What did Edison do to make people hate AC?

Thomas Edison attempted to discredit alternating current (AC) technology, which was championed by Nikola Tesla and George Westinghouse, by launching a campaign that highlighted its dangers. He conducted public demonstrations where he electrocuted animals using AC to showcase its perceived hazards, portraying it as unsafe for consumers. This aggressive tactic was part of the "War of Currents," where Edison aimed to promote his own direct current (DC) system as the superior and safer option.
