    What the fuck, what kind of bullshit is this? This is not how a sane discourse works. This is the worst case of ad-hominem/strawman I’ve seen in a while.

    “Yes, OP, you’re right that the CEO didn’t say that. But do we need the truth prevailing here? He’s a CEO!!! Why are you defending him?!”

    What a load of bullshit.

          You don’t do that for the poster. You do that for other readers.

          When someone makes a completely stupid comment, like “Drink bleach to kill viruses,” I won’t go and reply “no you wrong!” I’ll reply “For anyone reading, that’s a dangerous advice and here’s why [citations].” I don’t care if the poster then replies with “nuh uh, fake nooz.”

          (I didn’t downvote you, by the way.)
