      Who said I wasn’t also doing that? It’s not mutually exclusive, just a quick way to get a read on people’s sentiment towards them and to try to figure out why people shut down discussion about them so consistently

        Because the truth is easier to find in person rather than through many other people’s filters, and the way you wrote it, it seemed like you thought that was a very stupid suggestion… Glad to hear you think it isn’t

          Yes that’s why science progresses the fastest when nobody’s collaborating and everybody starts from scratch

          … Wait

              Sounds like you expect a bar to never kick out annoying people because then the other customers didn’t get a chance to form their own opinion

                No? Because a bar isn’t a good metaphor and people can be shitty and it’s really easy to see for yourself on the Internet

                    ??? Okay so then they are forming their own opinions…? Which is why it’s a shitty metaphor. I don’t get why you’re using a stupid ass metaphor anyway not I’m going to pretend this stupid ass conversation isn’t happening anymore
