Part 7/11:

Historically, fictional portrayals, such as the TV series Blue Bloods or movies like The Batman, have depicted the "knockout game" or similar violence as racially motivated hate crimes or organized criminal efforts.

Efforts to link the attacks to incel ideology or coordinated gangs are largely dismissed by critics as speculative or conspiratorial.
