The Influencer Who Weaponized Outrage: Danesh Noshirvan’s Synthetic TikTok Mob Exposed

A Dunkin’ Donuts parking lot spat became a national nightmare when TikTok influencer Danesh Noshirvan — known as ThatDaneshGuy — turned it into viral fuel for his next outrage campaign. His edited video falsely depicted Florida mom and business owner Jennifer Couture as a violent aggressor. What the original footage shows is a near-collision caused by another driver, Anglyke Reed, distracted while filming herself. But Noshirvan’s version — cut, narrated, and laced with commentary — told a different story. He called it “assault with a deadly weapon.” It wasn’t.

Soon after his post, Couture’s life imploded. Her phone exploded with hundreds of hateful texts and voicemails. Her business was bombarded with one-star reviews from fake profiles. Calls flooded her local police station demanding her arrest — and within weeks, she was charged. What no one knew then: the “public outcry” was mostly fake. Court filings and forensic analysis later revealed that up to 75% of the online engagement came from bot networks, spoofed calls, and AI-generated accounts linked to Noshirvan’s operation.

Noshirvan allegedly fabricated outrage using technology — creating synthetic mobs to simulate mass public anger. He even used voice-altering software to send intimidating messages that sounded like multiple callers. When Couture’s husband, Dr. Ralph Garramone, tried defending her, Danesh targeted his medical practice next, unleashing another wave of fake reviews and calls.

By the time the truth came out, Couture had lost her peace, reputation, and career stability. Federal courts sanctioned Noshirvan and his attorney for their roles in online harassment. The case has become a test of how far the First Amendment protects “influencers” who weaponize their platforms to terrorize private citizens with artificial outrage.

Investigative journalist Frank Parlato and Richard Luthmann expose how Danesh built his empire of deception — and how AI-fueled cancel culture is redefining harassment, accountability, and crime in the digital age.

This is not just about one influencer. It’s a glimpse into a new frontier of digital warfare — where a single man with bots, code, and a TikTok account can destroy lives at the push of a button.
