This allows the AR folks to spread misinformation that horses are mistreated, drugged up, etc when in most cases the opposite is true, but then again we are in an age where you make up your own reality, right? It's just a matter of how many you can bring along with you.

Exactly, and half the 'people' they bring along aren't even real people. It's BS stuff like fake upvotes and downvotes on platforms like reddit that pull the sheep along for the ride, shaping opinions of the younger generation via social media.
