhill and @jamescharles, where the later threatened the former with a lawsuit and got "I only fear BTS stans and no one else " as a reply.

Note: One should only fear BTS ARMY, (BTS stans) if one is disrespectful to the fandom or the band, they tend to be peaceful but you will feel their wrate by millions if you make that mistake.
JC: This is absolutely not funny. Delete this immediately or my lawyer will be in contact.

Fear mongering

Also called scare tactic. This is a strategy that various governments and news media uses in order to scare you into agreeing with their policies or points of view that usually involves some kind of protection or banning something which thus enacts more and more useless laws. This also helps keep the population under control as a scared population is easier to control and is more trusting of the government.

They usually fear monger by exaggerating the story or accounting of the events by using massive hyperboles, speak of the object from a negative standpoint and never from a neutral standpoint, use certain rhetorical words such as "dangerous", "lethal", "contagious", or "aggressive" and use only partial truth or no truth at all (aka lies). Usually true journalism and research is completely non-existent when using fear mongering techniques. When the story or segments airs on TV, they also use menacing or disturbing music to further bring out a fearful mood out of the viewers.
The government and media were using fear mongering when they talk about any sort of bacteria or virus.
