I mean it is a common sentiment that has been measured:

Beyond that if you are insinuating that it is a coordinated campaign of people doing this, I mean yeah that's probably true to some extent. But the reason why they are targeting that is because they know it is a weak point.
So posting an article showing that the cost of living is going down would make that kind of sentiment less justified.
