The fact is, some people will just want to give their opinion and move on For me it is less about a persons opinion on this situation and more about people dropping claims about the people & situation without even providing a source for it when politely asked (as how can we form an opinion on it ourselves?). I understand the many reasons someone might not want to explore and expand on their own opinions in depth here, but when asked for the bare minimum regarding a claim (I'm not asking for evidence, I just want to know where they heard it from so we can all think for ourselves about it and look into it) they go silent (but still post an interact in the thread?). That is some real toxicity; spreading claims about people which can grow out of hand, getting repeated as fact, and refusing to even talk about something they felt was important enough to share in the first place. edit: They Dm'd me very important context. Well, in THAT case I totally can trust your wild claims at this time. Edited April 9 by Sauce Dog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
