Electrons are negatively charged, and fly apart unless there’s a more-or-less equal number of protons. Electrons are a lot lighter than protons so move easier, and electrons deciding to be somewhere with more protons and less electrons is basically lightning.
Neutrons don’t have an electrical charge. They just sit there being gravitational.
Honestly sounds like Hanlon’s Razor on Google’s part. No collusion necessary, just can’t be bothered to maintain/staff an actual effective system.
